A lovely traditional Bed&Breakfast, only a 15 minutes drive from the ferry terminal. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. We were due to arrive just after the kitchen closes and they offered to prepare and keep some salad and sandwiches in the fridge for the time of our arrival, we really appreciated it! The room was gorgeous, the breakfast was perfect.

I was in Deal for a wedding and have been welcomed from a very charming and warmhearted gentleman. When I told him I forgot my bow tie he said he will sort it out immediately and gave me one of his own. Even when I could not get a taxi to the venue he asked his friend to drop me off. I have the best memories to this trip thanks to this kind man. Thank you very much!

Our room was very spacious, clean and beautiful decorated. The breakfast was excellent, freshly made by a young man with great manners. You could choose from a menu, with fresh coffee or tea.

I loved my stay in Passenger's House in Whitstable. It's very close to the sea and some local shops so you can get some food or get your beauty treatment close-by. The property itself is really amazing and has everything you may need or might have forgotten. It's very clean and smells so nice when you come in. There's some great little touches such as the fairy lights and the hot water bottle you can make yourself to be warm and cosy. The host is friendly and so helpful. I really didn't want to go home! Will defend recommend and come back one day!
