| Our hotel is ideally situated for relaxing strolls along the Folkestone Leas with its sea views. On weekends in the summer bands perform at the Leas Bandstand just a few steps from the hotel. Further down the Leas is the Leas Cliff Hall featuring a full schedule of live concerts and touring shows. Also within walking distance are Folkestone's beach and harbour, the Rotunda Amusement Park, the Lower Leas Coastal Park, the Metropole Arts Centre, and the historic Parish Church on the Bayle.
