Guest Reviews
- Christophe (8/5): -
- Ann (10/5): - Sandra our host was so friendly and accommodating. She made sure the room suited us and if there was anything else needed. The location was great! Highly recommend!!!
- Yulia (7/5): It was absolutely fine for a short overnight stay. - We only stayed one night at Maison Dieu Guest House, and for that purpose it was perfectly adequate overall. The bed was large and comfortable, so we slept well. It was also a plus that parking was available — we could leave the car there and easily walk into town or conveniently call an Uber to the castle.
Communication was quick and straightforward, and the check-in via key code was simple as well, which made the arrival very pleasant.
Overall though, it was absolutely fine for a short overnight stay. We stayed in room 6. I had actually hoped to get one of the rooms with a view of the castle — perhaps that’s something you need to specifically request in advance.
The bathroom, however, was very small and felt a bit improvised, almost like a converted storage room without a window. The house was also quite noisy, and we could clearly hear conversations from the neighboring rooms. Fortunately, it was mostly older ladies staying there, and it became quiet later on.
We also found the smell in the room a little unusual, as it strongly smelled of incense.
- Joyce (7/5): Was a nice little stay within walking distance to pubs and the castle -
- Terry (10/5): Would definitely stay there again! - Great location near town and the train station. Our room was very clean and nicely decorated. The owner had great recommendations for meals and helped us reserve a shuttle to the cruise ship for the next day.
- Arie van Herk (9/5): Prachtig centraal gelegen verblijf - Midden in centrum en vriendelijke host Nvt
- Barbara (8/5): -
- Barbara (8/5): -
- Paul (7/5): Comfortable, but a bit of a squeeze. - The single bed was surprisingly comfortable, given it was somewhat short for my 6ft frame. Single room and external bathroom/ toilet are VERY small. That is not immediately obvious from their website.... Makes things difficult if you have luggage. I had a backpack and it was a squeeze to fit everything in comfortably. The accommodation holds itself out as "walker friendly" but I saw nothing to substantiate that. Indeed if you arrive after 1:30pm you can't get any access to leave your backpack so as to explore Dover & the castle unencumbered. You have to carry it around with you until 4:30pm earliest check-in.
- Aga (9/5): Just as described, great location and no fuss accomodation! - Perfect location for my event. The room was very tidy and compact. It had all I needed!
Thank you Sandra! Nothing! Everything was described
- Stefanie (10/5): Liebevolles Zimmer in top Lage - Ich habe bereits zum 6. Mal dort übernachtet und freue mich jedes Mal auf die liebevolle Einrichtung und die aufmerksamen Details.
Die Unterkunft liegt sehr nah an der Fähre und man kann von dort sehr gut zu Fuß in die Innenstadt laufen.
- Lucas (7/5): War für eine Transferübernachtung ok. - Ohne Früstück Badezimmer (Dusche) etwas spartanisch, Parkplatz direkt vor dem Haus, sehr eng.
- Michael (10/5): Excellent B&B in Dover in walking distance to town Center - Perfect B&B in Dover, friendly owner, good breakfast, easy walking distance into town Stairs - if you have lots of luggage it could be challenging
- Caroline (10/5): Enjoyed our stay which was comfortable clean and close to town - Very clean
Had everything we needed
Close to the castle and town
Very quiet Nothing
- Nataliya (7/5): - onvenient location, just 5 minutes after getting off the ferry. Quite clean. The room is small, and for some reason food delivery is not allowed. There is no separate area for eating or breakfast. The stairs are quite steep. The building is rather old, so there’s a musty smell, which they seem to try to mask with strong air fresheners.
- Nina (8/5): -
- Nigel (10/5): Perfect Stay - Bed was so comfortable, it has to be one of the best.
Perfect location very clean and staff were very friendly. Nothing really. Everything was good
- Francesca (8/5): -
- Steven (8/5): - Very clean, tidy, staff helpful Would have preferred a bathroom en-suite ideally
- Blown (10/5): -
- Jürgen (7/5): Für eine Übernachtung nähe der Fahre war die Übernachtung ok. - Duftkerzen und Duftstecker im Zimmer und in ganzen Haus
- Brooke (9/5): -
- Sabine (8/5): sehr günstig gelegenes , nettes Zimmer , um mit der Fähre überzusetzen - Das Zimmer war ruhig , ,lag sehr günstig zum Fährhafen , 5 min mit dem Auto
- Hannah (8/5): -
- Jérôme (8/5): Bon séjour ! - Nous avons occupé une chambre avec un lit double et un lit simple. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'accueil de notre hôtesse qui nous a permis d'accéder à la chambre plus tôt que prévu. La chambre était bien chauffée, calme, propre et confortable. La vue de notre chambre sur l'arrière de la maison était belle. Le débit d'eau dans la douche un peu faible.
- LUN CHUAN (10/5): 睡得很滿足 - 很舒服
一躺下來就睡著了 沒有
- Elizabeth (8/5): - Very clean and comfortable. Host was lovely. Attention to detail was great. Room was quite small and the bathroom was separate from the bedroom, which i didn't realise when booking.
- Manon (9/5): Prima - De netheid en hygiëne is prima
- Brett (5/5): Disappointing - Seperate shower/toilet which was cold and heater out of reach. Problem with cold water tap in bedroom. Sometimes water did not flow. Other times difficult to turn off completely. Light on heater too bright. Pillows too firm.
- Robert (10/5): -
- David (1/5): -
- Elizabeth (8/5): - Sandra was very friendly and the accommodation was very clean. Attention to detail was great. Location was excellent. Didn't realise the bathroom was separate from the bedroom, but it worked ok.
- Andreas (8/5): -
- Patrick (9/5): -
- Craig (2/5): Very over priced for what I got felt more like a hostel - Had parking 2 tiny single beds,thought had double bed.was a separate room for bathroom & toilet which I believed was shared.very small tele.very over priced
- John (8/5): A good place to stay - Instructions for arrival were clear. The room was nicely decorated and cosy. The room and bathroom were immaculately clean. Location ideal. We didn't initially opt for breakfast, but it was unavailable at the time we stayed.
The thermostat on the shower was a bit inconsistent.
- Eyal (10/5): -
- Lucy (9/5): Great for ease to get an early ferry - Easy to find great location for Ferry, clean and super comfortable bed just need a larger, thicker quilt as the room was cold.
Service when contacting by phone and message communicafion was also great. Small qulit for double bed and wasnt very warm
- Alina (8/5): Super cute and cosy, juste take bigger room with en-suite bathroom. - Good location, nice house. Cosy and super-super clean. All the supplies are there - coffee, tea, heating, ventilator… By mistake I booked the sigle room with external bathroom which itself is super nice, clean and with everything you need, but a bit uncomfortable if you need to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
But it’s more personal rather than a hotel problem.
- 萬欽Wanchin (8/5): -
- Britta (8/5): Optimale Lage - Sehr gute Lage, gut geheizt und sehr sauber. Sehr freundliche Betreiberin. Etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Parkplatz vor dem Haus war vorhanden, aber zu eng für unseren Ford Nugget. Gut, dass genau gegenüber ein anderer Parkplatz vorhanden war, den man am Wochenende nicht bezahlen musste.
- Francesca (8/5): -
- Malgorzata (10/5): - We did like the host, room.
It appeared that location was perfect for our planned walk to the shore - we had to climb the Hill with WONDERFUL view. It was a bit cold in the bathroom, but that is how it it in UK :-)
- Peter Immanuel (6/5): -
- Amanda (8/5): -
- Valentina (10/5): -
- HSIN YI (9/5): 很推薦去Dover的人入住 - 乾淨度,真的是一塵不染 洗澡的水溫比較難調整,但這不是問題
- Glenn (8/5): -
- Rob (9/5): -
- Alexandra (8/5): -
- Jakob (7/5): Ok sted når man skal se Dover Casle og skal med færgen. - Det var ok, lå tæt på Dover casle. Der var ingen morgenmad selvom der var reklameret med en restaurent, og der hang skilte på værelserne om hvorvidt man havde allergier i forhold til mad og kunne tale med personalet om det!!! Der var intet mad og intet personale!
- Stefanie (9/5): - Sehr schönes gemütliches Zimmer. Lag sehr gut zum Hafen und Restaurants. Host war sehr lieb und freundlich. Direkt an einer lauten Durchgang Straße. Toilette war außerhalb des Zimmers, allerdings nur beim Einzelzimmer.
- Phoebe (9/5): -
- Feddema-Baarsma (7/5): - Locatie in centrum Bedden van de kamer met 2 1-persons bedden zijn te klein.
- Anne (5/5): Niet wat we hadden verwacht - De locatie dichtbij de haven, ivm ons vertrek met de ferrie de volgende ochtend. En dat er een parkeerplaats was. Te warm, daardoor met ramen open geprobeerd te slapen, maar door de ligging aan een drukke weg, veel geluidsoverlast en dus weinig geslapen. Er was een ventilator aanwezig, maar die vonden wij ook niet fijn.
De badkamer in kamer 6 was klein. Te klein. Mijn man is groot (2 meter) en paste nauwelijks in de douche. Kon zich in de douche nauwelijks bewegen
- Bruce (10/5): Great location & wonderful hostess. -
- Kerry (8/5): -
- Ulrich (5/5): Völlig überteuertes Hotel mit verstaubten Zimmern und einer uralten sanitären Ausstattung - Die Lage ist ok und das Parken problemlos Sehr verstaubtes Hotel mit völlig überteuertem Preis, der absolut nicht gerechtfertigt ist. Die Ausstattung ist wie in einer Jugendherberge. Frühstück wird gar nicht angeboten.
- Christiane (8/5): - Schönes sauberes Zimmer, habe mich wohlgefühlt.
- Valérie (8/5): -
- Silke (10/5): -
- Helene (7/5): -
- Wenneke (8/5): - Convinient location, good beds Room was a bit small for 4 people

- Brigitte (8/5): -
- Johanna (8/5): -
- Daniela (8/5): - Schöne Saubere Unterkunft mit Parkplatz vor der Tür. Hilfsbereite freundliche Gastgeberin. Nur wenige Minuten vom Fährhafen entfernt.
- Lennard (8/5): -
- Jennifer (10/5): - Sehr sauber. Sandra ist das Herz des Hauses.
- Co (8/5): Uitstekend - Kamer wat klein maar prima locatie, Heel vriendelijke en behulpzame eigenaar. Niets
- Kateryna (7/5): -
- Marvin (7/5): war sehr schön - gemütliches Ambiente, Nähe zur Stadt, gute Verkehrsanbindung Eher kleines Zimmer, Bad auf dem Flur statt im Zimmer integriert
- Clara (9/5): - Propreté, très bien placé, confortable !
- Russell (9/5): - Clean comfy and perfect for what we needed There was only positives
- Karen (10/5): - Nice and clean place to stay especially before or after a cruise.
Great service provided
- Tonisha (10/5): - Absolutely great place to stay before our cruise. The hostess was wonderful and we had a room that was perfect!
- James (8/5): - We stayed here the night before our cruise was to leave out of Dover in late July. We were able to walk to the hotel from Dover Priory. You do need to ring the door bell and wait for the hostess to let you into the from door at the B&B. Our room was nice and spacious with its own en-suite bathroom, but it did not have air if that is a need for you. They provided you with a fan and it made comfortable for sleeping. You are close to dining, Dover Castle and the cliffs of Dover. We chose to walk to the port from our hotel and it was about 35 minutes. Some areas around the hotel need attention. If you need a cab they are available, but on cruise days the wait can be long to get a cab.
- Nicola (8/5): Very good -
- Linda (4/5): Not Happy - My stay here was difficult at best. Listing states “restaurant.” There is No restaurant. Listing mentioned “breakfast.” There is no breakfast. There is no laundry as stated. And, worst of all, there is no flexibility whatsoever on 4:30 check-in. My overseas plane arrived at 0630 and I arrived at this place at 10:00. The owner acted as if I was an intruder at the door and firmly stated 4:30! I explained my situation and offered to pay more if I could access my room earlier. No! By 2:30 after 30 hours of no sleep, I came back and told the owner I did not feel safe any longer wondering around Dover without any sleep. I asked if I could sit on the stairs outside. She said no, that I could go to a park and wait there for 2 more hours. Absolutely no flexibility or concern whatsoever for guest. I did meet other guests staying who expressed the same opinion of this place.
So, while the rate is attractive, I would definitely pay more for a better place.
- Karen (8/5): Well located but noisy - Great location in Dover, walkable to town centre, cliffs and Dover Priory station. We were in room 6 which was at the front of the property on the top floor, two flights of stairs, no lift, which is normal in English properties. The room was a very good size and spotlessly clean. Towels were changed daily and bins emptied. Bed is comfortable. Host and daughter are very friendly and helpful. The only downside we found was the traffic noise from main road and very loud seagulls, when the windows are closed it is quiet but you need to use the fan which is very effective but sounds like a small aircraft, either way you will need sleep earplugs or noise cancelling earbuds to sleep
- Fiona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lisa (7/5): Our stay was adequate to our needs and there was a great view of Dover Castle from the window of one of our rooms. I wou - It was a good location for what we needed. The price was reasonable. We had a lot of luggage as we were preparing to embark on a 2 week cruise, and all of the rooms were up a narrow and steep stairway. The stairway was not well lit and not air conditioned so it was stuffy. The rooms were nice but a bit cramped with all the luggage. The hostess was helpful in getting our luggage put away and in ordering a taxi for us for the next day, but she seemed in a hurry for us to leave.
- Habouzit (9/5): Superb - Sandra welcomed us very well despite the late hour. The rooms were pleasant, Rien de particulier
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kahli (10/5): Cozy and comfortable - We liked the friendly staff and homely vibe of the place, it was also walking distance to the cliffs, castle and the local Wetherspoons which was a big plus.
- Lorna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jenna (9/5): Superb -
- Aleksandra (10/5): - Cozy, cute single bed with down the hall private bathroom. Walkable to train, castle and beach.
- Karla (10/5): - The host was kind and eager to please us. The room was perfectly prepared for us and suited all of our needs for an overnight stay. The house is located in a perfect spot to enjoy and explore Dover.
- Linda (8/5): Cute room conveniently located - Conveniently located to port No A/C it was a bit warm! We were on the top floor lugging up luggage 3 floors!
- O'neill (8/5): Very good -
- Mandy (9/5): Overall it’s good and comfortable stay here. - Clean and comfortable, staff is helpful to get the luggages downstairs, help to call and pre-book a taxi to cruise port. Need to carry luggage walk upstairs, if only an age lady will be hard, with a man is ok.
- Pauline (10/5): The perfect place to stay - Such a warm welcome. Room beautifully presented with those small additions that mean so much. A really happy experience. Please congratulate thecowners for a truly valuable and heart warming experience. Nothing
- Dr (8/5): Very good -
- Toni (7/5): Nice place but needed better fans to cool down, depending on what side of the bed you slept on. - Spacious and clean. Easy walking distance to town. Small TV and no air conditioning. Very‘sweaty’ night.
- Kristi (10/5): - Pleasant stay and great accommodation!
- Michael (8/5): Very good -
- Marco (8/5): Very good - Very clean. Very close to the Ferry Terminal.
- Liliana (6/5): Good location, climate makes a difference in comfort within the room as no A/C. - Location was perfect for visiting the local sites. Also parking on premises. Weather was hot and fan wasn't sufficient to make room comfortable. Bathroom very small and linens old but were clean.
- Sandy (10/5): Exceptional -
