Top Whitstable Castle and Gardens Hotel Reviews

Marine Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good breakfast"

The Seaview Snug

8/10 Good

"The Sea View Snug was really well thought-through as a place to stay - a lot of effort has been put in to make the rooms as comfortable as possible. The apartment was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was well equipped, with everything we needed. Also there are nice touches such as information on the Kent coast area, books, and board games to play. It's a good location near to the harbour area and beach. There is a sea-view from the lounge & kitchen, so it was nice to sit and have a morning coffee looking out. When we return to Whitstable, we'll defintately consider rebooking."

Duke of Cumberland

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, lovely friendly staff with very nice breakfast. Room was very clean and spacious, would 100% stay again."

Tideway is a spacious three-bedroom house boasting private parking and the beach on your doorstep.

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely week in Tideway. We were two couples with two dogs and all 6 of us had a great time. The location is perfect, right on the beach and within 5 minute walk of both Whitstable town centre and Tankerton slopes. The property has everything that you need for a perfect stay away from home and the Parking is extremely useful. Check-in was very simple. Special thanks to the owners for letting us park at the property before the check in time to enable us to meet our lunch booking with minimal fuss We will definitely be coming back."

Seascape, Whitstable

8/10 Good

"Perfect location every convenient for town and harbour. Head to the Neptune Bar for good food and watched the sunset. Property had everything you needed but could do with a lick of paint mainly the hallway and stairs. As a base the house is well situated and the road was quiet although it was the Oyster weekend as the train station is at the top of the road this time round the weekend was busy. But during the week it was quiet. If you have a low car the parking can prove tricky as it is down a lane and to the back but you can mainly park on the road as there was always a space. Would stay in this property again."

Hotel Continental

10/10 Excellent

"Great Hotel, great location have stayed a few times now and always a great place to stay. Breakfast is fantastic along with the staff and we are going back in November."

Pilgrim's Lookout Whitstable Holiday Home

8/10 Good

"Clean and great location. Appreciate providing extra toilet rolls, tea & coffee. Needs to provide fans or air conditioning during the hot summer months."

Little Beach House by Bloom Stays - a holiday let that sleeps 8 guests in 3 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"The house and amenities were amazing - studiously clean, comfortable, and very well turned out. The house is tastefully decorated to a high quality, and the hot tub and garden space is lovely. Cornhole is a great bonus! The beach hut is a brilliant advantage - so lovely, and the perfect place to relax and watch the amazing sunsets. Highly recommended."

The Telephone Exchange
