Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Shenandoah House Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Shenandoah House garners praise for its clean, spacious, and comfortable rooms, some offering garden views. Guests frequently mention the excellent full English breakfast with fresh orange juice, served in a cosy dining room, and appreciate the convenience of having a fridge and microwave available for use at any time. The location is ideal, with Westbrook Bay beach just a short walk away and Margate's Main Sands beach within a pleasant 10-15 minute walk, although some guests have noted that the rooms are not very soundproofed. The availability of on-street parking without restrictions adds to the overall positive experience and perceived value.

The host was super friendly. He accommodated my needs with ease. A continental breakfast selection offered good choices. The garden area was open for relaxation.
The room lacked proper soundproofing, a bit of a letdown. The shower's temperature fluctuated, a minor inconvenience. A mirror was absent near the sink, a small omission.

The breakfast was tasty and good value.
Soundproofing was not good in the room. The shower had major issues with temperature and pressure. It kept fluctuating. A mirror should be placed in front of the sink, because it was missing.

Jim helped us so much. he ensured our needs were met. breakfast offered excellent value and delicious options. i enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and proximity to local attractions. It was a short walk to town.
the sink in the room drained slowly. this made washing up a bit inconvenient. i hope they fix it soon
