Amazing staff
The staff are amazing. If it’s a busy weekend in Ramsgate request a room in the back of the hotel and you won’t even know it’s loud outside.

Lovely beach worth a paddle
The hotel is right on the harbour and we had a sea view looking out on all the boats and yatchs lite up at night. The lovely sandy beach is just a short stroll beyond the harbour which also houses the pavilion for food and drinks from breakfast right up to supper with fairy lights on the balcony.you can actually walk all the way around the harbour in full circle.the buses at the harbour run every 8 mins clockwise and anticlockwise serving Ramsgate, Margate and Broadstairs so you can catch them all in one trip. Didn't opt for the breakfast so I can't comment on that but the staff we meet were really friendly and helpful.

this hotel is ideally placed for the nightlife you require in Ramsgate. The rooms at the front of the hotel might suffer with the noise from the local bars late at night.
The staff at the hotel were exceptionally helpful and friendly.

Great location
Great welcome, staff very helpful, room ready early. Room 101 nice view across the harbour very spacious. Bathroom dated but clean and shower was excellent.
No mirror near plug socket to dry your hair, however we were loaned a free standing one from reception.
Only thing that let this room down was the bed it was uncomfortable and very creaky however the pillows were comfortable and the bed linen spotlessly clean.

On entering the room the window had been left open so we had to kill about 20 bugs that were in the room.

The best ever reception staff in Ramsgate. Clean room with a wonderful view of the harbour. We felt like very special guests. Booked this for a festival in Margate so it was a short taxi ride there and back and staff so kindly helplful in organising transport. I definitely recommend it.

Brilliant location
Nice hotel excellent location staff really friendly and helpful only downside is no air con on hot days and if you have your window. Open you can here the music from local bars til 4am on a weekend but this isn't the hotels fault and it wasn't enough to keep us awake. On the whole we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily come back.
