This rambliing old building has been upgraded to create a good hotel for a short break.The front rooms overlooking the Stour a fine. The Dinner B & B package is OK with a reasonable coice on the short menu all of which we found to be well cooked and presented. The only real problem is the parking, very limited number... More

My husband and I, our two friends and our dog Lilly stayed at The Bell on Bank Holiday Sunday for a one night stay. We had a great stay and it was excellent value for money. As I booked for my husband's birthday, the staff very kindly upgraded our room which was a lovely treat. The food was excellent and... More

Never visited sandwich, but found the town really lovely. The Hotel is central to the whole town. Very little parking at the hotel unless you are lucky and get one of the few spaces out the front (which we did, so that was fab). We stayed in a King room with balcony, on a very wet and rainy Saturday so... More

We stayed at the Bell for a two night break in March. The hotel is ideally located on the quay and is within walking distance of many of the local attractions. Our second floor room (No.33) was nicely furnished with views over the river and the surrounding area. The bathroom was of a good size although some of the fittings... More

We had booked an activity day locally which got cancelled the day before but as we could not get a refund on the hotel booking (understandably less than 24 hours before) we decided to make a weekend of it and stay anyway. I am glad we did - what a fabulous place. Room was lovely, modern in an old building... More

We had a very pleasant stay. The breakfast was very good with attentive staff and a good selection of food, although at £95 per night, it's what you'd expect. The bed was very comfortable. More

We have just returned from a lovely stay at the Bell Inn, we went on a Sunday Dinner B&B offer - £120 for both of us. The hotel was delightfully elegant, old and full of character yet modern in decor / interior. Room was very tastefully decorated and our bathroom was huge. A la carte menu was really good, fish...

I rarely write reviews as opinions vary so much and are actually personal feelings. I must make an exception after reading a negative, damning review from someone who just went for dinner on the same weekend that my wife and I stayed for the weekend. We must have been in a different place or maybe we come from a more... More

The Bell is my favorite spot to overnight while getting my winter golf fixes. You get a good bed, a good shower, and reasonable quiet. I'm not sure While I wouldn't spend a holiday there, it is an excellent choice for overnights convenient to golf, and superior to the lodgings in Deal in the same price category. It's where the...

We had a great stay at this hotel for one night. The service was excellent (nothing was too much trouble!) The dinner was extremely good value, and service good. Breakfast was excellent. The room was slightly small but fine for a couple of nights. I will stay again at this hotel. More
