Albion House Shortlist*
Ramsgate, Kent
Good Hotel Guide Review
Breathe the sea air at Ben and Emma Irvine’s beautifully restored hotel atop Ramsgate’s East Cliff. Enwrapped by a wrought iron balcony, the Regency building overlooks the beach and Royal Harbour. In the past, it has hosted politicians, actors, even Princess Victoria while recuperating from an illness. Inside, a sense of grandeur remains, with high ceilings, ornate cornices, carved fireplaces. Pale fabrics, pendant lighting, mirrors and plants contrast with deep heritage-coloured walls. Bedrooms, some high up in the eaves, one on the lower ground floor, are softly decorated and have modern bathrooms. (A busy road at the front may affect light sleepers.) Brunch, lunch and dinner are served in Townley’s restaurant, where sea views are assured.
