Top Whitstable Hotel Reviews

Ashford International Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Had a bit of a problem checking in after a mix-up with someone with the same name who had cancelled their booking and our booking ended up being cancelled. However they sorted it all out on the spot and upgraded our room and gave us drink vouchers and we even got a partial refund. Excellent service considering the confusion, staff were so friendly and helpful sorting it all out for us"

Holiday Inn Express Ramsgate - Minster by IHG

8/10 Good

"The staff was very helpful, the room was clean, but ,unfortunately, with the marks on the carpet. Breakfast was good but with no eggs available for the full English breakfast. It needs to be renovated for the price paid"

King Charles Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here to break up the journey driving from France to Manchester and chose it largely based on price so I wasn't expecting much and therefore was pleasantly surprised. The hotel was very clean, rooms were a good size, beds really comfy and staff welcoming and professional. Kids loved the fishtanks, a great touch. Breakfast was really busy at 9am but the staff worked hard. Cereal, toast, coffee and a full English were all had. My only criticisms are that the room was a bit dated and the bathroom needs a facelift. The shower was powerful enough but the showerhead was fixed and low (I'm only 6ft) so a bit awkward. The tv is small and far away from the bed but that's just me being picky. If I'm in the area again I'll definitely stay here."

Holiday Inn Express Folkestone - Channel Tunnel by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very convenient, ideally located when travelling to France. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was nice and available very early. The staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!"

Marine Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, very friendly staff and great food and drink."
