“The Burlington Hotel impresses as a Victorian-era property that has tastefully evolved, managing to retain its character through considered renovations, which I find particularly commendable. Its location near both the town center and coastline makes it convenient, and the hotel distinguishes itself with its dedication to weddings and pet-friendly services; the Bay Tree Bar & Grill, with its focus on local Kent produce, is a highlight.”
