“The London & Paris Hotel has clearly put effort into stylish restoration, with individually decorated rooms and those harbour views, especially from upper floors, are indeed lofty; the roll-top bath is quite a treat. The Harbour Inn, connected to the hotel, is best avoided based on reports, but the full English breakfast with focaccia earns high praise, so I'd say focus on the hotel restaurant itself. It seems a reasonable choice for a Folkestone stay, assuming you don't mind stairs.”

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The London & Paris Hotel is highly rated for its beautifully designed rooms, with Room No. 1 being especially praised for its thoughtful details and harbour views, even offering binoculars. Guests appreciate the comfort, often mentioning features such as luxurious linens, refreshing showers, and the ability to control the heating. Situated conveniently close to the harbour, some have noted that access is through the pub, and the restaurant's closure was a disappointment for some guests seeking on-site dining; however, the proximity to the Harbour Inn next door proved a delightful alternative for many.

The room was beautifully decorated and styled with great attention to detail. The staff members were friendly and helpful. Breakfast included a high-end fry up with a choice of eggs and toast with marmalade. I appreciate the restaurant downstairs. It is an amazing experience.

The bathroom could benefit from elevated toiletries, such as a face cloth or robe.
