Lovely stay at the Ashford International Hotel
It was a lovely 1 night stay with family and a dog. The rooms were large and comfortable and the staff very helpful. We had dinner in the bar area. There were no vegan options but the staff were able to adjust the ingredients on the menu items. The gym was excellent!

Hotel is good value, restaurant is not.
The room itself was clean, and generally comfortable although the pillows were big and firmer than average so not particularly comfortable. The service overall was also good, although a whole table of food from a meeting was left on the table outside a meeting room for at least a full day (at least one evening, night and the following afternoon). The spa facilities are limited, but for the price of the room and the spa it is still very good value. Only real complaint would be the dinner at the restaurant- we had dinner once there and it is moderately expensive, but considering the portion sizes this pricing seemed really off - we each had a starter, main and dessert and each of these was really noticeably lacking in portion size, and so to pay slightly higher prices and receive the amount of food - which was not even particularly great in itself - was really disappointing. We mentioned this to the waitress and she said that a lot of people had the same complaint and that was it, so it seems that it is a long term, recurring issue. I would stay in the hotel again but not eat dinner there again at all. For our other night’s dinner we found a local restaurant (Stubb’s) which was a little more expensive but far superior in quality and genuinely exquisite and worth every penny.

Convenient for the Tunnel
Used the hotel while travelling to the Eurotunnel so was a brief stay and we were up and on the road at 05:30 the next morning. All I can comment is our stay was ok.

Great hotel
Had a lovely stay here. We used the swimming pool and bar for food and restaurant for breakfast. The sauna and steam room are good but jacuzzi is was too small and not very warm. Word of warning also, it is open to health club members and while they were pleasant enough, they will not be to everyone’s taste. Some hotel clients also were messing around in the pool during a scheduled adult session and when I alerted a staff member they didn’t seem bothered in the slightest. I’m not a complainer but these ‘adults’ were barging through the swim lanes playing tug while people were swimming lengths and splashing excessively. Would have been a problem in an open session.
