We stayed here for one night ready for a early morning ferry from Dover. The Hotel is on a main street and parking is abit hit and miss but there is plenty about. The host was very welcoming and very friendly and after abit of a hike to the top floor we were very surprised of the size of the... More

I booked into Kentmere as I was attending a family wedding in Folkestone in early July 2011. I booked based on the good reviews it recieved. The owner was very friendly and attentive and cooked a very nice breakfast every morning. The house overall was very nice clean and tidy. My room again was tidy and clean with a very... More

Stayed for a week. First impression of my room was how small it was. Case had to go on my bed to unpack as there was no room to do this on the floor. It had all of the usual things - facilities to make a hot drink, TV and free wi fi. Towels and sheets changed once during my... More

We enjoyed our stay at Kentmere in a comforatable airy and light room with a comfortable bed. The service was good, with every effort made to meet any requests we had, as well as provide information and recommendations for meals and entertainment. The breakfast was good and could be expanded to full English Breakfast, which we did. We will stay... More

Overall, we were happy with our stay. The room was clean, good shower, reasonably quiet, friendly people, very tasty breakfast, and no problem parking round the corner. The only problem was that our double bed was very narrow, only 115 or 120 cm wide (about 4 feet). There was also a single bed in the room, but we booked a... More

We have just returned from a few days at the Kentemere Guest House. I was travelling with my friend and two small children. Upon arrival, the owners were very accomodating, ensuring that we brought the children into the house first before sorting any other aspect of our stay out. They then kindly advised us where the car could be parked... More

I decided a few weeks before I had to take an early Chunnel train that I did not want to drive during the night, so I booked via a website a single room for £25. That was already reasonable. The room is small, but with everything, Coffee making stuff, ensuite, wifi, tv. Clean. Close to the city centre. Quite a... More

I was told breakfast was just a continental breakfast. Whatever happened to the ´Full Cooked English Breakfast“ that was advertised?! Also breakfast was at 8:00AM. On a Sunday! There was no flexibility such as breakfast being served between 8:00am and 9:30am or some such. It was 8:00 am or nothing! It advertises as having private parking. When I said that... More

I rang the guest house directly to book an overnight stay before travelling through the Euro Tunnel. I wanted one room for my wife and daughter and a separate room for my son. I was told that there were 2 rooms available but one was not a single. After some discussion the agreement was that the overall price would be... More
