Gem of a hotel in Margate

This is a beautiful, gem of a hotel in Margate. There is a relaxed atmosphere as soon as you step in. We had a room looking onto the sea with a balcony. The room was very big and spacious with lots of amenities. The decor is stylish with additional touches like a record player and vintage phone and radio. The pantry with free snacks on the second floor is a lovely addition too. The restaurant which is used for breakfast is stylish with a good view of the sea. While we didn’t have the best weather for a seaside visit (!) the hotel made up for it making it a lovely night away. I would definitely recommend this hotel The staff were all pleasant and happy to help.

Fantastic stay by the sea

We had a wonderful stay. The room was spotless and we had a fabulous view of the sea. Very clean and comfortable. We had our small dog with us and a bed and bowls were provided. Would absolutely come back again.

Beautiful rooms with great amenities, including a pantry with sweets and cakes! Amazing breakfast in the Pearly Cow restaurant downstairs. Only downside was we were too early in the season to enjoy the rooftop (not the hotel’s fault) but plenty of bars, microbreweries and cafes nearby to choose from instead.
