Very cute and comfortable room. Outstanding management. The gentleman that ran the hotel was very knowledgeable of the area and told us all about the local history. The hotel is walkable to the castle and the cruise port.

Beautiful quaint guest house, hosted by the kind and very helpful John and his lovely wife who went above and beyond. John was helpful in sharing information about local attractions as well as nice places to eat. Really enjoyed a quiet weekend away at the coast. Must stay if you’re in Dover.

Our host, John is the best!
The best part about our stay was our host, John! He told us about the history of the area and recommended restaurants and a side trip to Canterbury which we didn’t have on our itinerary and was so glad we did! Thanks again John!!

Close to the Castle. Free on street parking opposite the guest house. Large bedroom with a sitting area. It is dated, but clean and does the job. Convenient to walk into town. 5 stars for John who works there. Such a lovely, friendly guy.

St. Martins Guest House was conveniently located within town and perfect for our stay in Dover. John the concierge was kind, helpful and shared his wealth of knowledge about the area and the local history. Our cruise ship was delayed for multiple days and John was able to accommodate us and saved us from having to find another place to stay in an already very full town. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for all of your help!!

John was great to work with during our stay. There is no sitting space outside your room in case you arrive early or leave later and no food service option. Very close to Dover castle. Bed not that comfortable. Dated decor and the shower is literally in the room and not a separate bathroom.
