    We visited Capel le Ferne the Battle of Britain Memorial on the 104 bus route. We explored the harbour and walked right to the end where the small lighthouse bar is (not open as weather was a bit stormy). We visited St. Peter's Church where husband's parents were married. Went around the town exploring shops. We walked up the zig zag path on the L:eas and spent the day at the Annual Train Fair in the theatre overlooking the sea. Looking forward to returning when the Road of Remembrance is re-opened (disappointed it is still closed) and the cliff tram - hurry up and get it started again! Please don't build flats on the sea front - keep Folkestone sea front beautiful as it always has been. Congratulations on the restoration of the old platform on the harbour - it looks great and the small railway carriages serving food in summer. Looking forward to coming back for all the improvemnets!

    Folkestone has retained much of its old world charm.

    Folkestone has retained much of its old world charm. It is a very old town with a lot of interesting history, from smuggling to being a main port for departure and arrival from France for many years. It is surrounded by gently rolling hills and is only about a 45 minute drive to Canterbury. Folkestone's main shopping street has many small shops as well as a Sainsbury, Asda and Lidl store all close by. The old high street is very picturesque with a steep slope and a cobbled road. Folkestone harbour is a good place to visit and there is both a sandy beach and shingle beaches.

    We booked an overnight stay as we have stayed at the hotel before several times and found that it’s a good central location for the harbour etc. the buffet was disappointing. It was much better the previous time we stayed. The food was not enjoyable. We enjoyed the evening entertainment, so we will return and skip the buffet dinner.

    Folkestone is just up and coming enough that it is still funky, but also general feels safe. The arts quarter and harbour are particularly worth a visit with excellent art galleries, great bakeries and interesting options for street food or fairly priced restaurant food. Mermaid beach and The Leas are especially beautiful, but there are a lot of steep slopes and steps, so you need to be reasonably fit.

    Folkestone was a lovely surprise - so much to see and do - art everywhere, of all kinds (lights , sounds and sights!) museum great, lots of history, very wide range of restaurants and pubs. Great for families with the golden beaches and the harbour area with its surprise squirting fountain area! Cheerful place, quirky too. Easy to get buses for only 3 pounds each to neighbouring Canterbury, Hythe and Dungeness (adventures!) A vinyl record shop, traditional impressive promenade and gardens, free music at the bandstand - loved it!

    Massive emperor sized 180x200 cm comfy bed. Sea view with 2 large sash windows that can be opened. Fabulous shower both rain & hose options. Parking voucher for cheaper street parking £7 at the hotel. Great little coastal hotel in good location for walking along Folkestone’s esplanade above the beach (1km long) and easy access to the hillside gardens down to the beach.

    A well appointed comfortable apartment on Sandgate Esplanade. Great seaviews and bus stops right outside the door. Good location for accessing Kent south coast and Canterbury. Would highly recommend......only downside would be the number of stairs to access the apartment and internal stairs to access living area and bedrooms. Not a problem for fit and healthy!!

    I loved this hotel. There was all sorts of facilities and activities for everyone, and it is of course very big. However, it was also very quiet on the third floor where I had a lovely spacious room with a splendid view. If I every return to Folkestone I'll definitely use this hotel again

    The location is ideal. Near the station and right by the beach. Folkestone is lovely, and the hotel looks out to sea. The room was comfortable and clean in a basic way, and perfectly fine for 1 or 2 nights. I would stay again but only after building work has finished.

    The Portland Hotel doesn't look like much from the outside but I had a beautiful, comfortable room right next to Leas Cliff Hall. Friendly staff too. It's an excellent spot if you are visiting for Folkestone parkrun - the start is right next to the hotel.
