Hotel vicini a Margate Old Town a Margate

This hotel has both good points and bad points.  I'll start with the good ones... The staff member we dealt with almost exclusively, called Justine, was absolutely charming, and made a real effort to welcome us.  She was also really helpful with advice about local restaurants and so on.  She is a real asset! The room was beautifully decorated, with a lovely sea view, a comfortable bed, nice sheets, lots of big towels, good quality bath products, and  well-stocked with facilities, like hair-dryer, iron, and safe. The tent in the garden, where we had our drinks on our first evening, was lovely, and would actually make a really nice venue, for something like a small, family party, or some such thing.  The basement bar itself, is also quite pleasant. However, a big issue for us was that we only discovered on arrival, that breakfast was not included in the price.  We're absolutely sure that it was mentioned in the website that we booked through, and we would never have booked the hotel, if it didn't include breakfast, as that's one of the main things that we enjoy about going away.  The website of the hotel apparently doesn't say breakfast is included, but we didn't actually look at that.  Also, the word ”restaurant” appears both outside and inside the hotel.  This meant that we ended up spending something in the region of £50 more than the cost of the room, having to eat elsewhere, which we haven't budgeted for.  I had actually spoken to a man the day before we arrived, because we were having trouble booking a restaurant for friends on the Monday night, and wondered if the hotel had a dining room.  He mentioned they didn't serve dinner, but did not take that opportunity to tell us that they didn't serve breakfast.  Whilst we understood the reasons explained to us, why they no longer serve breakfast, it would have been really helpful to know in advance.  They certainly need to sort out the information on booking company websites.  The bathroom initially looked spotlessly clean, but we had trouble with the sink, which drained really slowly, so we ended up actually having to just take out the whole plug mechanism; and when I had my shower on the first morning, the shower didn't drain at all, so I ended up pulling out the plug mechanism in the shower as well, and unfortunately, I found it absolutely clogged up with long, black hair, which was absolutely gross.    Overall, I would say that if breakfast isn't important toyou, then this is probably a decent place to stay, but we would certainly not go back there ourselves. 

We visited the Selina between the 26th and the 29th of August this year. The hotel is quite far away from the centre of Margate - much further than it looks on the map. The hotel itself is spacious and clean with its own public bar and a lift to all floors. The issues I had were with the room. We booked a basic double as we were intending to spend most of our time discovering Margate we didn't need much! But boy they weren't kidding when they said it was basic, we didn't even have a T.V or any tea/coffee making facilities (not that we drink the stuff) all we had was a bed that was FAR too firm, two bed side tables (only one with a draw in) and a rail with a bag on the end containing a hairdryer. Now on to the bathroom, when we booked this hotel we booked a room with what was advertised as a ”private” bathroom... They said this was the case as our room was the only room that had access to this bathroom it even had a plastic laminated sign blue tacked to it saying ”private bathroom for room ***” however to access the bathroom from our room we had to leave our room go into a hallway that had another room in it and a glass fronted door onto the stairs. This was where our bathroom was and not only that but it was impossible to lock the bathroom door from the outside so while I'm fairly sure the guests in the room opposite didn't use our facilities I have no guarantee it also meant that we had to wedge the door to our room open when we went to the bathroom so that we didn't have to continually take the room key with us to get back into our room again! One day I tried to use the shower only to find that no matter what I did the water just would not get hot now to be fair to the hotel staff they did give us a choice: wait until it was fixed ( which they weren't sure how long this could take ) or use the facilities in another room on the same floor or at least kind of on the same floor as because of the way this hotel is set out our room was on a little off landing between floors, so to get to this other room - which is what we did in the end - we had to go up the stairs and along the corridor, which as you can imagine was a bit of a hassle but we both needed a shower! All in all while I would visit Margate again in the future I don't think I will be visiting the Selina any time soon.

Una festa era in corso fino a mezzanotte e non riuscivo a dormire bene.

Have just had a fantastic little break in Broadstairs, this place is lovely a real gem, small and perfectly quirky. The staff were all friendly, welcoming and very helpful, everything asked/enquired about was met with a smile response. The food was amazing and my husband has discovered his love of cocktails. A big thank you to all the staff for making our time in Broadstairs so enjoyable, we will definitely stay again and highly recommend it.
