The location is excellent, staff very friendly. Didn’t use the amenities but walking around everything is awesomely close! Sea room with lovely view, shame some window panels have blown double glazed units, tv signal pixelated, and take your own shampoo and body wash. That said for the money it was fabulous and will definitely stay again! So thank you Kind regards Simon

The hotel is very tired and in need of an update. The 'sea view' room was very basic and tired and the sea view was obscured as the glass in the window had condensation inside the double glazing. The reception staff where excellent and efficient. The hotel served a purpose as we were attending a party in Folkestone but in the future I would look elsewhere for alternative accomodation.
