Stunning property and flexible checkin/checkout
The woman I spoke to was kind enough to let me check in several hours early, and I was upgraded to an absolutely GORGEOUS room and full bathroom including large bath and separate bidet. The location was fantastic; close to the middle of town and the local beach, quick walk (though very steep) to the castle, in between walks to the white cliffs in either direction. She also let me leave my bags late while I explored more before leaving for the cruise port. All in all, one of the most beautiful properties I've ever stayed at, with friendly, flexible customer service. Would definitely stay again if I'm in Dover, and I highly recommend it to anyone else.

Thumbs up for Hubert House and Sarah.... thankyou!
I found the guest house very comfortable and the person who welcomed me (Sarah) very friendly which added to the pleasure of my stay. I hope to stay there again in the same room in the near future and look forward to the ecperience.

We stayed as a group of 4 girls in the room with upto 4 people accommodating. I have to say that we never expected such an amazing and delightful experience at Hubert House. All thanks to Farah, who went out of the way to take care of us and looked after every little need and request for us. Without her and the amazing accommodation ....our trip to Dover is incomplete ! The breakfast served was so delicious and had so many options. The room was as expected in the picture shown during booking. We all were so happy to live in that beautiful and splendid room. We will surely return back. I would prefer Hubert House with my eyes closed over any chain hotels like Travelodge etc ! Thank you Team Hubert House and Farah for giving us such a memorable experience of a lifetime !

Nice weekend stay in Dover
Stayed for the weekend in Dover and the guest house was lovely. The staff are very friendly and had knowledge of local attractions. The room was spacious and clean. The beds were super comfortable, and the shower great. Breakfast was great, with a wide selection of things available.

Ok, but lacks in customer service
We arrived early and did not expect to check in but wanted to just leave our bags. The hostess took a while to answer and when se answered the door she was quite annoyed that we arrived early. She ended up letting us check in early after complaining that we didnt alert her about it before hand. She then complained about requesting a taxi for us the next morning saying it was difficult to get. We dis not eat breakfast because we had to leave before 8:30. The food in town left a lot to be desired. The cliffs however were stunning and the ferry ride to Calais was lovwly.

Disliked: Staff & service
Room was clean and pretty, although I'm not sure it was the one we had indicated we wanted. Big complaint (tried to find a way to contact the manager privately, but could find no way to do so): She called us when we were at the Calais ferry terminal to ask when we expected to check in. I said we didn't know, as we weren't sure how much time it would take the ferry to arrive, how long it would take to catch a cab, how far the Dover terminal was from the hotel, plus we knew there was a time change. She was very persistent in her demands to know when we'd arrive--terminal was noisy and we were trying to deal with our luggage, etc. I finally asked a ferry employee when we would arrive. I was panicking because it was about 7 p.m. and I was afraid she was going to give our room to somebody else if we didn't arrive by a certain time. It ruined the trip across the Channel--my first--because I couldn't stop worrying about losing our room on the last day of our trip. There was no need to put us through this--manager should try to be more understanding of what foreign travelers are going through and how upsetting a call like this can be.

Good position & good breakfast.
The hostess is very friendly & welcoming., although we were unsure where it was & tried to call numerous times, to ask directions, but there was no reply, so we were worried that there was no-one in. However, she was there & was very informative. The house itself is very tired looking & old fashioned when you enter. The hall area is small & cramped and had hazard tape over the letter box, which doesn’t give a good feeling. The landlady did ‘upgrade’ us to her 4 poster bedroom from the double we had booked, which was much better and I would recommend. The bed was very comfortable & the room well appointed. Breakfast was very nice & plentiful, & the breakfast room is light & airy. Overall a good position for the castle & the harbour, with good parking facilities,

Nice B & B in central location
This is a nice boutique type B&B in central Dover. It's central location is its biggest asset and biggest drawback at the same time. It is in easy walking distance to the town centre and a five minute drive to the ferry terminals. But the central location also means some traffic noise. The building feels cramped due to too many doors and narrow staircases but the room we had was a good size and spotlessly clean. The owner is friendly and helpful.

Lovely & great location
Lovely big family room en suite. My boys absolutely loved it. Plentiful breakfast and enough parking. Great location for Dover castle that could be reached by foot, and close to town also. Has a lovely pub close by where channel crossing swimmers sign their achievements on the walls- very interesting. We did not try the food at the pub as it was a free food Wednesday where we could bring our take away and they would provide warm plates, cutlery and sauces.Brilliant idea!!! The hotel host had a warm psrsonality and made sure we had enough local information. Great stay and will definitively go back.

Cute little B&B very close to the castle. Great breakfast in the basement, the hostess was kind and helpful. If you need to leave your bags early, call first! We just lucked out that someone was there at 2 pm. Otherwise a great stay for a night

Loved Dover
We have stayed many places in the past weeks, and we have travelled many times, but we have never stayed in a place where you can't leave your luggage. I think it would be very important to state on the check in that it is very strict on the 4:30 check in and that no one is at the house till then. I think for travelers to try to book flights, driving times and train times around that time is important. It is difficult to drag luggage around with you. We have arrived at places in the past that also has 4 or 4:30 check in, and if our train arrives early you can leave your luggage somewhere and walk around till check in time or till your room is ready. We were not aware that there is no one there till that time and we were fortunate that we caught the women just leaving when we arrived, I am not sure what we would have done if no one was there. We had an extremely small room and had trouble with 2 of us moving around in it. I booked from other people's past experience and I very sorry it was not a positive experience for us.
