Top Herne Bay Hotel Reviews

Canterbury Bell, Margate by Marston's Inns

10/10 Excellent

"It was basic but it has everything we needed for the trip. We went to see family and celebrate my in-law birthday at the Canterburry bell last September 19th. It was a great celebration abd we are considering going back with the kids for the Christmas holidays."

Hythe Imperial Hotel Spa & Golf

8/10 Good

"Excellent customer service the rooms were very clean the only let down was the breakfast poor quality napkins also fruit and continental breakfast was very poor the English breakfast was good quality and plentiful they just have to up the other options as for the star establishment it lets it down"

Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was easy to find and the free car park was good. The location is good, just a short walk in to the centre of Canterbury. Staff were helpful but the hotel is a bit 'tired'. I think some refurbishing is going on as the reception area and bar looked clean and modern but the rest had shabby carpet and worn out fittings & fixtures, e.g. our shower rail (the shower was over the bath) was very rusty. However, the bed was comfortable and breakfast was good."

Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Amazing and helpful staff. The steam room is cleaner, fresher with a hose that works😀 Breakfast could be improved, with more varieties of eggs, sunny side up, poached and boiled on display. However when I asked for boiled and poached eggs, I got it done and brought to me. The scrambled eggs were not tasty. The fruits were off."

The Falstaff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here to attend a family event and loved the hotel. The room was lovely, the staff very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was great."

Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone

10/10 Excellent

"I love this place ❤️ sausages"

Broome Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The former home of Lord Kitchener offers large rooms and surroundings with old times charm. Room Kimberly had a specious sitting room with fridge and a smaller bedroom with loft ceiling. Didn't have a breakfast. Tried the small gym and small swimming pool, access code changes daily. The once beautiful grounds need a bit more attention . Free parking, decent price. Highly recommended"
