Top Whitstable Beach Hotel Reviews

Duke of Cumberland

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally positioned about a twenty minute walk from the railway station near to the sea other pub’s restaurants and shops . Friendly and helpful staff . Room beautifully decorated clean and welcoming. Gift of a bottled beer a nice touch. Comfy bed , super shower. The building is on a junction so there is some road noise but not enough to truly disturb we both had good nights sleep"

Starboard Light, Whitstable

8/10 Good

"Lovely house in a very convenient location. House fully equipped with everything we needed during our stay Could do with some new pillows? Many thanks for a great stay with Keepers Cottages"

Sea Breeze, Whitstable

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Breeze. The property was clean, modern and comfortable with the added benefit of being in an ideal location. Shops, cafes and pubs were within easy reach, whilst the sea front and town centre were not too far away. For those wishing to venture further afield, there were bus stops nearby and the railway station was within a ten to fifteen minutes walk. The house was well equipped, although ideally we would have liked the washing machine in the utilty room to have been accompanied by a tumble dryer. We also struggled a little with the operation of the TV and Sky box - perhaps the Welcome Guide could be updated to provide suitable instructions for those unfamiliar with this equipment."

Sea View Cottage, Whitstable

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice cottage, cosy, very well equipped, comfortable, well located!!!! We loved it to stay there."

Charming cottage in the heart of Whitstable - Peace Cottage

8/10 Good

"Whilst the cottage was very charming and pretty, in a great location. It is in need of some attention and updating. The garden felt particularly like no one had cared for it in some time. I also found the number of steps challenging from the street, in addition to the staircase and fragile rope. I feel this should be emphasised more as it would not suit everyone."

Fabulous holiday home, close to Whitstable beach and the local attractions

8/10 Good

"Good location Good kitchen and dining areas Carpets in poor condition Smaller accommodation than expected"

Two minutes from beach. Cosy pet-friendly cottage in cool location with garden.

8/10 Good

"Really excellent location and great communication from the host. A nice spot to stay just a couple of minutes from the beach and The Old Neptune"

The Salt Yard Villa 4 - UK52109

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property right near beach, harbour and shops. Not suitable for those with mobility problems though as the living, sleeping and kitchen is upstairs, bathroom and utility downstairs. Lovely little courtyard garden and parking."
