The Castle House Guest House is homey, charming and comfortable, with a great breakfast. We were four guests in two rooms: me, my son, and my elderly parents. The stairs were a bit of a challenge for my mom and dad, as the stairways are very narrow, but the accommodations were clean and cozy. Okay, so I rated CHGH very high because it was just what we were looking for. It’s a converted home with a wonderful home-feel, right at the base of Dover Castle. That being said, here are the things to keep in mind: - narrow stairwells, can be tricky for lots of luggage. - both big and small rooms, the rooms won’t be uniform in layout. - on a hill, approach to the hotel is on castle hill so the walk is sloped. - it’s not particularly close to the train station, may warrant a cab if walking isn’t an option. What’s great - It’s a lived-in space, the family that runs it is in residence - Breakfast is delicious - It’s a great access either to the castle in one direction or one of Dover’s main streets in the other, with restaurants and shops.
