Rooms & Views

Margate Hotel offers renovated rooms with modern amenities like flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, and free WiFi. Some rooms include a terrace, and all have a kettle. Family configurations are available, with larger rooms for groups. Double-glazed windows help cut street noise, though some rooms near the main road can be loud. The hotel has no elevator, so ask for a lower floor if needed.

Dining Options

The on-site restaurant serves buffet, continental, or Full English/Irish breakfast. Lunch and dinner include a varied menu, with room service available from 7 AM to 10 PM. The bar offers drinks and snacks. Breakfast is served from 6:30 AM, but check times at booking to avoid early departures. Guests rate the food as well-cooked and the restaurant as welcoming.

Leisure & Entertainment

Margate Hotel has an outdoor swimming pool with a shallow end, open all year. The pool is fenced for safety. The hotel provides free parking, 24-hour security, and CCTV. There is no separate entrance to the bar, so guests may see crowds near reception. The hotel is family-friendly, with rooms on a quiet side away from the restaurant noise. Some guests find the corridor noise disruptive at night.

Location & Transport

Margate Hotel is 400 meters from Margate Beach, a blue-flag beach with dolphins and whales visible. Nearby attractions include Mbumbazi Nature Reserve (11 km) and Southbroom Golf Club (13 km). It is close to shops, restaurants, and entertainment along the main road. Margate Airport is 4 km away. Free private parking is available, and public transport links connect to local sights.

Services & Amenities

The 3-star hotel offers 24-hour front desk, room service, and free WiFi. Staff are friendly and efficient, with WhatsApp availability for requests. Security includes fire extinguishers and smoke alarms. No telephones in rooms, but staff respond via messaging. The hotel has no kids' club or business center, but the restaurant is good for families. Parking is secure, and the bar is open to all guests.

“I found the proximity to the beach and local shops incredibly convenient, making exploration effortless. The sea-facing rooms provided a tranquil atmosphere, complemented by genuinely comfortable beds and pillows. The helpfulness of the staff and the general cleanliness throughout the property truly stood out, creating a welcoming environment.”
