Hotel Botany Bay Hotel

Marine Drive, Kingsgate, Broadstairs, Broadstairs, CT10 3LG, United Kingdom –

Lock in a great price for Botany Bay Hotel – rated 9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Terrific spot right on the clifftop, a decent pub and nice rooms (albeit we had the superior with sea view). The staff were all polite and helpful. It's an extremely popular place, packed from morning till night. On Sunday, the crowds piled in for breakfast. Too busy, tbh. Heaven knows what it's like in Summer

Nick, United Kingdom

The hotel's situation overlooking the Channel between Broadstairs and Margate is its standout feature, making it perfect for a coastal escape. The room was large and very comfortable and the bar/restaurant served really good seaside dishes. Breakfast was pretty good, though they kept running out of ingredients.

“Botany Bay was an ideal place to stay for my one-night visit to Broadstairs for an 80th birthday”

I would have liked a hair dryer in the room. I suppose I could have asked at the front desk but I didn't really have time!
The breakfast was perfect and also served very promptly! I didn't have much time but ordered poached eggs and one sausage! It was perfectly cooked and served piping hot along with the delicious wholewheat toast I'd requested. I was delighted to see that you you use Fair Trade coffee -- sooh good as well as ethical!! Well done!

The food was poor. Sort of Beefeater level. So if you like that kind of thing, you'll be ok. I imagine they have big freezers in the kitchen.

“Highly recommended. Great location and really lovely staff. We'll be back.”
- • Leisure trip

Very little to improve upon so just a couple of comments: instructions on how to make shower run hot - I may have been being thick, but couldn't work out how to make it run hot. At breakfast, when order for tea/coffee etc taken, it would be useful if the staff then let you know they'll be back to take order for hot food. We were a bit unclear as to whether / how this worked. But really a minor issue and the staff were lovely.
The staff and their attitude were outstanding. On arrival, we were greeted with a friendly welcome, clear instructions on time for breakfast etc. The lady on reception was really lovely and walked us to our room. She asked if we'd like fresh milk for the tea/coffee and brought it straight to us in a thermos so it stayed cool and fresh throughout. The room was a good size, quiet and very clean. Staff at breakfast were charming too, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was excellent, hot, freshly cooked and delicious. I think we were fortunate that there wasn't an event on Saturday evening which meant it was particularly quiet.

The hotel is lovely but it is let down by the restaurant. The service is very poor and this was a disappointment. The pillows in the room were awful. One like cardboard and the other needed folding a couple of times due to the lack of any filling
The location is excellent, the room was large and clean and great for a family. It would benefit from a night light
