The breakfast is wonderful, the rooms are lovely and the staff is wonderful. The breakfast worker Justina is wonderful and very helpful. I would highly recommend staying here if traveling from Dover on the ferry or tunnel for a break from driving.
Another excellent stay at the Holiday Inn north Ashford. As always a lovely warm welcome from the staff and manager- a charming gentleman , who, when we arrived was doing his best to help a group of bikers who had suffered a breakdown . A real old school hotel with friendly staff. Excellent comfortable, clean rooms a great restaurant with great food and reasonably priced. This hotel has to be one of the best Holiday Inns and at this location is a great place to stop over on - route to the continent. Little else to say. Great hotel great people and good food. See you next trip.!
CCeejayblueSo quirky, all the rooms have different themes. Ours was Honeychild and has the bath in the bedroom with a milk churn fitted with the taps, separate loo which was a bit dark but again quirky. Over the bed there was a head of a cow made out of fibreglass. It was so good. The armchair was tatty in a perfectly fitting way and so comfy. The bed was so comfy and the pillows gorgeous. They provide a coffee machine, kettle and pods for the machine, hot chocolate and tea and there was an honesty box on the landing outside for extras. Milk and bottled water was available in the fridge of the landing. Plus there was a little decanter with some wonderful sloe gin in, a lovely touch. The only things that weren't quite right for me were the fact that the hairdryer couldn't be plugged in near the mirror (the mirror near the fireplace was a bit high for me as I'm only 5ft 4”). The steps up to the rooms are very twisty and if you have any mobility issues it can be very difficult to get up and down. The food, we had lunch and dinner on the first day and breakfast the next, was really good and locally produced. The staff were so lovely and friendly on all shifts. We would go back if in the area, especially for the food and the views of the church and the fields. There is also free parking which is great. I would recommend anyone if in the area to give it a try (and they are dog friendly :) ). Thank you to all the staff for a lovely stay.
