Holiday Inn Express Folkestone - Channel Tunnel by IHG
6/10 Okay
"Breakfast selection was standard for a HI express. Unfortunately in this hotels case, all of the bread, and especially the bread rolls were too stale to have eaten. Eating in the restaurant in the evening was a very slow process. Over 45 minutes to receive any food. Some people waited over an hour.
Room was not particularly clean, debris on the carpet, and a general feeling of rushed housekeeping. Found a child’s teddy bear under the bed, and the staff couldn’t have seemed less bothered.
Air conditioning in the room didn’t work, and both bedside lights were so poor that candles would have been a better option. "
"Hotel was very quiet as it was a Sunday - it is also currently being renovated - I wasn’t offered a refurbished room until I asked specifically if any were available after I had already checked in.
Old room was very dated, had a creaky floor, tap dripping and whistling extractor fan in bathroom. I’m not sure if the newer room we had was same grade as much smaller room size and double rather than king size bed. Decor much better and bathroom nice.
Breakfast buffet was poor, my partner gave the full English 3/10 - quite a small portion served. machine coffee like dishwater - not proper filter coffee.
Service was good but there were less than 10 people dining so not sure how it would be on a busy day with one staff member.
Plus point was free parking and only 10 minute walk into town.
Would maybe go back when renovations completed. "
