Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomI can’t think of anything!
We loved our stay at doghouse Margate. The whole property was immaculate and very homely. From the very start of our stay we were really well looked after. The dog biscuits left with our dogs name on them was such a lovely, personalised touch and so very thoughtful. The honesty bar was great and overall just had everything we needed and more. Our breakfast each morning was really tasty and to a high standard. It’s perfect walking location to the beach too.

United KingdomMy daughter and I stayed for one night with our dog. We found The Doghouse to be clean and comfortable and Mel was a good host. Breakfast was of a very high quality, excellent and delivered to our room. Even our dog Betsy had her own breakfast, she was also left homemade doggy biscuits. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking to stay in Margate, dog or no dog

United KingdomCar parking was a little hit and miss but in reality it was fine both times we tried to park.
Every possible need was catered for. They made a real fuss of our dog - and that was a very nice touch. The honest box for soft drinks is a great idea. And fresh milk available to make tea was much appreciated.

United KingdomThe road into Old Margate (Northdown Road) was dirty and noisy, but the alternative route on the coast road was much better and a nice flat walk into town taking 20 minutes.
The hotel was clean and comfortable on a quiet street. The breakfast was served in the room and was very good. The immediate area is rather run down, but Old Margate was very interesting with nice restaurants and bars and well worth a visit.

United KingdomParking in Norfolk Rd, although free of charge, can be hard to find. On the other hand the bus stop is only just round the corner so once we got parked we left the car where it was.
Older style house, beautifully renovated and decorated. Some luxury touches - eg dressing gowns and slippers provided. Coffee machine in the room. All the breakfasts were lovely and the Full English was one of the best we’ve ever tasted., everything cooked to absolute perfection. Mel and Fe both lovely welcoming hosts who really wanted you to have a happy stay.

United KingdomIt was a bit of a step down to the bathroom was my only concern but I managed not to trip as I'm very clumsy!! Also could maybe do with a strip on the door so the light from the hallway doesn't come through.
Great room, good location as we walked to Margate and also to Botany Bay. Lovely little dog treats provided on arrival which was super cute & well received :) Breakfast was really nice and the dog was happy with his selection. Really comfy bed and the room was a good size. Lovely bathroom, really nice decor.

My boyfriend and I had a lovely stay at Doghouse Margate. I was blown away by the hospitality of Mel and Fe - they lent us beach chairs and a beach umbrella for the day and were available whenever we had a question. The room and en suite bathroom were spotless and the BREAKFAST - omg so tasty!! 😋 I could not have imagined a more perfect weekend getaway. Thank you for everything, Mel and Fe! We will be back soon.
