Top Ashford Hotel Reviews

Dover Marina Hotel & Spa, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The breakfast buffet was good; however, the elevator was small and slow. Since our room was on the 4th floor, we opted to use the stairs. These stairs led us to the 1st floor and then to the ground floor, exiting outside!"

King Charles Hotel

"Everything was fine and good value for money."

Ashford International Hotel & Spa
