Being a regular male business traveler and having read some of the comments, I was unsure whether to book or not but the location and price swayed me. The location is a big plus, being right on the sea front so you get a fantastic view from your room, if you choose a sea view room which I highly recommend.... More

We stayed for one night at the beginning of May in a sea view zip link room (two singles zipped together making one big kingsize - the zip part may bother some people but it wasn't an issue for us). The room had a lovely balcony looking out over Tankerton slopes. Nicely decorated, my only down point was that the... More

We stayed here very soon after the refurbishment and had a great time. We found the staff on the whole very polite and efficient ( I would say that, seeing me struggle with a case the mention of a lift -hidden from obvious view-would have been helpful though). Our room was beautiful with a lovely balcony and sea views. I... More

The Marine Hotel overlooks Tankerton slopes on the edge of Whitstable. It's a beautiful old seaside hotel from the heydays of British holidays by the sea. Shepherd Neame have recently renovated it and its beautiful. Had lunch in the informal bar area on Sunday managed without booking to secure a table with a sea views. It's all splendid inside very...

We have stayed here on a number of occasions, albeit usually when other preferences were not to be had in Whitstable; We have always found it to be good value, great for early morning walks on the beach with the dogs- who are also happily accepted, child friendly, a lively and welcoming bar, a more than filling breakfast, friendly staff...

We booked a one night stay (a Friday night in May) based purely on the good reviews on Trip Advisor (and having just read them again, they are all pretty spot on!). We liked the sound of a recently refurbished hotel with sea views and especially liked the price – a superior double room with balcony and sea view with... More

Very pleasant reasonably-priced hotel with comfortable rooms which has been recently refurbished with a maritime-inspired decor. Some of the staff are a bit inexperienced, which is inevitable with a new hotel, but all were friendly and helpful. Best of all, it has its own free parking. The hotel is beautifully located on the Tankerton Slopes, within walking distance of Whitstable... More

This used to be a slightly down-at-heel, out of the way hotel with tired rooms and a bar full of locals who used it as a boozer. It's now undertgone quite the tasteful revamp and the money has been well spent. There's now a bright, airy and nautically themed bar in which you now won't feel uncomfortable wearing smart clothes.... More
