Holiday Inn Express Folkestone - Channel Tunnel by IHG
6/10 Okay
"We stayed here for one night before heading through the Channel Tunnel to France, and for that purpose the location really can’t be faulted – it’s a solid 10/10 and incredibly convenient.
That said, there were a few issues worth noting. In our room, the shower holder was broken, meaning you had to hold the shower head the entire time, which wasn’t ideal. Parking is no longer included and is now managed by a third party at £6 per night, which feels like an unnecessary extra. The biggest surprise, though, was the dog fee – now £30, which was actually more than the cost per adult. It does feel like they may be taking advantage of the fact that many guests are travelling with pets to France.

Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
8/10 Good
"Excellent hotel and facilities. Had issue where toilet roll holder came off the wall and the shower would not stay in position due to fault meaning I had to hold the shower head up while showering. Apart from that was a great stay albeit the room was a little small"
"Really enjoyed our stay, place was clean and stuff friendly. Great location can easily get around by foot. Car park is £5 if you stay at hotel. Swimming pool and sauna available for price I believe it was £4 each. "
"Toilet had to pump handle to get it to flush, sink didn't drain quickly so obviously blocked . Should have been picked up by anyone cleaning the room. 1 plug socket and no where near bed. coffee machine at breakfast constantly needed maintainance by staff - saying needed cleaning so didn't enjoy coffee knowing that. hopefully all these issues will be resolved after the upgrade - didnt bother the staff on sunday as had to get to work and upgrade already in progress.
