The rooms were above a pub. There is no elevator and the stairs were steep. Once upstairs and in the room it was comfortable. The pub below served food for a cost. The food was very good. Breakfast was amazing.

We loved Royal Oak and the thoughtfully designed spaces. Our room was extremely clean and also had a very nice bathroom accommodation. We thoroughly enjoyed walking around the area, Kearsney Gardens and quick train to Dover area. The pub was fun and great food. We felt like locals by partaking in the Easter trivia night!! We knew this ahead of time and had no issues, but for your planning purposes-- the rooms are on the second floor above the pub area. Breakfast was very generous servings and great food. Staff assisted us with travel advice. We hope to visit again in the future.

nice stop friendly staff

Lovely little stop, shame no food was being served of an evening meant we had to drive out and find a decent pub which wasn't that easy. Room was lovely and clean mattress a little lumpy but good pillows. I did ask for a printed invoice as Hotels.com dont provide this with VAT which is a huge problem for business users. Places need to understand this and prepare VAT receipts also if you take one payment the receipt needs to be one not two.

Great Service and Delicious Food

We were greeted with a big smile and enjoyed friendly service throughout our stay. Our room was clean, warm and very comfortable. Both our dinner and breakfast at Royal Oak were delicious and served with a smile :) I warmly welcome Royal Oak for any length of stay and will definitely visit again.

Enjoyable!

Had a very enjoyable stay — the room was comfortable, and I slept well. The pub downstairs has a great vibe and friendly staff. I also really appreciated the helpfulness when I had some trouble getting into my room. Would definitely stay again!
