The rooms were very small, bathroom had been renovated but when you sat on toilet you hit the toilet roll holder. Breakfast was a basic continental, if you didn’t time it right you had to queue for a table. Did not have any gluten free, or lactose free options was told you had to order at time of booking, although that was not mentioned when booking. It was reasonable cheap for this area and that’s all you got.

The Dover is no frill hotel. The property is clean and as advertised. The only issue I had was my last day I was not able to take a shower because the water would never turn on and the little bit that did turn on the faucet was just enough to wash my face and brush my teeth.

Good simple breakfast with fantastic coffee, conveniently located 👍, big local Sainsbury’s supermarket nearby, nice hotel staffs; however sadly they don’t provide bar soap every day so need to ask and don’t really think they change bedsheets everyday only tidy up that’s all, very narrow dangerous stairs for luggage carrying, very thin walls & continuous floor creaking late into night which is not suitable for light sleepers, not much tv channels esp. BPL matches, overall good room size for average Asians size, I definitely will return again in future 👍

Great location for all we wanted to do. Bathroom is a bit small, and the sink is in the sleeping area. A little disappointed in the breakfast offerings. Staff was polite and helpful.

It was a very small room but we knew that going in however it was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a continental type including toast, cereal, yogurt, coffees, tea and juices which was fine with us. We did find the room warm but were able to cool it off using the fan and opening the window in the evening as it was September and so not really hot during evening. The decor is definitely dated including the carpets. You do hear noise from other rooms but not an ongoing issue for us. The location was excellent. We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see and it is close to Victoria station for all transportation.
