Loved the Dover. Super clean and comfy and roomier than I thought it would be. Bathroom / shower looked new.

Large family room with great location

I liked the large family room- a double bed and 3 single beds. It's hard to find something for a family traveling with 3 kids. Only problem was that the room smelled when we arrived. Breakfast was basic, but good: toasted white bread, jam, cereal, milk, tea, coffee, yoghurt. Location is great.

What you get for the moneh

Room was serviceable and what you’d expect for the money. Gentleman at front desk was great and made wonderful recommendations for local restaurants. The “continental breakfast” was extremely disappointing. Stale cereal or one slice of toast per person and some warm yogurt. No fruit or anything else.
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Short and quick stay

Value for money. Overall condition of the hotel was ok but there is room for improvement w.r.t cleanliness and furniture. Reception staff was quick and nice. 10 mins walk to Victoria bus/train station.
Siladitya, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It was ok. Old carpet on the floor, tiny bathroom and no AC, which made sleeping tough with the heat.
Lindsay, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible room for a lot of money

We had to climb up five flights of stairs to our room, which had no air conditioning and was a 10 x 10 room without a toilet. We had a shared toilet in the hallway. The stairways were not safe overall the hotel was not worth anywhere close to what we paid for it

6/10 Good

The staff at this hotel were amazing. They were friendly and so helpful, BUT this hotel is dated and the twin room I was in was very small, as in I just had a few feet on one side of the bed. The location was good and I felt safe and was walkable to the sites I wanted to visti.
