Pros

The restaurant specializes in locally sourced seafood with á la carte dining.
Proximity to Botany Bay beach, just a minute's stroll away.
Two function rooms accommodate private events and weddings.
Free Wi-Fi access in all rooms and public areas.

“Botany Bay Hotel impresses with its cliff-top setting, offering uninterrupted sea views and immediate access to the beach; the recently refurbished rooms provide comfort and style, complemented by excellent service. I think the location is perfect. A taxi to Broadstairs or Margate is quick and inexpensive.”
