Good stay at the Holiday Inn

We checked in quite late, but check in was very quick. Staff were lovely - especially the lady on breakfast duty. Bed was comfortable. Only slight negative is that the bathroom was very small - you could only have one person in there at a time.

A nice stay in Dover

It’s a really nice experience to have stayed with this hotel. The staff (Suraj) carefully helped us with an interlinked set of two rooms which made our stay very much comfortable and convenient.
