I made the right choice to pick this hotel. Easy walk fromVictoria station, Buckingham Palace and etc.. The front desk man Sajjad worked with our needs. The breakfast was good and staff were attentive to dining guests always filling up table needs. Location wise, easy transportation, safety and modesty is what you need. I recommend the Dover.

Great location but not one we’d book again
The reception staff were very friendly, but the hotel is extremely basic for the cost. Our room smelt very peculiar and when we went to breakfast in the morning, no one came to meet us so we just left. I am sure if we had found the staff they would have served us with a smile, but it didn’t feel that comfortable. Great if you want a cheap stay in a great location, but not one we would stay at again.

This was the perfect accommodation for our family of five. The staff was very friendly and the room was clean. The location was great being only 5 minute walk from Victoria Station with many local places to eat. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend. Thank you!

The heating system didn’t work - either scalding hot or freezing. The sheets were left crumbled when the beds were made. The breakfast was very basic. Friendly staff, good location

The bedsheets, carpets and curtains were not clean. Also, the toilet is shared with other guests. The room had a shower and sink inside, which was good, but not much privacy if you travel with more than one person. The staff were polite though and check in was simple.

Ok for 1 night, close to Victoria
We were top floor of a walk-up in an old building, plenty of wear and tear but the room was clean. Very small room. Great location. It would suit someone with light luggage and a no-frills expectation.

We read the reviews before so we were aware the stairs were steep and were fine with it. We were in room 16 so on the highest floor and the steps were not bad at all, we had backpacks so it was easy. We were able to check in early for our two night stay and room was cleaned in the morning and had fresh towels for the second night. TV was small but your not in your room much so its not a big deal. Fan was a great touch for air circulation. Room was small but expected and was sufficient for our needs. LOVED the location near Victoria station, one train directly to Gatwick airport from here. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, highly recommend!

Expensive experience
Very small room hardly space to walk around. Minute sink - unacceptable. Third floor room no lift not suitable for me or others post hip surgery. Very basic breakfast and pretty unfriendly staff. Would NEVER STAY again and would not recommend for the price.

Lovely clean room with everything you need although no lift and lots of stairs to climb to get to it and very small tv. Lovely little breakfast room with cereal, toast, yogurts, juice, tea and coffee. In a good position to access lots of places to visit on foot and the tube is nearby. would defiantly stay here again.
