Had a 2 day stopover while working in Folkestone - a well located guest house with good parking, friendly staff and a very good breakfast. Couldn't get the wifi to work but for a such a short stay I wasn't too fussed. If ever in the area again then would be very happy to return.

Good size room with plenty tea/ coffee facilities. Fan in room was a great help especially when warm. Nice big tv. Ample plugs. Parking wee bit difficult but free. Water cooler at breakfast is handyfor filling up bottles. Overall good maybe a wee paint freshen up. Breakfast good.

As this is a guest house, not hotel one expects different amenities. The Wycliffe met our expectations and was ideally located for our requirements. It's an old building that has been modified so the en suite was small with an electric shower. Given the high temperatures, the fan in the room was excellent and necessary. The breakfast was sufficient.

Good place to stay overnight before heading to the Euro tunnel with the motorcycle. Parking available for vehicles and parked my motorcycle front of the hotel entrance, all is safe and out of prying eyes.

rooms very basic. Barely enough room to stand up in the bathroom. Breakfast doesn't start until 7.30am asked if they could put out cereals and coffee at 7am - they said no. Not much good if you have an early start..

The room was cold with a small but capable electric radiator called upon to warm up a room with single-glazed windows. The breakfast was mostly store-bought items warmed up, except the toast and eggs and mushrooms which were nice. The orange juice was lower quality; another thought the coffee was instant. We got charged twice-- once through reserving with Hotels.com and the second time when they said they hadn't received payment. If it weren't for me going back to them with both receipts, we would have paid double.

We have stayed at the Wycliffe before & was quite happy with everything. This stay, the guest house has new owners who were pleasant enough. It appears they are upgrading the rooms. Ours looked refurbished . We were on the 2nd floor in quite a small room, bathroom was quite small. Beds were comfortable. Tea/coffee facilities, adequate. Breakfast was very nice & left a small review in their guest book. They are a few eateries in easy walking distance. Would recommend.

Das Zimmer war sehr klein. Die Toilette beziehungsweise die Dusche war noch kleiner. Die Größe des Bettes für zwei Personen für eine Nacht ausreichend waren vor zwei Jahren, war damals unter einer anderen Führung. Damals war alles sehr persönlich und wir hatten ein super breakfast. Das hatten wir diesmal nicht.

Nice place to stay overnight, when travelling to or from Europe. Although the place has been taken over 2 weeks ago, we were still allowed to put our motorcycles in the back garden, out of site

Just right for my needs. Good location for access to town plus free parking. Unfortunately I did have noisy people in adjoining rooms who played loud music and the room the other side had tv on loud but that’s the lack of concern for others that’s all too common now and not the fault of the guest house. Breakfast was good and staff polite and helpful.

Lovely, but

Lovely guest hotel with a very friendly and helpful host. But the room having a very small toilet room next door is not ensuite, the toilet roll holder was a battle to get any toilet paper and the low ceilings meant several bumped heads. Breakfast was rather ordinary.

We found our stay at the WyCliffe Guest House to be extremely pleasant and comfortable. The manager and owner (I guess) was very nice and the breakfast was very good. We can highly recommend this accommodation and would book there again on our next visit to England.

Tolle Unterkunft, freundlich und zuvorkommend

Wir sind mit 3 Personen und drei Motorrädern angereist und wurden direkt bei der Ankunft persönlich äußert freundlich begrüßt - uns wurde angeboten die Motorräder in den Garten zu stellen, somit waren sie von der Straße nicht sichtbar und sicherer aufgehoben. Insgesamt sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit.
