Lovely place to stay, staff are friendly, professional and helpful. Food is great (both the restaurant and the hotel breakfast), location is amazing. Only negative was the road to get there which was completely blocked up due to cars parked on either side - not at all the fault of the hotel and nothing they could have done, it was a relief to get into the hotel car park! Will definitely stay here again next time we’re in the area.

Fantastic location, literally next to botany bay, 10mins walk to another beach and minutes drive away from Broadstairs itself and Margate. Lovely hotel, the family suite was very large and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful with many options. We would definitely stay again. Only minus was the cleaning, it wasn't dirty per se, but spots missed.

The hotel was great, but nothing fancy. Small room with a TV, coffee machine and kettle was good but unfortunately no fridge. Restaurant and bar were lovely which is good as there’s not many other places of go/eat in the area. Dinner finishes early which we unfortunately missed. Breakfast has a great selection. 2 minute walk to the beach from the hotel was fantastic.

A really great stay, start to finish. The breakfast and the daily menus were both comprehensive and the meals we had were extremely fresh, hot and tasty. Our room had all we needed and was clean, well stocked and was serviced each day. All the staff we came across were friendly and obliging. We had an enjoyable stay
