The location was excellent, within comfortable walking distance of the centre of town and the coastal walk. I had an ensuite room which was spacious, well appointed with the necessary coffee and tea etc, and clean. I'm a theatre nurse and a little OCD about cleanliness; the room and hotel satisfied my picky expectations.

Everything was what we expected it to be. It was a lovely hotel, value for money and the staff were above and beyond helpful, I can't complain about anything. There were a lot of building/renovation works going on and I truly believe that once this has been completed this will make the hotel complete, exceptional and an asset to the area's first class list.

It wasn't my first choice (I was catching the channel ferry and I would have preferred to have been in Dover) but what a pleasant surprise. I was travelling with my dog and I was amazed at how dog friendly the town was. I particularly liked the coastal walks and I enjoyed reading the informational plaques around the town. One thing I found so touching was Remembrance Road adorned with the handmade poppies. I was struck by how much effort the council has devoted to highlighting Folkestone's attractions and making them accessible to visitors. I enjoyed just wandering around the town with my dog and appreciating it's history and sights. Folkestone turned out to be a serendipitous experience and I'm glad that I didn't stay in Dover.DeborahSaudi Arabia - 10Scored 10

Folkestone has reasonable shopping facilities for a small town. It is close to some very beautiful areas of Kent, like the Elham Valley. It has excellent train service on the high speed trains from London Canterbury is about 45 minutes drive away and well worth a visit. If you enjoy walking in scenic countryside Folkestone is surrounded by it. The town is hilly and getting down to the harbour means negotiating a fairly steep gradient, so might be less enjoyable or more challenging for people with mobility problems. There is a bus service. There are restaurants, pubs, places to eat out but if you're on a budget there is an Asda, a Sainbury and a Lidl store in the town centre where you can buy food. There is a good bus service to Dover and to Canterbury.

- From £132.75 per night8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 513 reviewsOn arrival we were upgraded to a lovely room with four poster bed. Staff were friendly and helpful. During dinner our waiter was very apologetic that we needed to wait for our starter and couldn’t have done more to look after us. The food was delicious. We needed to leave early in the morning and so staff opened up the restaurant early for us so that we could still have a cooked breakfast before we left. The manager asked us frequently how our stay was. We would use this hotel again if in the area.karenSwitzerland
- From £107.10 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 2,371 reviewsThe meals were good but outside events interrupted their flow. For example, Rotary breakfasts and dinners had priority over guest lunches, so we often went elsewhere, rather than wait for them to end. The hotel location on the leas is outstanding for little walks after breakfast or lunch. Folkestone itself offers very few amenities and they are all closed on Sunday. The staff however, was outstanding. I have nothing but praise for their willingness to go the extra mile.
LarryCanada - From £55 per night7.3Scored 7.3GoodRated good· 657 reviewsAs I have a mobility scooter we were relocated to a ground floor room. This, for obvious reasons, was not the executive room for which I had paid. Also, we did not get the continental breakfast for which I had paid, at £6 per person per night. So, I reckon we are due a partial refund. I have to say, however, that John was superb and a credit to the hotel. He helped me get my scooter in and out of the hotel, as all entrances had steps.RRichardUnited Kingdom
- From £72.20 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 1,748 reviewsFriendly, welcoming, helpful staff. Nice bar and outdoor seating for eating and drinking. Fair size, clean bedroom and bathroom. Decent full English breakfast. Very short walk from beach, shops, pubs and restaurants. If you can park outside the hotel, they can get your parking ticket sorted out for you very cheaply. Ideal for the Folkestone half marathon - the start line is a 5 min walk away. Very close for the Skabour festival too.
MatthewUnited Kingdom - From £124 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 3,661 reviewsReally lovely room and a friendly welcome to Folkestone. The room was huge, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the location was convenient for our bike tour of the Cantii Way. We didn't eat at the hotel, but were close to all of the restaurants and pubs in town and had no issues storing our bikes (a huge relief!). Definitely planning on visiting Folkestone again and staying at the View.SaraUnited Kingdom

- 6.4Scored 6.4PleasantRated pleasant· 502 reviewsCharming, relatively old family-run hotel right on the Folkestone seafront. The age of the building does show through in places, but not in a way that seems too shabby or run-down - just gives it a bit of character, in my opinion. Staff is super friendly too.DirkChina
