Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautifully refurbished hotel, now called VOCO. Staff so helpful and friendly. Hotel ideally placed for an easy walk along the cliff promenade or a short walk down to the harbour. Excellent restaurant in the hotel for evening meal and breakfast, others available within 10 minute walk. A good base to explore Dover and the other Cinque Ports. Would definitely stay again.

I stayed in a quiet room on the 3rd floor facing the courtyard so it was super quiet which I appreciated. Friendly staff, shout out to Maj who ran the dining area - always welcoming and provided excellent service.
