We were there to walk the White Cliffs and visit the castle. The location was suited to both.
Breakfast was splendid, substantial and nourishing.
The lady who runs the Guest House took immense trouble, cares for the property and her visitors impeccably. Recommended.

Great place to stop the night before a ferry crossing from Dover, only 10 to 15 minutes away. The staff were friendly and helpful and we ate in the pub on arrival, had a beautiful Sunday roast, food was great. The room was excellent for a nights stay with convenient parking, would recommend

It has great views and is a very spacious and comfortable place.
Dover is famous for the white cliffs which would have been a striking sight to the Romans as they advanced on England. They decided to construct a port at this strategic spot and it has held an important role ever since. Ferries to Calais and Dunkirk cross the English Channel several times daily and some brave souls even manage to swim across.
A Roman lighthouse still stands atop a hill overlooking the port, but is easily missed as it was incorporated into Saxon St Mary de Castro Church as the bellower. It is found within the grounds of 13th-century Dover Castle, one of England’s largest castles, whose multi-level ramparts sit above tunnels where the World War II Dunkirk evacuation was planned.
Another Roman monument is the Painted House whose remains include some of the best-preserved Roman murals north of Italy. Even older is the Bronze Age boat displayed in Dover Museum.
The Dover Transport Museum showcases vintage vehicles, and the Blériot Memorial marks the spot where the first airplane to fly across the Channel first touched English soil. A path runs along the top of the nearby cliffs, while at their feet is a shingle beach.
The Dover accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury hotels with pools, cheap inns and B&Bs near the train station.

Dover is a must see and can be placed on your bucket list. The walk along the cliffs is great and the Dover castle is well maintained and very interesting. Parking in Dover is as per all UK towns a problem and you need to plan accordingly or you can use the local bus services.

We spent a day and a half in Dover and came specifically to see the historical Fan Bay Shafts (National Trust) and Dover Castle (English Heritage).
We found Fan Bay Shafts interesting and very 'genuine' history. Note that it is 45 minutes underground in damp, but not cold, tunnels, wearing a hard hat and head torch.
Dover Castle warrants a whole day or more! Lots to see.
We had time to see Deal Castle too. Good as a contrast, as it is a Tudor fortification. They have tried hard with their pretty good first floor exhibition, but the basement is an underused and under-explained resource which could be much more imaginatively tackled.

Dover needs significant regeneration: the town is tired and not appealing. I have known Dover since 1965 and to be honest it is probably now at its worst, but I can see some small signs of improvement: however everything being demolished is becoming a car park!! Dover needs to look like Folkestone or Deal: more independent and unique shops to attract people. Not the standard chains stores and "cheap shops", which of course have their place but different shops attract curiosity.
The castle remains the main attraction, as does western heights and Dover Patrol memorial. Kirsney Abbey and Russell Gardens provide a tranquil side. the ride through Alkham Valley, always puts a smile on my face.

Dover is a very busy port town but also a town full of interesting history. We loved walking out along the pier, watching the ferries come in & go out, we enjoyed visiting Dover Castle very much, it is well worth putting a day aside to visit the castle and we found the town centre to contain everything we needed for our visit; minimart, chemist, shoe shop, pubs, restaurants & coffee shops. It’s small enough to walk everywhere & plenty to do. There’s a great walk along the famous white cliffs which we ran out of time to do but we’d like to come back one day & see more of this great town.
In all, Dover is a bit rough around the edges but a very interesting town to visit, especially if you like boats, the seaside & history.

Plenty to do in Dover and with travel issues (traffic and train strikes) well worth reducing the stress and planning a day in Dover. Premier Inn offered (online reservation) for Bag stashers. Local museum has amazing Bronze age boat! Dover castle has so many different historic periods covered - Roman lighthouse, Plantagenet castle and World war II hospital / headquarters - allow plenty of time.

Dover is really undergoing a regeneration process, the beach are is very popular and the marina is just lovely. The town itself is very run down indeed and we avoided it this time. We did spend a lot of time walking on the beach and enjoying the lovely atmosphere.
Bev and Michael were very welcoming hosts! We really appreciated all of the food recommendations and top tips on the local attractions. The breakfast was absultely amazing and they accommodated so kindly for our varying dietary needs. The location was great. Walkable distance from town center, train stations, Dover castle, and White Cliffs of Dover for my partner and eye! The room was so cute and well put together! If we ever find ourselves in Dover again, I would love to stay with Bev adn Michael!
We stayed here for one night, and had a really lovely room, and a very comfortable stay.
The owner welcomed us warmly and gave us useful tips for reaching the cliffs and for visiting the castle of Dover. Everything spotlessly clean, nice bathroom, bed and pillows were so comfortable.
Great location, friendly staff and well maintained hotel, perfect accommodation for a very good price. We'll definitely stay again when we are in the area!
The guest house is located close to the Dover castle, seaside and the city centre. Our room was quite spacious, with a beamed ceiling, two beautiful windows with outside flower boxes and was furnished in the "old" style. The bed was excellent. We were warmly welcomed by the concierge John, who gave us a great introduction to the city's history.
Staying at Les Fleurs was a pleasant experience. The host provided towels, linens, ect, and the location is extremely accessible to the town centre, the castle, shops, the cliffs and the beach.
It's not a 5 star hotel with all the bells and whistles, but for a short, cheap stay, it is adequate and the bathroom/dorms do the job!
The property was perfect location for our stop off at Dover, literally 10 minutes down the road to the port.
Apartment was clean and tidy, has everything you need for a stay.
Karen was lovely and accommodating, the weather wasn’t on our side but Karen went out of her way to make sure we had the best experience
Traditional, quirky English seafront hotel. Fine food and drink and very comfortable rooms. Right on the seafront promenade and within 5 minutes walk of town centre. Exceptional Night staff Mayur and his professionalism. Hotel is Good for Dover Castle and White Cliffs visits. We'd use it again.
It was a lovely hotel close to the centre of Dover with comfy beds and quiet rooms as well as a fantastic full English breakfast in the morning. The staff were extremely pleasant and very accommodating. I would highly recommend to anyway looking to visit Dover or who is waiting on the ferry.
I loved the room, the room was very clean, just attention to detail on stains on the floor needed.
The hotel was amazing; the staff were very polite and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. All areas were clean and tidy and made it feel very pleasant
We will definitely come back!
Because the family room is downstairs it felt like we had the whole downstairs to ourselves. The lounge area is right outside our room, which at first worried me because I thought if there’s people hanging out there right outside our room we saw one other person in the morning.
The hosts Margaret and Phillip were very welcoming. Their lovely B & B was conveniently located walking distance to the train station and town. They were very helpful suggesting ways to see the most in and around Dover. I was very grateful for their help and hospitality.
Accommodating and helpful. Arrived early with car trouble; hotel was easy walking distance from a decent mechanic, fish & chip shop, small grocery, off licence, local train depot, Dover castle, and lovely views. Perfect overnight before a morning ferry departure.
Just nice honest accommodation with a wonderful and gracious host. Breakfast is a deal if you make arrangements…everything you want in a B an B and you can walk to anything in Dover that you want to or need. Best nights sleep on my recent visit to England!
We have stayed at the old oak now about four times.
My Husband, our dog and myself stay overnight when we are going to France.
Its very convienient to get to the port of Dover its a really good place to stay and the breakfasts are very good.
Almost for same price hotels are available, sometimes hotels are cheaper. So mainly I was waiting slightly bigger room. But actually not bad, but not a perfect choice. I would recommend if hotels price are much bigger
Amazing place, great room. Pandora (hostesses) went above and beyond expectations. Stunning views and a great pool to relax in! Probably the best place you can stay in when visiting Dover.
+ Location was great (right on the beach and walking distance to the cliffs and castle)
+ Hotel included access to the spa (sauna, steam room and jacuzzi)
+ Very clean and warm room
Wonderful hosts in a lovely home, comfortable room with all the amenities, excellent breakfast, great location. Closest to Dover Castle and easy walk from train station or ferry.
