Perfect position, value for money and comfort. Breakfasts were good. Bathroom was bigger than expected but had a problem with the cistern which gave us the sound of running water all night. Views were spectacular. Everything was expected.

Brilliant location and nice friendly staff. Breakfast was good even for us Vegans. Rooms are basic and you do have to share the loo and showers with other rooms but it's a great price for a basic hotel in the center of Deal seafront .

I have visited The Waterfront on 5 other occasions and loved it thought it was a little Gem. This place has been taken over and the pervious owner has run it into the ground. ||When arriving the place looked very shabby . …

Booked Sunday lunch for a party of 5 and was told that there’s another booking at 2:30 so could we leave by then (thought that’s not down to us). Getting nearer to 2:30 was reminded of this while waiting for them to clear the dinner plates. Said that we’d like to order dessert and coffee and the young male waiter got agitated with us ruining our birthday celebrations. I pointed out that this is not our fault as we waited a long time to receive our lunch. Food was very good but ruined by some immature customer service.

Unfortunately this place is very dated and in need of a major refurbishment. |We was in room 10 and we had to go down to the next floor because the toilet wasn't working on that floor. …
