The unit was cozy and clean, and we were able to park right in front. We were leaving too early in the morning to have breakfast at the pub, so the staff left us a generous portion of snacks for the road. Taking the bus into Canterbury was highly convenient.

Dover is famous for the white cliffs which would have been a striking sight to the Romans as they advanced on England. They decided to construct a port at this strategic spot and it has held an important role ever since. Ferries to Calais and Dunkirk cross the English Channel several times daily and some brave souls even manage to swim across.
A Roman lighthouse still stands atop a hill overlooking the port, but is easily missed as it was incorporated into Saxon St Mary de Castro Church as the bellower. It is found within the grounds of 13th-century Dover Castle, one of England’s largest castles, whose multi-level ramparts sit above tunnels where the World War II Dunkirk evacuation was planned.
Another Roman monument is the Painted House whose remains include some of the best-preserved Roman murals north of Italy. Even older is the Bronze Age boat displayed in Dover Museum.
The Dover Transport Museum showcases vintage vehicles, and the Blériot Memorial marks the spot where the first airplane to fly across the Channel first touched English soil. A path runs along the top of the nearby cliffs, while at their feet is a shingle beach.
The Dover accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury hotels with pools, cheap inns and B&Bs near the train station.

Dover is a must see and can be placed on your bucket list.
Dover is a must see and can be placed on your bucket list. The walk along the cliffs is great and the Dover castle is well maintained and very interesting. Parking in Dover is as per all UK towns a problem and you need to plan accordingly or you can use the local bus services.

We spent a day and a half in Dover and came specifically to see the historical Fan Bay Shafts (National Trust) and Dover Castle (English Heritage).
We found Fan Bay Shafts interesting and very 'genuine' history. Note that it is 45 minutes underground in damp, but not cold, tunnels, wearing a hard hat and head torch.
Dover Castle warrants a whole day or more! Lots to see.
We had time to see Deal Castle too. Good as a contrast, as it is a Tudor fortification. They have tried hard with their pretty good first floor exhibition, but the basement is an underused and under-explained resource which could be much more imaginatively tackled.

Dover needs significant regeneration: the town is tired and not appealing. I have known Dover since 1965 and to be honest it is probably now at its worst, but I can see some small signs of improvement: however everything being demolished is becoming a car park!! Dover needs to look like Folkestone or Deal: more independent and unique shops to attract people. Not the standard chains stores and "cheap shops", which of course have their place but different shops attract curiosity.
The castle remains the main attraction, as does western heights and Dover Patrol memorial. Kirsney Abbey and Russell Gardens provide a tranquil side. the ride through Alkham Valley, always puts a smile on my face.

Dover is a very busy port town but also a town full of interesting history. We loved walking out along the pier, watching the ferries come in & go out, we enjoyed visiting Dover Castle very much, it is well worth putting a day aside to visit the castle and we found the town centre to contain everything we needed for our visit; minimart, chemist, shoe shop, pubs, restaurants & coffee shops. It’s small enough to walk everywhere & plenty to do. There’s a great walk along the famous white cliffs which we ran out of time to do but we’d like to come back one day & see more of this great town.
In all, Dover is a bit rough around the edges but a very interesting town to visit, especially if you like boats, the seaside & history.

Plenty to do in Dover and with travel issues (traffic and train strikes) well worth reducing the stress and planning a day in Dover. Premier Inn offered (online reservation) for Bag stashers. Local museum has amazing Bronze age boat! Dover castle has so many different historic periods covered - Roman lighthouse, Plantagenet castle and World war II hospital / headquarters - allow plenty of time.

Dover is really undergoing a regeneration process, the beach are is very popular and the marina is just lovely. The town itself is very run down indeed and we avoided it this time. We did spend a lot of time walking on the beach and enjoying the lovely atmosphere.
Bev and Michael were very welcoming hosts! We really appreciated all of the food recommendations and top tips on the local attractions. The breakfast was absultely amazing and they accommodated so kindly for our varying dietary needs. The location was great. Walkable distance from town center, train stations, Dover castle, and White Cliffs of Dover for my partner and eye! The room was so cute and well put together! If we ever find ourselves in Dover again, I would love to stay with Bev adn Michael!
We stayed here for one night, and had a really lovely room, and a very comfortable stay.
The owner welcomed us warmly and gave us useful tips for reaching the cliffs and for visiting the castle of Dover. Everything spotlessly clean, nice bathroom, bed and pillows were so comfortable.
Great location, friendly staff and well maintained hotel, perfect accommodation for a very good price. We'll definitely stay again when we are in the area!
Absolutely lovely room! Great location across from Dover Priory station and a good pub with live music on Saturday night. It's all self check-in which had me a bit nervous, but was so easy and smooth. Felt very secure and it was very quiet. Bed was comfy, great space for a single room. Had kettle in room with teas and biscuit. Also had accessible and super useful £1 luggage locker for before or after check-in/out!
Very friendly hostess. Huge and delicious breakfast. I had booked a small room, but was upgraded to a huge room. Located about midway between the train station (about a 15 min. walk) and the castle (less than 15 min. walk). Just a few minutes’ walk to the shore, with a Marks & Spencer Foodhall and lots of restaurants right nearby. A very comfortable and enjoyable stay; I would like to go back again.
It's one of the best hotels I've been to so far. Very modern room and bathroom. Very clean. Good breakfast, lovely health centre for hotel guests ( sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, gym ) and spa. I had a full body massage. It was sooooo good and relaxing. The hotel is close to the shopping centre, Dover Castle, restaurants and to ferries ⛴️ it was a wonderful stay
Great location (just across from Dover Priory) and walking distance to the cruise port and various food places. Comfy and beautifully decorated. No AC but fans were provided. USB charging in outlets. Nice en suite bathroom and shower. Very clean. Staff was extremely helpful and nice. Not a bargain but good quality for price. WiFi was available and reliable.
The guest house is located close to the Dover castle, seaside and the city centre. Our room was quite spacious, with a beamed ceiling, two beautiful windows with outside flower boxes and was furnished in the "old" style. The bed was excellent. We were warmly welcomed by the concierge John, who gave us a great introduction to the city's history.
It was a lovely hotel close to the centre of Dover with comfy beds and quiet rooms as well as a fantastic full English breakfast in the morning. The staff were extremely pleasant and very accommodating. I would highly recommend to anyway looking to visit Dover or who is waiting on the ferry.
We had a late ferry crossing and just wanted to get to out hotel quickly and easily that first night. The Holiday inn is about a 7 minute drive from Dover port, right off the main road, with plentiful parking. Our room was large and very clean. The beds were very comfortable.
Classic English "home"! Very nice room, our room had its own bathroom, no AC, but while we were here, the windows did just fine 😀. Within walking distance of the train station and town. Got taxis from town to go to Dover Castle. The hostess was nice and very helpful.
We have stayed at the old oak now about four times.
My Husband, our dog and myself stay overnight when we are going to France.
Its very convienient to get to the port of Dover its a really good place to stay and the breakfasts are very good.
The property is in great location for Dover ferry port and is a much better price than any other hotel/hostel in the area. As we were only staying for about 12 hours we weren’t prepared to pay the ridiculous costs of some of the other places.
The location is perfect, close to the train and bus station, close to good restaurants and around 5 minutes from Dover Castle. The owner is very nice and were helpful to our demands. We bought the breakfast and it was also delicious.
good location on the edge of dover-handy overnight pad before the ferry. car-park at the side of the hotel with a reasonable area for an afternoon drink. inside, a pleasant old- fashioned lounge/bar with decent real ale.
Wonderful hosts in a lovely home, comfortable room with all the amenities, excellent breakfast, great location. Closest to Dover Castle and easy walk from train station or ferry.
