The Grand Burstin Hotel ★★★

📍 The Harbour, Marine Parade, Folkestone

"Good stay at the hotel. Check in online was simple and the keycard was ready when we arrived. Parking was £5 which was fine for the area. The room was basic but had everything we needed for 1 night. View of the sea and beach. Bar was relaxed, plenty going on at the hotel."

Rocksalt

Rocksalt ★★★★

📍 1 Back St, Folkestone

"I was expecting something special being familiar with the Restaurant Rocksalt. The room was functional clean but very small with the very comfortable bead taking up most of the room. There was neither room to work or relax apart from on the bed itself Good coffee machine but no proper fridge / mini bar just what I can only describe as a vey small electric cool box But it was functional as a place to sleep and had a small wet room / toilet facility Disappointed by two things really Nobody on site Monday and Tuesdays and so key was in a key box air-b-n-b style. When I got into the room there was a strong smell of fish (it’s by the harbour so probably from the fishing fleet facilities it adjoins) but nobody to speak to - couldn’t even get air freshener from them! No option to dine with them either which considering it’s a restaurant with some rooms was a surprise at best. The member of staff I did meet at check out was very nice and genuinely wanted me to have breakfast, but that brings me to my next point. The second was that Breakfast on Wednesday ( I’m guessing there isn’t breakfast available on Monday and Tuesday - at least during winter) didn’t start until 09.30 and finished at 10.30, which is at best very late, definitely not work friendly and in this instance too late for me Overall not bad but for over £100, in Folkestone, wasn’t exactly value for money"
