Built in 1700 and overlooking the pier, this family-run hotel is close to the town center, the bus and train stations, golf, fishing, and is 8 miles from Dover ferry port. Waterfront Hotel is a cozy, period hotel with helpful, friendly staff willing to help. Single, double, triple and family rooms are available, some of which are en suite. The property has a long history as a hotel. It is thought that Admiral Nelsons crew frequented the hotel during the 1700's. Located directly in front of Deal's pier, the hotel has panoramic views out to the Goodwin Sands and the coast of France. Guests are invited to relax with a coffee in the lounge and appreciate the view. The lounge Bar and some of the rooms have wonderful sea views. The hotel does not have a elevator.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

    Took the budget room which meant top floor (no elevator) and shared bathroom..but the location right across from beach and pier more than made up for it. 2 blocks to bus and main shopping street.. many restaurants and pubs close by. Breakfast...

    The location couldn’t have been better ; the name, Waterfront, was barring the traffic circle, almost literal.

    We were three adults, in our room, which was perfectly spacious enough for the three of us, with a perfect view of the sea and the pier and only a short walk to the town centre. It was a sad occasion for us but the staff couldn't have been more...
