About The Marquis at Alkham
The Marquis at Alkham occupies a converted country building in the Alkham Valley, a few minutes' drive inland from Dover, and has built its reputation primarily on its restaurant, which draws diners from well beyond the immediate area. The handful of bedrooms upstairs are contemporary and understated, with an emphasis on comfort rather than period detail.
Large windows throughout make the most of the surrounding countryside, and the valley setting gives a genuine sense of rural quiet despite the short drive back into Dover or Folkestone. Rooms are individually decorated in a calm, neutral palette, with modern bathrooms and a few benefiting from valley views.
Its position makes it a good choice for visitors who want to combine sightseeing at Dover Castle and the White Cliffs with a quieter, food-focused evening away from the town itself, and the restaurant's reputation means booking dinner ahead is worthwhile even for house guests.
