The staff at the front desk were exceptional; always friendly and kind in answering questions and always smiling as we passed by. The breakfasts were always served promptly and as we ordered by a cheerful staff.

Very cosy room with large comfy bed and excellent hot shower. Location meant that good restaurants were literally next door or within 10 min walk. And breakfast/brunch was easily sorted due to the many cafes nearby. Great tv options needed on winter nights with Netflix, iPlayer, and many other options. Had difficulty with heating when we arrived on a very cold day, so I texted the owner and he promptly responded. He turned heating on remotely and turned up later to check that all was OK. So although there is no staff on site, you knew there was someone to help as necessary.

FAQs about hotels in Kent

The Peaceful Garden of England

The so-called Garden of England, Kent is known for its lush greenery. Although within easy reach of London, it’s a world away from the hustle and bustle. So much so, that at many Kent hotels, spa facilities come as standard. One is, unsurprisingly, in the sophisticated spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells.

Nearby in Lamberhurst is medieval Scotney Castle, surrounded by a moat. Also moat-bound and with Kent accommodation available on Booking.com are Hever Castle and Leeds Castle (the latter in a village not to be confused with the city of Leeds).

The county town is Maidstone, but its most famous city is Canterbury, whose magnificent cathedral is the seat of the Church of England’s highest post. Rochester also has an impressive cathedral.

To the west is Margate, one of the top Kent seaside towns. Other resorts with long beaches are Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Deal. Around the coastline, Dover is known for its white cliffs, castle and the ferries crossing the English Channel to France. To the west is the Channel Tunnel by Folkestone, and Eurostar trains from St Pancras also stop at Ashford inland.

Other popular Kent attractions are the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch railway, Brands Hatch motor racing circuit, and the conical oast houses so typical of this part of England.

My wife and I had an amazing experience at Rowhill Grange Hotel & Utopia Spa. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making our stay truly special. The spa was perfect for relaxation, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and luxurious. A big thank you for their excellent service – we accidentally left an item behind, and they quickly arranged for its return. Highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing getaway! We’ll definitely be back!

We went into Canterbury and booked a trip on the river, very relaxing and you could take drinks on the punt with you. Great shops and pubs with restaurants to choose from. We cycled the next day to Whitstable using the crab and winkle cycle path and had a brilliant day.

Location was fantastic! Great lively atmosphere. Beautiful place. Had a good family time. Visited the Folkestone Harbour and the beach. Easy to get around, walking around feels soo because of lively, happy atmosphere around the whole of Folkestone. Many Summer events going on including outside Cinema! Water fountains for kids. The old tracks of Folkestone Station is a walkway with beautiful wildflower beds under a Canopy leading straight to the beach feels soo unique and nice. Loved the visit!

Surprising amount to see and do in and around Dover.

Surprising amount to see and do in and around Dover. City centre shopping not great but the Castle, white cliffs and surrounding area had many, very good sites for visitors. If visiting the castle - highly recommended - take good walking shoes as it covers a lot of area and has a lot of steps and slopes. A full day out in itself.

We didn't see much of Ashford as we were there for one night and off to Port Lympne Safari Park the next day which was 20 minutes away. It's an ideal place to stay as there's a lot to explore nearby and staff at the hotel were very helpful with suggestions as to what places to visit next time such as Leeds Castle, Go Ape, Howletts Wild Animal Park and you could pop over to France as well! Plenty to explore and I hope to go back very soon.

I took my wife away for a surprise break from the kids for our anniversary. I saw the Pantiles on Google and thought it'd be a nice little experience. The hotel was brilliant, we went for a couples massage at the Lotus Wellness Studio which was brilliant as we can never usually find a place where we can be in the same room together but they accommodated our request at a good price! We went to the Pantiles the next day and it was a very pleasant area albeit a lot shorter than expected. It is mainly food based which is fine but I expected more shops in the area, if you're going for nice food and a drink then it's perfect. We went to Bills which was brilliant for my dietary requirements (I had never heard of it before but supposedly it's a massive chain, wouldn't have known otherwise). The waitresses were lovely and took the time with a tricky customer such as myself, they were full of advice on the area and were well humoured, also music was great! The other side of town there is a decent sized shopping centre which looked newish. This town is great for dog lovers, very noticeable how many dogs there were. Traffic is a small issue for such a quiet town, I will caveat there seemed to be a fair amount of roadworks/diversions so maybe this is the knock on effect. Only slight downside was that a couple of shops we searched on Google were no longer there so needs an update I think! Overall it was exactly what we needed for a quiet getaway in a nice area with lovely people.

Whitstable is a wonderful town, with harbour and sea views, great shops and a nice harbourside market. We enjoyed the Oysters and whelks from the seafood stalls, had a lovely coffee at Hatshats and walked to Tankerton Slopes, a lovely coastal walk. On a separate day, we visited the castle and the gardens, well worth a visit. It was our first visit to Whitstable and we came away very impressed with this lovely Kentish coastal town.

There are some really nice places to eat. The Mexican and. sargasso on the harbour. Don't be deterred by the smell as you approach. It smells like a sewer but in fact it is just seaweed that has been washed up and the smell disappears as you get to the restaurants. The beach is fabulous but Dreamland was a big disappointment

I have been to Deal many years before and had happy memories. I was somewhat disappointed on arrival ( around 11:45am) because the shops were generic and the place looked less lively compared with before. We parked in the middle of town. However the next day we approached town from the northern end and there were a lot more Indie shops which we had not noticed the day before. I don't think Deal is ideal for families because there is not much there for children, but if like me you are into retail therapy there is plenty to keep you happy. Approach from the north and you will see the best side.
