I was very impressed with the room, it was spacious, clean and modern. The location was perfect, the pub downstairs had a great vibe, and the breakfast was 5/5. The only small thing I would say is it’s quite noisy outside, which you would expect from that location as it’s so central. Thank you for a great stay, I’ll definitely visit again.

Lovely hotel,room decor was lovely,clean and had all that we needed ,central to Whitstable and very close to seafront ,hotel staff excellent ,only downside is no on site parking and the main car parks are a bit pricey ,so if you can find a space in one of the side streets and not to far to walk to hotel .

Superb hotel, room was excellent quality newly decorated, great shower, even a couple beers included. Staff very friendly, breakfast I had English day 1, eggs Florentine day 2 and a salmon cream cheese and chives bap day 3, all included in the rate. There are very few hotel options in Whitstable and this must be the best. Right by beach, short walk to harbour, middle of the shopping street full of small boutiques. Highly recommended. Be aware there are steep steps to the bedrooms!

Lovely staff very friendly & helpful, near the harbour & beach & in the middle of the town Our bedroom was lovely , really comfortable bed & pillows , the only thing i would suggest is perhaps add a small fridge , we were given complimentary water & beer in the room but no where to chill either. Also the steps are extremely steep which some of the older guests had problems with
