Really charming place to stay! Perfect for a weekend. Staff were brilliant and attentive and breakfast was great! Just to note we did get woken up a bit early by a drinks delivery for the pub underneath but wasn’t too bad

Really enjoyed our stay at the Duke of Cumberland! We’ve been coming to Whitstable for years and are pleased to see that this great pub has finally been given some TLC. Whitstable was definitely in need of a nice boutique hotel in the centre of town!
