Brilliant. 5 stars. Absolutely wonderful. Ask for Karina…read more About a month ago we went to this establishment for the first time in about a year, we used to go a lot more but they discontinued the Friday night buffet and the service had always varied somewhat on occasion and the floor was sticky. But it was cheap good food and loads of it. Thus we were ever so pleased to find that this fine establishment had really transformed. The place was incredibly well managed, the wait for our food was only about 5 minutes to which a well co-ordinated team of young staff quickly and discretely laid all our food. Having been a waiter once myself I do detest when an establishment overbears a youngster with too many plates. Our Hostess Karina was brilliant. She truly made the evening wonderful. She obviously had the place under control and running like clockwork, its so nice to speak to staff who you can completely trust with your order within seconds of meeting them and Karina is certainly that. The food may I say was brilliant authentic British cuisine, everything an Englishmen wants when he enters a pub/ restaurant. They labelled the spicy stuff which thankfully was only a couple of options. Obviously I went for the fish and chips which was marvellous. The barman knew my cocktail order straight away and was as quick with my order. Good to see a young man shaven & not covered in tattoos and silly ear things. Parking is brilliant, plenty of space and you can sit right by the window and watch your pride and joy while chatting with the otherhalf. Toilets clean and luxurious. Brilliant all round. 5 stars!!!!

The price as booked online was quite affordable, but unusually did not include breakfast, for which we paid cash on location. The location is a short drive from the freeway and very quiet. The free Wi-Fi worked well.

Not a bad version of a Holiday Inn: it's in a modern building, but a nice touch is that it…read moreincorporates a 15th century barn, which now houses the restaurant. Service, check-in and cleanliness were all up to scratch, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant is actually rather nice, and not too expensive, and there's a large bar with lots of natural light (and real ale). It's conveniently close to the M20 for an early morning start from Dover (and much nicer than most of the hotels in Dover, which in my experience rather exploit their captive market). I gather that it is popular for wedding parties, so beware if booking at week-ends!

The rooms are basic, the restaurant just OK (though there are some other nearby eating options.). The air conditioning worked fine and the staff was helpful in booking an early morning car to the station. I found the price a bit steep for what you get...but no real complaints.

We had a gorgeous weekend despite the weather, this delightful B&B could not have been more perfect. The house is a large victorian villa five minutes from the centre of town. It is incredibly welcoming and light, the rooms have large windows, period details and to my delight there is even a slightly grumpy cat called Merlin. There are only three bedrooms, each with a different theme. They are all charming, stylish and spotless. We stayed in the French room, complete with country toile wall paper, large brass bed and a gendarme's hat (I'm told it's really called a Kepi). Oh la la! The breakfast was generous, very fresh and decent veggie options. Each table has pretty pots filled with homemade jam. The owner Michael was terribly helpful and attentive, giving us lots of judicious advice about local walks, pubs and places to eat. I'm not surprised one of the other couples staying there decided it was good place to get engaged. If I could give Number 68 six stars I would.
