Beautiful Victorian hotel right on Deal seafront.
Pros:

On arrival we had a free upgrade so our room looked over the beach and Deal Pier. The air con had been put on so the room was lovely and cool. It was very well appointed, comfortable and everything was immaculate.

Cons:

Nothing!

Sea front
Pros:

The location couldn't be better, but our room was very small, we had a twin with very single beds, i.e., small, which my sister nearly rolled off in the night!
On the up side, it had an iron/ board fridge and microwave.
Okay for 2 nights but no more than that.

Cons:

The size of the room and beds.

Hier hat man an alles gedacht, um den Aufenthalt möglichst angenehm zu machen
Pros:

Super Lage, dabei ruhig, sehr gutes Zugangssystem mit Code statt Schlüssel. Sehr gute Ausstattung im Zimmer mit Klimaanlage, grossem Bildschirm, Kühlschrank und Mikrowelle, alles sehr sauber.

Cons:

Die Eckbadewanne zum Duschen war etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig...

Night out with friends.
Pros:

The rooms were so well equipped, fridge, microwave, TV, tea/coffee facilities, gorgeous bathroom, the outside belies what’s on the inside, but I believe it is going to be decorated after the season. Orla, greeted us and was so lovely and warm.

Cons:

Nothing.

Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Pros:

Alles so, wie erwartet und gerne wieder, sollten wir wiederkommen.

Cons:

Die Anbindung an öffentliche Verkehrsmittel - aber das hat weniger mit dem B&B zu tun als mit dem Ort.

Will make an opportunity to return again soon!
Pros:

Beautifully decorated and furnished, characterful and charming, and it was lovely to be somewhere which isn’t a familiar chain! The beach is fabulous and right in front of the hotel, excellent location! Very helpful and friendly staff, spotlessly clean. Will definitely find an opportunity to return soon. Went to Dunkerleys for dinner and had fabulous oysters and scallops.

Cons:

The only slight catch was there was no breakfast served but the upside of that is there are lovely places nearby and it meant the hotel didn’t smell of breakfast all day!
