Perfect place to stop over prior to ferry or Chunnel crossing. Not too far to walk into town although it’s uphill all the way back. Friendly staff and very welcoming.

Friendly staff, convenient location from Port Lympne, not far from town centre, sky tv. However, very weak WiFi, room very small and needs some TLC. Was handy for the night but glad I used my Tesco points and didn’t spend my money. I think from other reviews it has just been taken over, so will be given a makeover soon.

Had a twin bed room with my daughter for 2 nights. Room and beds were ok and in a quiet area apart from a few other guests who were quite noisy. Bit disappointed that the kitchen was not in use as we had a very long journey. Staff were very nice and helpful

A super two day break away.

This small hotel is clean and friendly. The food is all freshly prepared and cooked for each order. It was very tasty and well presented. Owners and staff are friendly and welcoming. They also welcome, for a small charge, well behaved dogs which is great if you own a pet that you cannot leave at home with someone else. Our little dog loved the area and there was a nice walk close by.

End of an era at the Castle Hotel

Hotel was in the last few days of ownership before handover to new owners. Old owners were pleasant enough, but I felt we got the minimum acceptable service. We had stayed twice before, but it made no difference. Minimum acceptable service means Average Star Marking.

The hotel is currently being run by a stand in family, previously from the hotel/pub industry. Extremely friendly and welcoming as well as pet friendly, I can recommend it to anyone. The hotel is ideally situated for Channel Tunnel visitors which is only a 10min drive away.

A lovely location, very pleasant and friendly staff. The rooms are not fancy but neither is the price. The bed and pillows were very comfy although ironed bedding and a valance sheet would have improved the look. Very good value for money.

A two night stay away. The room was a nice size. The carpark is shared with village, so the first night we had to park on the road. The checking in times are strict, as the bar/ pub closes.
