"A good choice."

If you're at the front of the hotel you're likely to get a sea view, especially on a higher floor. Or if you're at the back, as I was, you'll get a nice 'white cliffs' view! Friendly staff and no issues at all during a nice one night stay.

"Awesome stay"

I always booked premier inn for my family. I always booked 2 family room,but this is the first time they arrange 2 of the family rooms right next to each other, I am surprised by their sweet arrangement ,that’s makes an easier stay. The free breakfast is such a good deal during term break. The room is clean and tidy as usual,I was shocked by the nice sea view of the room, I will come again definitely!

"Overnight Stay En Route Europe"

What a fantastic location and hotel . We were visiting mainland Europe so planned an overnight stop off before departing for France in the morning. Easy to find the parking space upon arrival. Everything was absolutely perfect. Louise the manageress and her team were so so friendly and super helpful. Nothing at all was too much trouble or effort for Louise or her team . The location is perfectly suited to the nearby Ferry Terminal in Dover or Eurotunnel a few miles away . We had a lovely spacious room which was immaculately presented and spotlessly clean . Our room benefited from a sea view which really was the highlight of the stay . We will definitely return to Dover Central again. Massive recommendation to anyone wanting to stay in this area or for an overnight stop before heading to Europe. Again a huge thank you to Louise and her team . We can’t wait to come back . Absolutely Fabulous Neil C

"Comfortable and Spacious (accessible)"

This was our second stay at the Dover Central. It was a comfortable and pleasant break with good sleep quality and ease of access. We were in an accessible room (Number 4), and it was spacious and the accessible shower room was really well laid out. The room was quiet, and the temperature control was good. There was also loads of hot water. The parking on site was a reasonably priced extra, and was more than offset by the free breakfast booking deal we recieved. The 3 pm check-in is pretty strictly held, but we didn't need to wait long after our arrival.

"Poor sleeping/room temperature"

Dinner great. Breakfast good. Only problem I had this time was the room was too hot and you couldn’t cool it down so poor sleep all round. Had the fan (provided in room) turned on and didn’t feel anything at all from it. We always have had a great night sleep with premier inn
