We were travelling to the Shuttle and stayed before our trip. The staff were very pleasant. The room was very clean and well presented and the bed very comfortable. This is our second visit before travelling and would be happy to stay again and recommend it to others.

Peter
United Kingdom
We stayed in room 237 on the second floor. The room was very hot with no AC. We opened the windows and had noise from pigeons all night that were resting on the window ledge . There had been bird spikes installed but some had fallen off. More spikes needed to be installed on the down pipes and surrounding ledges. On the second night we opened the windows again and around 4am were woken with a pigeon on the inside of the window sill and we had to shoo it out of the room. All in all not a pleasant weekend away with hardly any sleep and quite an expensive 2 days .

General overview of Folkestone was fantastic, local amenities, plenty of places for food and drink. Local convenience via Uber eats. Very clean, and overall looks amazing. Would highly recommend Folkestone to family and friends. However I wouldn’t recommend The Carlton Hotel. That was awful!KirstyUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Folkestone is a really beautiful place with friendly people.
Folkestone is a really beautiful place with friendly people. The sea view can be mistaken for overseas and the grass area is lush. The choice of pebble or sand beach is a bonus and Folkestone Harbour is a lovely area to relax and enjoy the vibes. It's not to far from London and has many lovely hotels a stone throw from the beach. On each occasion I have visited, I have enjoyed immensely. The last occasion I was able to enjoy the Folkestone festival, with live, great performances held at the bandstand and a variety of stalls offering different products. There are a variety of good restaurants to chose from including the hotels. The View Hotel where we stayed provided a tasty flavoursome meal one evening. Folkestone is easy to navigate and a lovely place just to walk and explore.JeflynUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Folkstone is a very friendly place to visit, loads of places to eat and drink. The only downside was the food stall on the harbour closed too early it would have been nice if they stayed open longer.

Thge usual nasty little Englanders prevail in this most Brexit-voting of districts. However there are some nice harbourside pubs which were well-run and friendly (I would particularly recommend The Harbour Inn which despite it's rather busy location is an excellent pub, welcoming and well-run. Folkestone is a town in two halves. I stayed in the harbour area when I would have enjoyed staying nearer the venue I was attending, and would have enjoyed better facilities in the mid town area, I would conclude.

Folkestone has a lot to offer especially because it's close to other places as many coastal it is suffering a bit I would also say if you don't like steps or extremely steep hills even in the town centre then it may not be for you.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10
Lovely central location with something for everyone.
Lovely central location with something for everyone. Lovely walks as a whole family. A good range of shops, restaurants, pubs and bars. Canterbury was 20-30 minute drive away which was lovely as we went on a boat tour and saw the stunning cathedral. We were able to get to mist places on foot and there was a lot to do. Parks, beach, harbor arm, cinema, shops and lots of lovely sights. We had a lovely Greek dinner on the harbor arm, however, it was quite expensive. We had a chicken gyros, a lamb one, a chicken gyros bowl, chips and some hummus with pitta and it was £60.Samantha

- 8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 8,238 reviewsWe have stayed at this Folkestone Holiday Inn Express several times and always receive a warm welcome when checking in. The hotel is extremely well located for the EuroTunnel. The rooms are basic, clean, comfortable and relatively spacious. Breakfast is very good - cereals, breads, yoghurts, fruit, eggs, bacon, sausages etc. and the vending machines deliver hot, fresh coffee, tea, chocolate etc. Thank you to all the staff (in all departments) who work hard to provide a good experience for guests.JulieUnited Kingdom

The owner is super helpful and very knowledgable about the best places to eat and to visit......there are lots of both! Free off street parking in front of the flat is very convenient.AlanUnited Kingdom
- 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 10 reviewsWonderful beachside location, nicely decorated & new facilities, full working kitchen, great views, very spacious flat. Lovely little touches i.e. choice of books, games, intro to area, blankets, cushions. Good amount of cleaning products in kitchen. One of best places we've stayed in Folkestone. To flag there are several flights of stairs and no lift so not one if you're less mobile or elderly who may struggle with getting heavier bags up there.
MoragUnited Kingdom - From £95 per night7.3Scored 7.3GoodRated good· 1,058 reviewsGreat location , family rooms are clean and spacious. Had to call the number on the door prior to check in where a friendly staff member came to meet us and explained about the parking and check in . Family room had all the amenities such as wifi , tea & coffee making facilities, bottled water and complimentary chocolates on the bed was a nice touch . It’s not a 5 star hotel but if you want a clean basic place whilst in the area I would recommend
markUnited Kingdom - From £65 per night7.2Scored 7.2GoodRated good· 673 reviewsAs I have a mobility scooter we were relocated to a ground floor room. This, for obvious reasons, was not the executive room for which I had paid. Also, we did not get the continental breakfast for which I had paid, at £6 per person per night. So, I reckon we are due a partial refund. I have to say, however, that John was superb and a credit to the hotel. He helped me get my scooter in and out of the hotel, as all entrances had steps.RRichardUnited Kingdom
- 7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,747 reviewsThe hotel is one of the better ones in Folkestone - great location on the seafront, nice facilities, clean rooms and decent breakfast. Being able to park for £5 a day outside the hotel is great - if you can get a space. I feel this information should be clearly stated on the website and when you book. I had to send several messages and call the hotel to find out about the parking. The staff at the hotel were friendly.
LydiaUnited Kingdom - From £125 per night9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 555 reviewsAbsolutely perfect stay in Folkestone. Everything was perfectly appointed and thought out. Every time I thought “I wonder if they have ______” it was in the room. Beds and bedding were so comfortable, bathrooms were spotless, fridge had milk, every single thing we needed or wanted was there. Location was excellent for walking to a concert on the coast. Host was so friendly and helpful. Could not have been more perfect!
WendyUnited States - From £95 per night8.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 1,098 reviewsMy room had a bay window, lots of light and plenty of space. The rooms in the hotel were open and inviting too. The owner is very organised and good at explaining the where and how of the hotel and what was nearby. It was a short walk into town and the main shops and supermarkets yet far enough away from it to be quiet and residential Nice food for breakfast - lots f information about ingredients and so on.SeamusUnited Kingdom
- 7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 2,747 reviewsWe had one of the newly refurbished rooms, which was excellent. Breakfast was lovely too. Just a note to the management, although the new shower is super modern, it is perhaps not very practical for the hotel as the shower door doesn't hold the water within the low profile tray and may cause some trouble.MariyaUnited Kingdom
