Not impressed!
We booked a double room and arrived to find that we were in a twin-bedded room, which they were unable to change. They offered us the option of moving us to a double room later in our stay, but we were only staying one night. The towels in the bathroom were stained. When we pointed this out, they were replaced, though the soiled ones were not removed. The waste paper bin had not been emptied before our arrival. The porridge at breakfast was lumpy, which isn't the case at Butlins!

Sightseeing tip:
Short drive from hotel
Do visit Dover Castle. You may want to allow a full day for this, as there is so much there. It does involve a lot of walking.

A cold wet & stormy night in Winter
A cold wet & stormy night in Winter isn't recommended to be in Folkestone, but the greeting & room was warm. Whilst a gale howled in the Channel the resident singer entertained the appreciative crowd. Although not my cup of tea, but that's not why I stayed here. The price & location was excellent, the room and food adequate, the staff friendly. All in all excellent value for money.

Cheap and cheerful
This was a short overnight stop before getting the ferry early in the morning. Plenty of entertainment on offer, very busy and quite friendly atmosphere. Buffet style evening meal was average, food was quite bland and not very exciting but plenty of it. Room was large and clean, bed comfy but tired decor.

Hotel looking very tired and in
Hotel looking very tired and in need of modernisation. The night we stayed there were 3 private functions on and there were over 800 guests .Could not find a parking space anywhere and had to park offsite. Huge queues the next morning for breakfast - out into the lobby and no free tables.

L'equipement de la chambre est
L'equipement de la chambre est trés mauvais ( télé 33 cm, pas de cable, la douche est peu soignée), la literie laisse a désirer (on sent les ressors du matelas, le lit grince quand on fait un mouvement), la bouilloire et l'acces au thé et café gratuit est trés bien. Le hall ainsi que les salons sont trés bien décorés. Le Service non billingue n'est pas acceptable pour un hotel de ce type, les employés ne cherchent même pas a faire des efforts. Les horaires du "Breakfeast" sont un peu juste pour des personnes en vacances. La piscine est bien mais le jaccuzzi n'en est pas un, la salle fitness et le sauna sont trés bien, le saulorium est efficace, mais ce qui n'est pas comprehensible c'est qu'il faille payé pour y acceder et qu'il faille payé encore pour profité du solarium. La salle d'arcade se resume en quelques machines a sous et un babyfoot trés léger. Ce qui fait que cet hotel est bien pour un pied a terre local mais pas pour y rester plus d'une nuit ou deux.
