Decent overnight stay before cruise. Hotel is trying hard to bring it back to its once legacy status. A few mishaps but overall I would recommend especially for a night or two. Dover as a town is dying on the vine. Many locals said it has changed and being taken down very by others. Go see the Castle. Not much else to do unless you like shopping at secondhand stores.

The only compliant I had was I payed for a late checkout & and housekeeping, kept on knocking on the door for me to leave the room after I paid for an extra 2 hour check out. The front staff needs to communicate better with housekeeping for future guests who want to extend the extra 2 hours of late check out.

Nice location. Outdated lifts. Lift very crowded during embarkation days. General rooms have been renovated and great size. Meal options very good. Just during stay it had rained and many rooms got flooded incluiding cloths or personal things. Big shout to Staff that has been friendly and accomodate as possible.

The rooms were nice and spacious and clean. Beds comfortable. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Spa area was very small, jacuzzi very busy and as it was small we had to wait around for a while before we could find space to get in. Location is perfect, close to public transport, town centee with lots of restaurants. Beach is across the road. Town centre is dilapidated and feels unsafe. We encountered alot of drunk people during midday and one night during a stroll on the beach at 9pm, we were chased off by a drunk man swearing and shouting towards us! Felt very intimidated and unsafe.

Our room flooded and our luggage and clothes got wet and no power so very hard getting packed and about 21:00 we got another room, so without any help we had pack up and move. As of right now can’t even get a breakfast or any compensation for the inconvenience. Talking to one of the staff said that every time it rains only one or two rooms flooded but this time it was a lot worse, you would think if they new about this they would’ve fixed the roof!! Just a great start to our holiday!!!
