Clean hotel and great location! Across the street are shops and places to eat. You can walk to the castle and the cliffs. The breakfast was good. They have a phone at the front desk to catch a cab.
Room was fine, bed was comfortable enough. Lift was broken and didn’t work during our stay.

A bit dated Premier Inn not far from the ferry port of Dover. We had a relatively spacious room with a sea view. Bed was quite comfy, room was warm though as its not possible to open the windows properly. 115€ wasnt cheap though for what was offered.
On positive side room clean, lifts good, bed comfortable. On down side no aircon and room was 28 degrees. Fans just pushed the hot air around. Thick duvets on bed in middle of summer with no top sheet.
Close to very nice historical areas. If you like to bathe using a wash cloth bring your own. These properties do not provide wash cloths. That was the only bad thing.
Overall, great location. The staff was super helpful!
The rooms were neat and tidy!
Air conditioning I couldn't figure out if it was there or not!
But overall a great place to stay by the sea!
The kitchen was closed when we arrived. Later service may be appreciated. Our room also had a very squeaky floor so I pity the people below us. View was beautiful and shower was hot, bed was clean and fresh. Staff were not always at their post at the front desk but we never had to wait long.

The winning points for this hotel are helpful staff and a pleasant location by the water. The room was extremely hot and stuffy, no air conditioning and a window that is blocked from opening fully. It was hot and stuffy at all hours of the day and night while it was a tolerable 26 degrees outside.
Breakfast was ok though nothing classy. Good value of 10.99 for a full breakfast per adult and free for a kid with a paying adult.
Dinner was expensive but poor quality. Very busy and noisy and long waiting times for everything - dinner, desert, and check.
On the positive side, 20 minutes to Dover Castle and White Cliffs, 3 minutes to the bus stop with the bus that takes you to the train station, and about 8-10 minutes to grocery stores and restaurants. For those who like running, excellent running opportunities along the harbour and an outdoor gym in the nearby green space.

We arrived at 2:25pm, and on one of the hottest recorded days. We were greeted with "check-in isn't until 3pm, but you can go have a drink at the bar. Or you can do early check-in for 15 pounds". A "welcome to the Premier Inn", would have been nice. However we soon found out they did us a favor, because there was no air conditioning, and the window could only be opened about 6 inches. A fan was provided, but had little effect because the window could be only opened slightly, and only outwardly, rather than up or down. The air was so stiffeling, that at around 2am, I went outside and sat on a bench.
Walk right out to the welcoming waterfront path. Quiet area. Close to grocery stores and restaurants.

Had a comfortable bed and good sleep in a quiet room, delicious & non-greasy breakfast, smiling, friendly and helpful customer service. Closest distance to walk to both the White Cliffs of Dover and Dover Castle. All at a good price too. Thank you!
NO AIR! Do not stay here! The room was ROASTING. I am talking 30.5 degrees C, 87 degrees F! It was unbearable! The window only opened out three inches --it was cool outside, no way to get any fresh air in. One tiny fan was aimed at the bed. There was no ice machine to get some ice to cool down. This is inexcusable--we were nauseous from the heat. This was DANGEROUS! We were stuck to the sheets with sweat. In 2026, to have NO AIR, NO VENTILATION, NO ICE is inexcusable and hazardous. Someone is going to have a health incident and sue. DISGUSTING!
Great place to stay , very reasonable rates, lovely staff and your right on the water front,, great location especially for people cruising out of Dover. I would stay there again.
