    accommodating staff
    impressive breakfast
    paint needed
    parking fee
    busy bar

    Accommodating staff greeted us promptly upon arrival, and the spacious room was remarkably clean and comfortable. The breakfast selection was impressive, featuring options like sausages, croissants, and Welsh pastries. While the hotel is conveniently located for trips to Dover, the corridors and rooms could use a fresh coat of paint. the nightly parking fee seemed unwarranted, given the location. a solid choice for a quick stay.

    friendly staff
    small family room

    We really enjoyed our stay, especially the fantastic breakfast that had a range of options. We also visited the charming seaside town of Whitstable, where the stunning views and fresh seafood delighted our family. The staff's friendliness made our experience even better.

    In my wife’s opinion, the family room could be bigger to accommodate all our kids comfortably. A suggestion for improvement would be having larger rooms for families with more than two children.

    The staff here were exceptional, really! ! Always polite and they genuinely wanted to help. Breakfast was solid, hot, and there when you needed it.

    Wasn’t exactly cheap but considering the service, it was alright.

    We stayed for a night with our kids, and the breakfast was a hit with so many options! The staff quickly set up a sofa bed when our room wasn’t ready, which was super helpful. Loved the lovely clean room and the overall comfort!

    Comfortable Family Stay Outside the City

    We enjoyed our two-night stay in a family room, although a bit snug. The chef went above and beyond for my wife's birthday, creating special dishes that delighted us. A bus stop nearby helped us explore the city, but check the schedule beforehand.

    Can recommend for a walk in evening

    Immaculate room, friendly staff, and the breakfast was excellent with my kids loving the crumble eggs. The hotel is conveniently located just a nine-minute walk from the bus stop that takes you into town.

    Everything was top-notch.

    spacious accommodations
    convenient location
    large reception
    unwanted noise

    Comfortable and spacious accommodations with excellent bedding in an inviting environment. Proximity to a BP filling station adds convenience for quick stops, and the large reception area allows for smooth check-in and relaxing spaces, including a bar with decent amenities.

    The noise levels from the nearby A2 can be distracting, especially for light sleepers. The lack of a lift means dragging luggage up the stairs, which can be a hassle if you're on a higher floor. Breakfast variety leaves something to be desired with minimal changes during extended stays. extra parking fees feel unnecessary when the property has ample space.

    The hotel’s lounge area was so cozy and inviting, like a warm hug on a chilly day. I felt instantly at home while relaxing with a cup of tea, surrounded by cheerful décor and friendly faces.

    A lift for easier access would be lovely.

    the holiday inn express was a little gem. the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff were super friendly, especially the chefs and reception team. it’s in a quiet location just off the A2, making it easy to explore the area. a standout for us was the excellent breakfast buffet, featuring a delicious fruit compote.
