Top Margate Hotel Reviews

Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"very helpful staff and nice surroundings throughout the hotel, maybe to just sit or have a drink/snack - with nice restaurant/ cafes also to hand to offer a wide selection to guests. Highly recommend!"

Hampton by Hilton Canterbury

8/10 Good

"Clean and tidy hotel and the lady behind the bar on the Saturday night was great. Breakfast was really nice and the room was ok. Shower could do with an upgrade to maybe a lager shower head but it was fine. As its city centre it was quite noisy at the front especially as the hotel is surrounded by noisy bars that are open till late. Lucky for us we were in one of the bars until 1:30 so not to bad but this could be an issue for others."

The Falstaff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff and management very friendly and helpful. Accommodation was very comfortable with a good range of tea/coffee/biscuit selection. Happy Hour with complimentary cheese & biscuits and lots of lounge seating was great. The only issue was that the parking was expensive."
