Overnight stay
One night styay prior to eurotunnel. Needed a simple room to stay before travel and to avoid atrocious travel to Dover due to roadworks. Cost was very good no brianer to stay. Room adequate, all that you needed but a bit bland. But the room served its purpose it was comfortable and clean. Note be careful of shower water is near 80c and burnt my partners toe ! Near to tunnel (15 mins) Breakfast was good but some items were luke warm rather than hot due to stupid heat lamps that in my opinion never really work. Would stay again. Its a pity that the splendor of the original hotel has been vandalised by greed and horrendous 1970s extensions.

Really enjoyed my stay. Place has been revamped. Only downside was waking up at 4:50am to the noise from a room having a bath and the loudest bathroom fan.

It could have been even better if hot water was coming without breaks and I think personally Panadol. Is very basic pain killer should be available for sale in bar or coffee shop . Bed hight is two low and toilet roll quality is to poor the stick with body when you use them .
