Gutes Hotel in idealer Lage zum Fährhafen von Dover
Pros:

Das Zimmer war angenehm groß, sauber und insgesamt komfortabel. Besonders praktisch ist die Nähe zum Fährhafen von Dover, wodurch sich das Hotel hervorragend für eine Übernachtung vor oder nach einer Fährüberfahrt eignet.

Auch die guten Parkmöglichkeiten direkt am Hotel sind ein Pluspunkt. Besonders positiv ist außerdem, dass Ladesäulen für Elektroautos zur Verfügung stehen.

Insgesamt ein guter Aufenthalt und für eine Zwischenübernachtung absolut empfehlenswert.

Cons:

Das Zimmer und insbesondere das Badezimmer sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen und könnten eine Modernisierung vertragen. Sauber war aber alles.

Etwas ärgerlich war, dass das vorab angefragte Babybett bei unserer Ankunft noch nicht im Zimmer bereitstand. Gerade nach einem langen Anreisetag und bei einer späten Ankunft mit Baby war das etwas nervig und hätte besser vorbereitet sein können.

Pros:

Great hotel. Great restaurant. Great breakfast. Great people.

Cons:

Bathroom terrible. Far too small and terribly uncomfortable for both showering and bathing. You need to remove bath and make some, if not all rooms a walk in shower only. Change door to sliding door so that you can at least have more room in the room .

Excellent convenient location
Pros:

Quiet, comfortable room in very convenient location for visiting family. Several lounge areas available for meeting people and having refreshments. The very accommodating breakfast chef is still there after 36 years!

Cons:

Have stayed here many times and was disappointed to find that Bella Italia has closed. The current restaurant was not as comfortable nor as gluten free friendly. The bathroom is far too small since redecoration as the basin protrudes into the room causing frustration.
