Top Birchington Hotel Reviews

ABode Canterbury

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel - staff all offered great customer service- rooms had air conditioning which was greatly appreciated in this heat"

Holiday Inn Express Canterbury by IHG

8/10 Good

"Positives: Parking was fine. Garage and car wash next door was cheap. Great local pub in Boughton up the road for excellent other food options if willing to have few mins drive. Negatives: Got placed into a disabled room and the shower curtain was not sufficient to prevent a spill running around the walls yo the doorway. The room fan - although a good power was noisy. (Thought, the rooms had air con but it was only the communal area - my mistake :(. Poor strength Wifi in my room and kept having to log back in."

Holiday Inn Express Ramsgate - Minster by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"For the price the hotel was excellent and had everything we needed including a good breakfast."

Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone

8/10 Good

"Pros: The room was very clean and had all the bits and bobs you need ( hair dryer, fan, iron, tea making stuff, tv and a fridge). The hotel also provided a travel cot for our baby. The room had a great sea view. The hotel it self is interesting, a bit run down and rough round the edges. There was live entertainment in the “ballroom” every night, which was cringy in an amusing way. The location is excellent. The room price was very reasonable (mid week). It is a budget hotel not a luxury one. Negatives: the front desk is very understaffed, we wanted to extend our stay and had to queue at reception, only to then be told we had to book via a phone attached to the wall. When we used the phone we were quoted £10 more than hotels.com. We then had to queue for another 20mins to get new key cards. There was only 1 receptionist for a hotel with hundreds of rooms. The pool was pleasant enough but you have to pay £4 each every single time you use it (even as a paying guest at the hotel). I think that’s a bit cheeky and I’ve never experienced that in a hotel before. They could at least add a single charge to your room for a pool pass instead. We didn’t have breakfast as I thought it was a little over priced. Over all we enjoyed staying there and will definitely be returning."

Burlington Hotel, Best Western Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at the Burlington for only one night but had an excellent experience. The staff was extremely helpful. We ate at the hotel restaurant and had a lovely dinner. The location worked out well for our remaining plans although we wish we'd had time to explore the town."
