I'd love to return and see more of Folkestone...but it was storming and we had to leave very early to catch the Euro Tunnel. Drive to Chunnel was very well marked and only c. 15min.

    Folkestone is a very nice town. There are plenty of shops and restaurants around — everything you need is nearby.” We had delicious fish and chips at The Ship Inn pub. It’s a cozy and welcoming spot right by the beach.”

    We visited Capel le Ferne the Battle of Britain Memorial on the 104 bus route. We explored the harbour and walked right to the end where the small lighthouse bar is (not open as weather was a bit stormy). We visited St. Peter's Church where husband's parents were married. Went around the town exploring shops. We walked up the zig zag path on the L:eas and spent the day at the Annual Train Fair in the theatre overlooking the sea. Looking forward to returning when the Road of Remembrance is re-opened (disappointed it is still closed) and the cliff tram - hurry up and get it started again! Please don't build flats on the sea front - keep Folkestone sea front beautiful as it always has been. Congratulations on the restoration of the old platform on the harbour - it looks great and the small railway carriages serving food in summer. Looking forward to coming back for all the improvemnets!

    Folkestone has retained much of its old world charm.

    Folkestone has retained much of its old world charm. It is a very old town with a lot of interesting history, from smuggling to being a main port for departure and arrival from France for many years. It is surrounded by gently rolling hills and is only about a 45 minute drive to Canterbury. Folkestone's main shopping street has many small shops as well as a Sainsbury, Asda and Lidl store all close by. The old high street is very picturesque with a steep slope and a cobbled road. Folkestone harbour is a good place to visit and there is both a sandy beach and shingle beaches.

    We booked an overnight stay as we have stayed at the hotel before several times and found that it’s a good central location for the harbour etc. the buffet was disappointing. It was much better the previous time we stayed. The food was not enjoyable. We enjoyed the evening entertainment, so we will return and skip the buffet dinner.

    Folkestone is just up and coming enough that it is still funky, but also general feels safe. The arts quarter and harbour are particularly worth a visit with excellent art galleries, great bakeries and interesting options for street food or fairly priced restaurant food. Mermaid beach and The Leas are especially beautiful, but there are a lot of steep slopes and steps, so you need to be reasonably fit.

    The location of this huge and dated behemoth couldn't be beaten. Our room (8th floor) had a view to die for. Looking out across the Straits of Dover, with the ferries constantly on the horizon to remind those in Folkestone of what they used to have (the remains of the Harbour station which once saw dozens of ferries every day stands as a silent testimony in front of the hotel. The food and service was very limited but just about acceptable, which was what we had expected.

    The room was amazing, the bed very comfortable, amazing view of the sea from the balcony, warm despite the cold, wet and windy weather outside. The hotel was only 10 minutes walk from Folkestone Central Station and yet overlooking the sea and only 5 minutes walk to the pedestrianised city centre . There was a gorgeous park in front. The staff were incredibly lovely and helpful.
