Really enjoyed our stay at the Duke of Cumberland! We’ve been coming to Whitstable for years and are pleased to see that this great pub has finally been given some TLC. Whitstable was definitely in need of a nice boutique hotel in the centre of town!

8/10 Good

Great stay at the Duke of Cumberland . Great location in central Whitstable but this did mean we heard road noise in the early mornings. if we were to stay again we would ask for a quieter room. However, the room itself Emmeline, couldn’t have been nicer, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. A small fridge in the room would have made it perfect. Staff was really friendly. Breakfast excellent with plenty of choice. No parking at the hotel itself but plenty of car parks nearby - hotel gives you details of these. If you’re prepared to walk a bit further you can park cheaply at the co op at the bottom of the high street using the parking app.
