"I was freezing. The draft in the room was ridiculous. Its because the windows are rotten and there were gaps so the cold air got in and made the whole room so cold. Also no one tells you to get your car park ticket before you park. So now Im worried that I will get a fine as I went into the car park then walked over to register my car."

Churchill Guest House

"We were at the end of a cruise and decided to visit Dover. We picked Churchill House because of it's location very close to Dover Castle and downtown Dover. Alexander was an amazing host. He personally showed us around the property and shared information about the Dover area. We stayed in the spacious Victoria Room, which was modern, very clean and quiet. The kitchen area had everything we needed for a great breakfast to start our days. There are several dining options close within easy walking distance. We would highly recommend Churchill House without any hesitation. We are looking forward to our next stay here!"
