Top Sandwich Hotel Reviews

Eastwell Manor, Champneys Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel in a stunning location. Stayed in the mews which was a five minute walk from the main hotel. Spa was okay, but small. Plus there was an aqua aerobics class going on in the pool blasting Wham. Not very relaxing. Food and drink were as you'd expect from such a location. Recommended"

Hythe Imperial Hotel Spa & Golf

8/10 Good

"It is a very high class hotel with a good atmosphere. The restaurant is a very convenient for the hotel guests. Location is perfect for a seaside holiday."

Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone

10/10 Excellent

"Easy stay, always spacious rooms and great location."

The Falstaff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a 'cozy' room, meaning tiny, but it was nicely furnished with a TV and nice bathroom with a strong shower. The receptionist staff was friendly and helpful, pointing out the happy hour at the bar. 2 for 1 deal plus a cheese plate. The hotel is centrally located with parking behind ( parking in Canterbury is expensive). Very close to the town center and restaurants. Decent breakfast choices. The 14th century building successfully marries old and modern."

Holiday Inn Express Canterbury by IHG

8/10 Good

"Value for money. Clean and tidy room. Comfortable restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Staffs are polite."

Holiday Inn Dover by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful!"
