Delicious fresh fish dishes: in fact the best cook I ever tasted in my small stays in UK... Bed supplies perfect, fluffy and warm.

Towels were lacking, and as the office was closed when we realized, we needed to do without. The street was noisy, and this is the only bad point of our stay: we were in an adorable room on the street, and there was many cars, and as I have a very light sleeping, I eared them a lot in despite of the thick window.

The smell of old greasy food wafted throughout the guest house, it could not be avoided, our clothes smelt of it too. Perhaps the extractor fan needed to be cleaned out

Overall: Do not stay there, rather pay a bit more and get a clean and nice smelling hotel  (108160235)

Checked in 2 hours later than the stated check in time and the room was not ready. The bottom sheet was drying! How many sheets do they have? Please God more than one per bed!!!! No towels in the room and the restaurant was shut due to personal reasons, I assume that these were due to the fact they could not be bothered.

Overall: Not great. Room was ok but thats as good as it gets. Somewhere to sleep but not much else. Would not plan a holiday here! Margate is awful, if you want to go to Kent sea side go to Broadstairs it is beautiful.  (108276198)

THE BOY IN CHARGE WAS RUDE AND UNHELPFUL, WE WERE TOLD BREAKFAST WAS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE AND WHEN WE GOT THERE THEY TRIED TO CHARGE US AN EXTRA £10.00 FOR BREAKFAST, TO PAY FOR THE ROOM BY CARD WAS GOING TO BE AN EXTRA £4.50 WE WERE NOT TOLD ABOUT WHEN WE BOOKED, THE ADVERTISED GRILL BAR WAS CLOSED, THE GUESTHOUSE WAS NOT IN A NICE AREA.

Overall: NOT A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AND WOULD NEVER GO BACK TO THIS, GUESTHOUSE AGAIN.  (108456333)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
