What guests think
Across reviews, The Marquis of Granby is praised for exceptionally friendly, attentive staff, stylish and comfortable rooms, and standout food at breakfast and dinner, with many guests finding it a convenient, relaxing base for Kent, Dover, and Channel Tunnel trips.
Many also note very clean spaces and considerate dog friendly touches. Common drawbacks include some room noise (thin walls or kitchen extractors), occasional air conditioning issues, and prices in the restaurant that a few found high. A characterful country inn stay suited to both stopovers and weekend escapes.

Highly recommended, the staff was amazing, the property was amazing, and the facilities and being pet friendly also amazing was booked as an overnight stay after a long journey from the Dominican Republic via Madrid, Paris, and then the Channel Tunnel before a very long drive north to Scotland. The room was so comfortable, the restaurant 1st class and the value for money that included a wonderful breakfast was perfect. 15 minutes from the Channel tunnel so perfect for those who are traveling either way before continuing their journey. Loved it. The staff were amazing..

Booked Marquis as we had heard good things & wanted a short post-Christmas break, we were not disappointed. The property, staff & food were excellent. We did not venture outside the hotel but know Deal well & went there first to walk the dog on the beach, the Marquis is c.20 minutes by car. Fabulous relaxed stay & we will come back in the summer to try out their terrace.

The Marquis of Granby is a gem of a find for anybody. In a secluded valley yet little distance for the tunnel and ferry link. The hotel is beautifully decorated and has great character. The food was excellent with varied choices for all. As for the staff I could not speak more highly of them. From the manager to bar staff they were helpful and accommodating with a friendly manner which makes you feel relaxed and at ease. Equally as I was travelling with a dog they were quick to offer water for her. I have already recommended it to several of my friends as a must if in the area. I look forward to staying there again. A big thank you to the staff.

After driving from Le Mans and a Ferry from Calais this hotel was just what we needed. Such a beautiful building decorated and furnished perfectly. Although not having a disability we stayed in the room adapted for disabled people. Having previously been in the caring profession I couldn't see anything that could be improved. The fittings did not hamper me or my partner who are able bodied. The room was warm and welcome tea/coffee kettle etc. in the room. Breakfast was delicious and choices available. It was very well presented. Ashley and his team were friendly and professionally efficient. Would recommend and want to visit for a longer time.

Absolutely lived up to its previous reviews, warm friendly pub, excellent service from such pleasant and helpful staff. The room was spacious, well appointed, airconditioned, and no shortage of tea, coffee, and spring water. Ultra clean en-suite, and a bed that hugged you when you were ready for lights out. The food was amazing, cooked so that the flavours hit your taste buds, with plenty of choices on a 'cant make my mind up what to choose' menu.Recommended for a stop over, or definitely an evening meal if you dont have the time to stay and sample the open fire and the friendly service.

Perfection - graceful yet welcoming & cosy decor and the friendliest staff who really want to make your stay perfect. Kind, relaxed hosting from every member of the team, and especially welcoming to my dog! Dinner was sublime, and breakfast was generous and delicious. Cherry on the cake was the indulgently deep copper soaking bath. A great find, one to return to again and again.

The adjoining room walls were not soundproofed. The guests in the next room spoke very loudly after 10:30pm. I had to put a pillow over my ears to block out their conversation. Otherwise, the room was clean & the bed was comfortable. However, the Kitchen extractor fan was below our room & quite noisy when in operation.

Our holiday via the shuttle got off to a bad start as we had to return home 3 hours into the journey to collect a forgotten vital item. Consequently we arrived at the Marquis of Granby (via a typical M25 traffic snarl up) after the kitchen had closed down for the night. Without being prompted, we were offered soup and cheese board by Silva (the manager). Beer was good and bar staff cheerful. Excellent all round.

This was a last minute spur of the moment decision for us as we were visiting a friend, and it was possibly the most relaxed night away we have ever had. And all for the most reasonable price ever. Even the locals in the bar were lovely!

We stayed 3 nights, eating in each night. It is a really lovely establishment which has exceptional food and wonderful attentive staff. The full English breakfast is very good quality food cooked to a high standard, served by very friendly staff, perfect way to start your day! The evening meals carried on with quality food and cooking. Special mention here to Sam & Emily for exceptional service, smiles and making our anniversary special.

I've stayed at a lot of hotels and B&Bs around the world. This is without question the best experience I've had. The food is phenomenal, from a delicious Sunday roast and breakfast to seriously impressive desserts. The dining room is beautiful and cosy. The service is equally exceptional - every single person who works here is lovely. The bedroom my partner and I shared was beautiful, and truly unique. There were lots of pleasant surprises, and the bed was very comfortable. All in all, what a fantastic way to spend a day trip! We will be returning.
