Albion House Shortlist*
Ramsgate, Kent
Good Hotel Guide Review
This chic and stylish small hotel in a restored Regency building has an enviable clifftop position overlooking the beach and Royal Harbour. Owners Ben and Emma Irvine have retained the building’s grandeur – in the past it was favoured by politicians, actors, even Princess Victoria – in the high ceilings, ornate cornices and carved fireplaces but added modern elegance. Public spaces have mirrors, plants, walls painted deep heritage shades; a lounge is a ‘welcoming’ spot. Most of the light-filled bedrooms, some high up in the eaves, have views towards the water. A busy road at the front may affect light sleepers. In the restaurant, seasonal produce, including locally caught seafood, dictates the menu.
