Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection By Hilton from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Dover Marina Hotel & Spa often impresses guests with its spacious rooms, some boasting lovely sea views from their balconies. Many appreciate the hotel's prime location, right across from the beach and convenient for ferry access and the Royal Cinque Yacht Club. The half-board option is considered excellent value by some, offering both breakfast and dinner. While generally appreciated, a few guests have noted that the air conditioning system in some rooms can be difficult to adjust to a comfortable temperature.

The buffet offered many options. The 24-hour bar was handy. It helped after a late arrival FROM london. The check-in process was easy.

The room was small. The furniture made it hard to move around the bathroom. i stubbed my toe. The interior seemed dated. I saw scratch marks on the bedroom wall.

The room was clean. a great selection of teas were available. The views from the balcony were amazing and overlooked the sea, a great way to start my day. The location was really convenient, a short distance from the ferry terminal.

The lift was quite small, and I sometimes opted for the stairs to avoid waiting.

The receptionist was fantastic. They were very kind, friendly, and funny at check-in. the room was gorgeous and even better than expected, it had beautiful interior and a comfy bed. a little balcony with a table and chairs provided a sea view.

steps at the hotel's front and back made entry difficult with luggage and mobility issues. i requested a suite with a walk-in shower but received a room with a shower over the bath. the air vent cover in the bathroom fell out, it could have caused injury.
