"Room excellent very clean just like most Premiere Inns."

We checked in just after two pm. The receptionist was exceptional and very welcoming not only during the check in process but also throughout our stay. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. Our room on the second floor had a wonderful view of the harbour and beach. It was very quiet and we slept very well overnight. My only concern would be that there was no airconditioning so during the summer it would be quite hot although there was a fan provided in the room.The bed was very comfortable but the pillows were a bit naff however that said we still slept very well. The bathroom was clean and functional with soap and shower gel in dispensers and a bath towel, hand towel and shower mat provided. Unfortunately whilst climbing into the bath to take a shower my foot caught onto a grab rail causing me to slip and fall. The handles of the bath are a little too high and I misjudged it when stepping into the bath. Just a warning for others. The receptionist provided me with a plaster as I had cut my foot and filled out an accident form. Breakfast. Probably the most disappointing breakfast I have had in a premier inn. They took our order for the cooked breakfast which incidentally was perfect however that cannot be said for the buffet area which looked positively miserable and not very presentable at all. There was they usual fare available but there is something not quite right about the area where it is and the way it is presented. Would I stay here again? Possibly but I hope they look at the restaurant buffet area.

"Room Fine, Meals below average"

The room was a typical Premier Inn room so no issues there but the corridor smelt of stale meat. The evening menu was limited as they didn't have a lot of items because it was a new menu'? The breakfast was heated up and lukewarm and the service was slow. Room - 4 out of 5. Evening Meal - 3 out of 5 Breakfast - 2 out of 5

"An OK Stay"

We stayed for two nights, with the intention of using this hotel as a base to visit Dover Castle, and walk the White Cliffs, so it's positioning was ideal for these. The room was clean and tidy, as was the bathroom. We were on the second floor, room 237, which is in a quiet part of the hotel, plus it faces the sea, so a lovely view out of the window. The downside is you can hear everything from the room above you. It sounded like a herd of elephants were constantly walking up and down, opening drawers, closing doors. This is the first time I've stayed in a Premier Inn where you could hear patrons in a room above you. The closing of doors on the same floor as you is something you get used to when it's on your own floor, but not on a different floor. It kept me awake until the room above had finally gone to sleep. The staff on reception are lovely and were only too willing to provide us with extra milk and tea bags upon request. We did have an issue on the first night we stayed, or rather the first morning. We could hear someone trying to enter our room. Another patron was trying to get in, but his key wouldn't open the door, obviously forgot what room he was in. A member of staff entered our room without checking that this was in fact the gentleman's room first. My wife was just about to get in the shower, and my young son was still asleep in bed, this could have been embarrassing for all concerned. We complained to the reception staff, who were genuinely shocked and provided us with the information to take it further. Don't let this put you off, the staff are lovely, and the room was looked after, as were we. This I would say was a one off, and won't happen again, but the rooms do need sound-proofing.

Hotel description Wake up shipshape and ready to set sail at our Dover hotel. After a great night's sleep in one of our super comfy new generation bedrooms - featuring an impressive 40" flat screen TV, freshly-updated bathroom with large shower head, and brand new, slumber-inducing, king-size Hypnos bed - you'll be right on hand for the ferry or cruise ships, perfect whether you're channelling your energy into business or pleasure. But it's not all about the high seas. There's plenty here for land lovers too. From the iconic White Cliffs and striking Dover Castle, to the town centre and transport links, to historical Canterbury and the rest of Kent.
