“Fort Road Hotel impresses with its curated style, from the thoughtfully designed rooms to the Tracey Emin art in the basement bar; the rooftop terrace seals the deal with its panoramic views. I found the staff genuinely welcoming and the location ideal, nestled near the Turner Contemporary and Margate's vibrant Old Town. It's the kind of place where attention to detail elevates the entire experience.”
