We stayed here prior to Le shuttle, our room was recently decorated, clean and quiet and at a great price. The staff were helpful polite and cheerful.
We paid an addition £4 for the on-street parking after 8am.
We’d use Westward Ho again
Excellent Budget stopover. Clean, warm & good location for Eurotunnel. Reception member Jay checked us in (we called 20 mins prior to arrival as instructed) & gave us all the relevant info - very friendly & helpful. Dog friendly. We’ll be back 👍
All mostly good could do with a working lift to top floor

Comfortable bed in small room with a great seaside view and a cold breakfast for a very decent price, comparatively. Downside was that the TV didn’t work, veggie options for breakfast were minimal and the building was a bit musty

Good location and size of room but in poor condition. The communal areas are poor too.
Staff was good but breakfast was more of something very basic and no cooked items.
Could have done the interior properly as they have few many properties and need looking after urgently.
Property was clean and room was comfortable.
Stairs were hard work and parking was limited.
We walked to the town centre , so that we didn't lose our space

Westward…
Sadly no lock on window and being on the ground floor we were not able to open window due to room smelling very musty because of damp on walls
Bed needs a topper and tightened up
Second bedside lamp needed
Loo made very strange noises
Shower was not clean
Room not clean…
Positive note Night manager Jay was very helpful
Towels were lovely
Breakfast was very good Thank you for GF products

I couldn’t fault the staff. Breakfast was welcoming.
Room was very poor.
Sagging mattress on bed. Plaster found on our bed! Beds need a good clean
We stayed as a family of 4 for a very quick stop before catching an early train. Hotel is clean, family room very large and comfortable beds. Staff were lovely on arrival.
Great little b and b with very friendly hosts. This is not a five star hotel, but had loads of lovely touches like tea and coffee, water, chocolates etc. Comfy and very clean, and they allowed us to keep our (clean) bikes in the room for the right before our ferry the next day. Breakfast was lovely, and did exactly what it said on the tin. Quiet area, albeit on a slightly less salubrious end of town - but we walked to and from town with two young children along the sea front for dinner and had no issues at all. Highly recommended.
Was definitely nicer than expected. Ive stayed at much worse hotels. Polite staff, clean room and we slept well. Plenty of tea and coffee facilities. Maybe the beds and mattresses could do with an update, but they were fine overall. We had breakfast delivered to our door in the morning as we were leaving early, good little selection and good quality food, we didnt eat the yoghurt tho as they were warm.
