Margate Boutique Hotel: Your Next Seaside Stay at The Beetroot

Margate has undergone a remarkable transformation over the last decade. Once a traditional seaside resort, it has blossomed into a vibrant hub of contemporary art, vintage fashion, and an enviable culinary scene. If you are looking for a coastal escape that combines cultural richness with conscious living, choosing the right Margate boutique hotel is the first step toward an unforgettable trip.

At The Beetroot, we offer a unique sanctuary in the heart of the Old Town. As the UK’s first fully vegan hotel, we provide more than just a place to sleep; we offer a refined, ethical experience just moments from the Kent coastline.


Why Choose a Boutique Stay in Margate?

When visiting the Isle of Thanet, the accommodation you choose sets the tone for your entire holiday. While larger chains offer predictability, a boutique guest hotel offers character, intimacy, and a deep connection to the local area.

Located in the historic Old Town, The Beetroot sits at the crossroads of everything that makes this town special. We are positioned perfectly between the golden sands of the Main Beach, the independent boutiques of the High Street, and the creative pulse of the Old Town’s winding lanes. When you stay at our Margate boutique hotel, you aren’t just visiting the town—you’re living in the very heart of it.


Conscious Comfort: The UK’s First Vegan Hotel

The Beetroot made headlines in 2018 when we opened as the UK’s first entirely vegan hotel. For us, veganism isn’t just about what’s on the plate; it’s a philosophy that extends to every corner of our guest experience.

What Makes Our Rooms Different?

We believe that luxury shouldn’t come at the expense of animals or the planet. Our rooms are meticulously designed to be 100% free from animal products. This means:

  • Cruelty-Free Furnishings: No wool, silk, feather down, or leather.

  • Ethical Toiletries: High-end, vegan-friendly soaps and shampoos that are kind to your skin and the environment.

  • Eco-Conscious Cleaning: We use only vegan and non-toxic cleaning products to ensure a fresh, chemical-free atmosphere.

Beyond the ethical credentials, comfort remains our priority. Each of our individually designed rooms features award-winning mattresses, luxury en-suite shower rooms, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Whether you’re here for a creative retreat or a romantic weekend, our rooms offer the perfect “quiet yet central” balance.


An Oasis in the Old Town

One of the hidden gems of our Margate boutique hotel is our courtyard garden. In a town as bustling as Margate, having a private outdoor space is a true luxury. All of our rooms face this “courtyard oasis,” providing a peaceful backdrop to your stay.

Guests are invited to use the garden to relax with a book, enjoy a morning coffee, or simply soak up the sea air. It is a tranquil world away from the excitement of the nearby Dreamland amusement park and the Turner Contemporary gallery.


Exploring Margate from Your Doorstep

Location is everything. When you stay at The Beetroot, you are never more than a couple of minutes’ walk from the best the town has to offer.

1. The Main Sands (100m away)

Just a stone’s throw from our front door, the Margate Main Sands offer vast stretches of golden beach and tidal pools. It’s the perfect spot for a morning sea dip or a sunset stroll.

2. The Old Town & High Street

Step out of the hotel and you are immediately immersed in a world of independent galleries, antique treasure troves, and vintage clothing stores. Margate’s “Old Town” charm is world-famous, and we are right in the middle of it.

3. Culture and Heritage

From the iconic Turner Contemporary art gallery to the mysterious Shell Grotto, the town’s cultural landmarks are all within easy walking distance.
