The Best of Both Worlds: Why The Beetroot is Margate’s Perfect Beachfront Hotel Alternative
When planning a coastal getaway, the phrase “beachfront hotel” immediately conjures images of rolling waves and proximity to the sand. While a direct, sea-facing room has its appeal, savvy travellers know that the best seaside experience often comes from a strategic location that blends beach access with quiet centrality. Enter The Beetroot, a boutique guest house offering all the convenience of a Margate beachfront hotel, but with added peace, ethical luxury, and direct access to the vibrant Old Town.
Location, Location, Location: A Stone’s Throw from the Sea
For many, the appeal of a Margate beachfront hotel is the instant access to the shore. At The Beetroot, you get exactly that, but without the persistent noise and activity that often comes with being directly on the main promenade.
How close are we? Incredibly close! We are located in the heart of Old Town Margate, and are just 100 metres from Margate’s spectacular Main Sands. This means a less-than-two-minute stroll takes you from your peaceful room to the golden sand and refreshing sea air.
We are perfectly positioned in a sweet spot: between the beach, the historic Old Town, and the bustling High Street. A couple of minutes’ walk will get you to any of them. This unique centrality allows you to easily enjoy a day of sunbathing and swimming before seamlessly transitioning into an evening of exploring independent shops and dining in top-rated local restaurants. We offer the quiet oasis that an over-exposed Margate beachfront hotel simply cannot.
Ethical Luxury: More Than Just a Place to Sleep
The Beetroot distinguishes itself by offering a luxury stay that is fully committed to ethical principles. We believe that true relaxation comes from knowing your comfort hasn’t come at a cost to the planet or animals.
We are proud to be a fully vegan hotel. This commitment means:
-
Animal-Product Free: No animal products are used in any of our room furnishings, ensuring an ethical environment from the curtains to the carpet.
-
Conscious Care: Our luxury toiletries and cleaning products are 100% vegan.
-
Superior Sleep: After a busy day exploring Margate, you’ll be delighted to sink into our award-winning mattresses, topping off your perfect, guilt-free stay.
Each of our rooms is individually designed, creating a boutique feel that is miles away from the standardised rooms of a typical Margate beachfront hotel. Rooms include all the modern necessities: a luxury en-suite shower room, tea and coffee facilities, TV, and free Wi-Fi.
Finding Your Central Oasis
While our hotel is centrally located, finding us is straightforward. If you’re arriving by train, we’re a pleasant ten-minute walk along the seafront before you turn right into Market Street.
Our Directions:
We are situated at Sydney Place, Market Street Car Park, Margate CT91EU. Market Street is a one-way street accessed from the beach end. We’re tucked away in the carpark; turn immediately right once you see Mr Simms sweet shop, about 100m down. This slightly tucked-away location is the key to our perfect mix of central convenience and quiet seclusion.
Seamless Stays and Exclusive Savings
We aim to make your coastal break as effortless as possible. Our standard check-in time is 15:00, and check-out is a generous 12:00, giving you plenty of time to enjoy your last morning. We also offer a Bag Drop By Arrangement service for early arrivals.
To thank our guests for booking directly and supporting our independent business, we offer an exclusive discount: book directly through our website and get 10% off your stay! It’s the easiest way to secure the best value for your Margate escape.
For a luxury, ethical, and perfectly positioned alternative to a traditional Margate beachfront hotel, The Beetroot offers an experience that is truly second to none.
