Best Western Plus Burlington Hotel, hotel in Folkestone

Set in leafy gardens, overlooking the Leas Promenade and English Channel, the Burlington Hotel is just a 10-minute walk from Folkestone's town center, the beach, and a 15-minute walk from Folkestone...

We stayed in room 237 on the second floor. The room was very hot with no AC. We opened the windows and had noise from pigeons all night that were resting on the window ledge . There had been bird spikes installed but some had fallen off. More spikes needed to be installed on the down pipes and surrounding ledges. On the second night we opened the windows again and around 4am were woken with a pigeon on the inside of the window sill and we had to shoo it out of the room. All in all not a pleasant weekend away with hardly any sleep and quite an expensive 2 days .

    General overview of Folkestone was fantastic, local amenities, plenty of places for food and drink. Local convenience via Uber eats. Very clean, and overall looks amazing. Would highly recommend Folkestone to family and friends. However I wouldn’t recommend The Carlton Hotel. That was awful!

    Folkestone is a really beautiful place with friendly people.

    Folkestone is a really beautiful place with friendly people. The sea view can be mistaken for overseas and the grass area is lush. The choice of pebble or sand beach is a bonus and Folkestone Harbour is a lovely area to relax and enjoy the vibes. It's not to far from London and has many lovely hotels a stone throw from the beach. On each occasion I have visited, I have enjoyed immensely. The last occasion I was able to enjoy the Folkestone festival, with live, great performances held at the bandstand and a variety of stalls offering different products. There are a variety of good restaurants to chose from including the hotels. The View Hotel where we stayed provided a tasty flavoursome meal one evening. Folkestone is easy to navigate and a lovely place just to walk and explore.

    Folkstone is a very friendly place to visit, loads of places to eat and drink. The only downside was the food stall on the harbour closed too early it would have been nice if they stayed open longer.

    Thge usual nasty little Englanders prevail in this most Brexit-voting of districts. However there are some nice harbourside pubs which were well-run and friendly (I would particularly recommend The Harbour Inn which despite it's rather busy location is an excellent pub, welcoming and well-run. Folkestone is a town in two halves. I stayed in the harbour area when I would have enjoyed staying nearer the venue I was attending, and would have enjoyed better facilities in the mid town area, I would conclude.

    Folkestone has a lot to offer especially because it's close to other places as many coastal it is suffering a bit I would also say if you don't like steps or extremely steep hills even in the town centre then it may not be for you.

    Lovely central location with something for everyone.

    Lovely central location with something for everyone. Lovely walks as a whole family. A good range of shops, restaurants, pubs and bars. Canterbury was 20-30 minute drive away which was lovely as we went on a boat tour and saw the stunning cathedral. We were able to get to mist places on foot and there was a lot to do. Parks, beach, harbor arm, cinema, shops and lots of lovely sights. We had a lovely Greek dinner on the harbor arm, however, it was quite expensive. We had a chicken gyros, a lamb one, a chicken gyros bowl, chips and some hummus with pitta and it was £60.

    Wonderful beachside location, nicely decorated & new facilities, full working kitchen, great views, very spacious flat. Lovely little touches i.e. choice of books, games, intro to area, blankets, cushions. Good amount of cleaning products in kitchen. One of best places we've stayed in Folkestone. To flag there are several flights of stairs and no lift so not one if you're less mobile or elderly who may struggle with getting heavier bags up there.

    As I have a mobility scooter we were relocated to a ground floor room. This, for obvious reasons, was not the executive room for which I had paid. Also, we did not get the continental breakfast for which I had paid, at £6 per person per night. So, I reckon we are due a partial refund. I have to say, however, that John was superb and a credit to the hotel. He helped me get my scooter in and out of the hotel, as all entrances had steps.

    Absolutely perfect stay in Folkestone. Everything was perfectly appointed and thought out. Every time I thought “I wonder if they have ______” it was in the room. Beds and bedding were so comfortable, bathrooms were spotless, fridge had milk, every single thing we needed or wanted was there. Location was excellent for walking to a concert on the coast. Host was so friendly and helpful. Could not have been more perfect!

    My room had a bay window, lots of light and plenty of space. The rooms in the hotel were open and inviting too. The owner is very organised and good at explaining the where and how of the hotel and what was nearby. It was a short walk into town and the main shops and supermarkets yet far enough away from it to be quiet and residential Nice food for breakfast - lots f information about ingredients and so on.

    We had one of the newly refurbished rooms, which was excellent. Breakfast was lovely too. Just a note to the management, although the new shower is super modern, it is perhaps not very practical for the hotel as the shower door doesn't hold the water within the low profile tray and may cause some trouble.

    This is the 3rd time I've stayed in this accommodation in less than a year because I love being in Folkestone and I love this little place. The location is perfect for getting around to other places in Kent, the facilities are like home from home and the rooms are clean and extremely comfortable.

    You're only meters away from the Eurotunnel and the A20, yet you'd think you were deep in the beautiful Kent countryside. And to think in the past we'd drive into Folkestone for the night before a morning crossing to France. Never again...

    The Southcliff Hotel is situated on cliffs above the sea, some way below. The sea-view rooms give a great view and the town's facilities are a 10 walk away. Friendly staff, bar area, and the usual room facilities.

    The hosts are wonderful! I loved my room. I recommend the sausages at breakfast. If the weather is good, have a seat on the terrace and soak up some sun. Will definitely be my first choice of hotel in Folkestone.
