Great for a cheap stay before crossing over the channel, but accommodation was very basic. One pillow, thin mattresses. Very basic, hotel in need of repair/refurb but its okay enough.

This property was wonderful. We arrived later in the evening and the chef kept the kitchen open for us. The staff could see we were exhausted and brought our dinner directly to our room despite not offering in-room dining. Wonderful stay!

Recommended and close to shops and sightseeing.
Despite reading a few negative reviews and thinking of budget this hotel delivers. Great reception area and the property especially, has spaciousness on it's side. Great for limited mobility it was right next to the harbour/arm. Staff helpful, quick, inviting and friendly. Room did need a minor uplift but looked like some of this had been actioned. Highly recommended and fantastically reasonably priced for people on a budget.

Glory days
The hotel is a a reminder of it's hayday. I can't complain about the home (guests that wat up at 6am to watch soaps is a different story) but if you want Hilton quality, stay at the Hilton, if you want a bed for the night with dated decor.... Perhaps a little unfair, to referb this massive hotel it would have to be done floor by floor, but by the time they have done, the previous floors would be outdated. It's an odd one, I believe if you had each floor as a theme floor they would have more success but it does feel like the hotel is catered for the 1/2 pint shandy coach tours but has potential to be boutique and budget.

Was one of the cheaper places in Folkestone. Great convenient location near the harbour and a short uphill walk to the Town. Suitable for the purpose of getting your head down for a few hours, bathroom and room clean. Breakfast wasnt anything to shout about, but stopped a gap. Place just feels a bit dated, even saw the Congo go through the bar one night... Sort of reminds me of a caravan park.. No complaints about the place.. just wasn't that appealing for me.

Probably gets a bad rap but I found it fine given the price and for how long I was there. Room seemed clean, view was awesome. Reception was efficient. Massive hotel probably seen it’s best days but I’d go back.
