The reserve was so peaceful"

Top Elham Valley Railway Museum Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Folkestone - Channel Tunnel by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and staff who were super helpful, but our room had massive stains on the carpet and sofa plus room albeit clean was looking a bit tired. Also lack of sockets near beds - we don’t all use older type usb & due to security wouldn’t want too."

The Carlton Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were helpful and provided extra tea bags and milk when requested. Property a bit tired but it was clean."

Burlington Hotel, Best Western Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Staff are extremely friendly and efficient always helpful if you have a problem. We booked a cosy room which is clean and has all you need for a night’s stay. Breakfast is buffet and there are also freshly cooked choices too included with your breakfast package. I had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on sourdough bread - eggs cooked just how I like them! Staff were very attentive making sure you had tea and coffee not long after you sat down and taking any orders. The same can be said for the staff in the bar when we had tea and scones early afternoon and also again late evening with a cocktail. The only downside of this hotel is the parking. There are 12 dedicated spaces in front of the hotel which are filled very early by 11am according to the staff! The rest is paid for parking permits but there is no guarantee you will get a space. Last year when we stayed at the hotel, one road on the side of the hotel was still free of permits but this year this road has also been allocated permit parking. This is obviously not the hotel’s fault but does make it more difficult to find a space and of course there is the additional cost. But despite that we had a great stay."
