Firstly, the staff member who I met whilst checking in was very polite, informative and kindly showed me to my room and carried my suitcase. The 'hotel' is in a nice position near the seafront on an attractive square in which Vincent Van Gogh once lived! Breakfast was ok. Not the best, but not the worst either. Helpful to have a mini fridge in my room too to store milk and drinks.
Unfortunately the 'hotel', which it really isn't, hostel would be a better description, is in serious need of renovation. Whilst some attempt has been made to 'freshen it up' in recent years, i.e paper over the cracks, slap some white paint over plus some dodgy DIY bathroom fitting, it has been badly done and needs a proper overhaul. I was given room 10 in the attic, up a tight little spiral staircase. It was advertised as having a private bathroom, but I wasn't expecting it to be separate from the room, back down the stairs to some grubby little hole! The bedroom was covered in dated artex which had white paint roughly slapped over. The furniture was the cheapest you could buy and there were electric cables trailing everywhere! But the most frustrating thing was the windows didn't shut properly and the wind and rain whistled through all night and I didn't sleep well. The funniest thing was that I noticed the hotel had a framed 'commended' award given by the council proudly hanging on the wall by reception. It was dated November 1991! Says it all! Hopefully this place gets the TLC it needs one day.

A nice clean room in a quiet area. It’s in a good location, a short walk from the beach and plenty of shops nearby. The host was friendly and laid back. I would stay again if I visited Ramsgate.

Genuinely baffling that this place is considered 3* by anyone. On arrival, we were shown to room 7 (photos attached) - buckets on the floor to catch the rain coming through the ceiling, a massive water stain on the bed, a bathroom door that only opened from the outside (girlfriend was glad she wasn't staying on her own!) and a curtain rail falling off so you couldn't shut the curtains.
The guy who checked us in was nice and friendly and moved us, but given they have 10 rooms and there was only 1 other couple there over the weekend, baffling they put us in there initially.
Bit of a farce at breakfast too - partially my fault as I'd not read the blurb to say breakfast cost extra. We saw it was a B&B from the outside so thought we'd make the most of it. Only when we were eating were we informed that the (pretty grim, incorrect items of) breakfast we'd ordered were chargeable at £10 each! We'd have gone elsewhere if we'd known it was chargeable. Again, staff on the day were lovely and just felt bad for her having to be the face of such a poor place.
Honestly baffling how this place functions. Would HIGHLY recommend finding somewhere else.

I love these type of B&B’s. This B&B is steeped in history built in the 18th century, On the land owned by the Spencer family, Vincent Van Gogh also lived on the square, so this is not a modern hotel if that’s what you’re looking for, it has steep stairs and smallish rooms, but is full of character, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the hospitality was fantastic and the breakfast was delicious, the pub on the corner is very friendly and only a short walk to the beach.

The staff- Gary and Hamid - were friendly and helpful, carrying my heavy suitcase, up three flights of stairs. The WiFi connection was wonderful. The breakfasts were generous and delicious. My en suite had everything I needed.

It was more of a B&B than hotel, however the staff were friendly and welcoming, breakfast was plentiful and well worth the £2.50. Refrigerated bottled water was provided in a communal fridge which was great in the hot weather.

This is an old building and that was reflected in the facilities.
Cleanliness minimal but bed was pristine and very comfortable.
Nowhere to sit in the room, only on the bed.
Guest sitting room, tired and minimal furnishing. There was a fridge with free bottled water.
Owner welcoming. Breakfast very good, cooked to order.
OK experience.

I enjoyed the location as so close to the harbour and seafront in Ramsgate. My room was comfortable and I slept well. The service was very friendly and efficient.
The only thing I can say that the breakfast time was too late to fit into my day so I had to forgo it. I needed to be in Pegwell Bay Country Park at 8.30am.

The Spencer court Hotel is such a lovely quiet little place. Was very easy to access the beach and amusements. Not far from the seafront. The staff at the hotel are all very well mannered and polite. It was a nice friendly place to stay at. And the Breakfast is very nice. Thankyou we will be back again next time.

The hotel very kindly gave my Granny an upgrade to a double room because our booked single room was upstairs. The rooms were clean and comfortable, if a little dated. The manager/proprietor was very accommodating and friendly.

How is this a hotel??? It doesn’t even say hotel outside. This is a b&b with no staff on site, no reception -at least until they meet you at the property 10 mins after you’ve phoned!Lovely guy checked me in but I later found the tv signal was naff (yes I retuned) and there’s was no Wi-fi at the back where I’d been dumped at the end of a Warren. Constant noise all night til 3am, then woken at 7 by someone going round all rooms it seems and tapping doors. I put earplugs in and took a sleeping tablet to just get the night over with. No parking on site. I got lucky down the road but parking is so bad someone literally waited for me to leave in the morning. My bad I cheap’d out. Never again. I have paid the exact same money before though for a way better stay elsewhere.

On arrival we were made to feel very welcome , we were given detailed information regarding the procedures in place to keep both ourselves and other guests safe . There were sanitisers around and plenty of notices. Our room was clean and fresh and the towels and bedding. We only had to text or phone for any top ups to milk tea and coffee. Due to the size of the dining area we were not able to have breakfast on site , however we were provided each morning with an alternative pack of sandwiches and drink ,all delivered to our room. We had a very comfortable stay and nothing was too much trouble for the owner to make our stay pleasant.

A small hotel, sited in the very pleasant Spencer Square, with on street parking. Not luxurious but certainly comfortable and very clean. Plenty of hot water for the shower. We enjoyed an excellent breakfast. The management kindly agreed to our using the room until midday instead of 10am because we were attending a family funeral in the afternoon. This saved us from roaming the streets and the promenade in our black suits on the hottest day of the year so far so it was much appreciated. Thank you.
