This property has undergone major work in late 2007, transforming it into a modern and luxurious accommodation with 19 state-of-the-art conference rooms and 179 sumptuous bedrooms. Guests are welcomed in a lobby with 24-hour reception and check-out service. The hotel provides currency exchange facilities, a cloakroom, lift access and room and laundry services. All conference rooms feature air conditioning, up-to-the-minute AV facilities, WLAN Internet access and the services of a dedicated Events Team to ensure the smooth running of all events. For dining and drinks, guests can enjoy the fantastic brasserie-style restaurant Horizon, as well as Costa Coffee and the more informal sports bar with pool table, Quench. There is free car-parking available for 400 cars.

The hotel is located close to Junction 9 of the M20 motorway, just minutes from the Eurostar terminal and only 36 minutes from London by high-speed train. By car: From the north, take the M25 clockwise to Junction 3. Then take the M20 towards Dover. Leave the M20 at Junction 9, taking the third exit signposted Ashford/Canterbury - do not follow the signs for International Station. At the first roundabout, turn left - the hotel is 200 yards along on the left-hand side.
