Great hotel all round - rooms are spacious and have the most comfortable beds in the world! The location is great, only a stone’s throw from the beach and a short drive to Rye. Also took us under 2 hours to drive from London so perfect for a weekend break. The food was fantastic – I recommend the fish which... more

Food was wonderful, service was perfect, relaxed yet everything served on time giving us plenty of time to chat and chill -out in a modern stylish surround that had lots of "beach" character. A perfect retreat. On our list of favourite places, we'll be back. Thank-you to everyone. more

My partner and i booked The Place on the Beach as a last minute getaway last weekend. Needing a couple of days away from the craziness of London, but not wanting to spend a fortune, we opted for the POTB. We arrived on Saturday afternoon, to be greeted by friendly reception staff who checked us in and showed us to... more

So many friends had told us that they had heard good reviews of The Place that we couldn't wait to go - what a disappointment. We arrived and walked into the guest corridor to be greeted by a sign saying 'no food or drink in the bedrooms'. I think it is a shame when the first welcome into the accommodation... more

Thank you for taking the time to give some feedback on your recent stay with us and I am sorry things were not as good as they could have been. The sign you were referring to was of course inherited from previous owners and has haunted me ever since. The only reason it has remained so long is that we...

Fantastic food and staff were very friendly and attentive. Lovely restaurant with sofa area for lounging. We had a double room - with a double bed - so cosy but clean and comfortable. Impovements are being made and general re-decoration is under-way which will only add to this return-to venue. more

We had always wanted to stay at The Place at the beach, and were not disappointed. We thought the room and dining deal was great value. The food and service were excellent. All the staff were incredibly friendly. The room was very comfortable. Lovely and cosy on a blowy November night. Amazing location right by the sand dunes. Will definitely... more

To be fair, I usually stay at B&B's or Inn, which I love. Due to circumstances, we opted for this small hotel instead, to broaden the horizon etc. It has a sort of Aussie feeling, located in the dunes, no sea view. If you drive up from Romney/Dungeness/Hythe, you pass one of the most depressing landscapes in the UK; any... more

Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay with us. I am really pleased to hear my staff were friendly as we have been hard at work getting a team on board who are able to make our guests feel relaxed and at home. I agree with you the TV’s in the room are small, we inherited them from...

My wife and I spent a very disappointing 6-8 November weekend at The Place at the Beach. We booked our weekend stay after viewing the hotel’s web site. As it turned out, the gap between the web site’s pretensions and our experience was huge. According to the web site, the Place at the Beach is “a hotel alongside the beach”,... more

Thank you for taking the time to write such a long response to your recent stay with us. I think an honest straight up reply to your review best benefits both the hotel and the people reading it! I have been the manager here since November 08 so am proud to have that award as indeed are the staff some...

Stayed for 3 nights while working nearby. A small and friendly place with an excellent restaurant that has a good menu. The room I stayed in was comfortable and quiet. The staff were attentive and pleasant. more

Relaxed atmosphere - loved sitting on the super comfy sofas reading papers while looking out towards the dunes. Room quite small but decorated tastefully and very clean. Very attentive and helpful front of house staff. Easy parking. Eat in the evening in the restaurant - highly recommended. more
