Nice but not great
Nice hotel but the small details matter. Clocks hadn’t been changed in the room a week after they changed so my wife rushed for breakfast unnecessarily thinking we might miss it. The bathroom had a slightly unpleasant smell. The lamp on the desk didn’t work. There were no spare towels in the wardrobe despite it saying there were in the welcome letter. Nice hotel with nice staff but lacks that quality and attention to detail to be great

A lovely, helpful hotel.
We were travelling for a funeral and the staff at the hotel were super accomodating. The hotel building has vintage charm, whilst inside is modern, clean and comfortable. The only thing I could suggested would be more vegan options.

Good and Bad thing about the hotel
The hotel is lovely! It’s well kept for a very old hotel. (Lift can take ages) The staffs are lovely and made sure guests enjoyed their stays. There are some things I wish I was informed before booking. Such as parking, while the hotel has parking. It does not specify that you need to book a space as there are only a total of 15 spaces which is not a lot at all. And this is booked by the spa and hotel individuals. Causing us to pay additional for a car park. This should be addressed as we witness staffs face abuse from customers over this. When it is not staff fault. And I could have booked a space for myself 4 months prior to the check in date. The spa facilities is lovely, but the word “spa pool” is misleading. As it was just a hot tub.

Absolutely loved this place! We got a free upgrade which was wonderful and we felt very spoilt. We had some afternoon drinks from the bar and then had a lovely dinner at the restaurant. We had a lot of space in our room which was so nice and a beautiful big bath, which I took advantage of to soak my aching legs. We had to catch the ferry to Calais, but it was only a 10mins drive down to the port. Easy sailing! Would recommend this place to anyone planning on staying in Dover.
