    Folkstone is a very friendly place to visit, loads of places to eat and drink. The only downside was the food stall on the harbour closed too early it would have been nice if they stayed open longer.

    Thge usual nasty little Englanders prevail in this most Brexit-voting of districts. However there are some nice harbourside pubs which were well-run and friendly (I would particularly recommend The Harbour Inn which despite it's rather busy location is an excellent pub, welcoming and well-run. Folkestone is a town in two halves. I stayed in the harbour area when I would have enjoyed staying nearer the venue I was attending, and would have enjoyed better facilities in the mid town area, I would conclude.

    Folkestone has a lot to offer especially because it's close to other places as many coastal it is suffering a bit I would also say if you don't like steps or extremely steep hills even in the town centre then it may not be for you.

    Lovely central location with something for everyone.

    Lovely central location with something for everyone. Lovely walks as a whole family. A good range of shops, restaurants, pubs and bars. Canterbury was 20-30 minute drive away which was lovely as we went on a boat tour and saw the stunning cathedral. We were able to get to mist places on foot and there was a lot to do. Parks, beach, harbor arm, cinema, shops and lots of lovely sights. We had a lovely Greek dinner on the harbor arm, however, it was quite expensive. We had a chicken gyros, a lamb one, a chicken gyros bowl, chips and some hummus with pitta and it was £60.

    It wasn't my first choice (I was catching the channel ferry and I would have preferred to have been in Dover) but what a pleasant surprise. I was travelling with my dog and I was amazed at how dog friendly the town was. I particularly liked the coastal walks and I enjoyed reading the informational plaques around the town. One thing I found so touching was Remembrance Road adorned with the handmade poppies. I was struck by how much effort the council has devoted to highlighting Folkestone's attractions and making them accessible to visitors. I enjoyed just wandering around the town with my dog and appreciating it's history and sights. Folkestone turned out to be a serendipitous experience and I'm glad that I didn't stay in Dover.

    On arrival we were upgraded to a lovely room with four poster bed. Staff were friendly and helpful. During dinner our waiter was very apologetic that we needed to wait for our starter and couldn’t have done more to look after us. The food was delicious. We needed to leave early in the morning and so staff opened up the restaurant early for us so that we could still have a cooked breakfast before we left. The manager asked us frequently how our stay was. We would use this hotel again if in the area.

    Great location; close to a big supermarket, lovely restaurants, the beach, some good pubs, the centre of Folkestone, the harbour and a great base from which to visit the Kent castles and the RH&DR (lovely miniature railway)The flat is freshly decorated and well furnished. The owner is super helpful and very knowledgable about the best places to eat and to visit......there are lots of both! Free off street parking in front of the flat is very convenient.

    Wonderful beachside location, nicely decorated & new facilities, full working kitchen, great views, very spacious flat. Lovely little touches i.e. choice of books, games, intro to area, blankets, cushions. Good amount of cleaning products in kitchen. One of best places we've stayed in Folkestone. To flag there are several flights of stairs and no lift so not one if you're less mobile or elderly who may struggle with getting heavier bags up there.

    Friendly, welcoming, helpful staff. Nice bar and outdoor seating for eating and drinking. Fair size, clean bedroom and bathroom. Decent full English breakfast. Very short walk from beach, shops, pubs and restaurants. If you can park outside the hotel, they can get your parking ticket sorted out for you very cheaply. Ideal for the Folkestone half marathon - the start line is a 5 min walk away. Very close for the Skabour festival too.

    This hotel is cheap for a reason. The car parking was a joke no where near enough spaces for the amount of guests. The check in was very matter of fact with no niceties. The shared areas were very dirty and chaotic. The room was a very welcomed bonus as it was clean and spacious enough for a family of 4. All in all this hotel served a purpose for us only staying the night for a very early ferry the next morning.

    The Gentleman on Reception called Mark was very helpful & polite. I would say Mark is the nicest person I've met on a Reception desk. We paid extra to upgrade our room, and we was extremely happy with our upgrade. The hotel is very lovely and clean, with great staff. I've been coming to Folkestone for years, and I didn't even know this hotel existed. I will definitely be coming back to stay at this hotel.

    Arranged to stay for 1 night at the last minute for a stop off. Had a great stay without knowing much about Folkestone or the area around the hotel. It's safe to say that we will be back at some point. The staff that we met were very helpful and welcoming. The room itself was amazing. Very clean, modern, and plenty of space. Amenities available in the room were great, lots of sockets and USB points.

    An excellent hotel for an overnight stay enroute to an early Eurotunnel crossing. Great location with easy access to Folkestone sea front, comfortable room, spotlessly clean. A great value alternative to many that we looked at. The local Bouverie Tap pub did excellent food and drinks.

    Charming, relatively old family-run hotel right on the Folkestone seafront. The age of the building does show through in places, but not in a way that seems too shabby or run-down - just gives it a bit of character, in my opinion. Staff is super friendly too.
