Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We had issues with our room initially because there was a horrible smell. They investigated and could not immediately resolve it so upgraded our room without us even knowing!
The staff were really lovely and approachable. Great stay.
Very hospitable and helpful staff. The bed was excellent 👌. While parking is off site easy to access and payment arranged thru the hotel at £10 per 24hrs
the water in the bathroom sink not only seemed to also fill with a previous guests hair shavings.
The bed was propped up on blocks and the pillows rather unsavoury under the cases.
The staff were very engaging and helpful but the hotel is more than needing some love and attention.

Nice comfy room, had to pay for breakfast but it was very nice
Fantastic location for the event i was attending. Close to local shops, pubs & cafes. The hotel staff were polite, very warm, welcoming, accommodating & friendly - a totally lovely experience. Would highly recommend to family & friends. The hotel can only accommodate able body individuals..... no wheelchair access and no facilities Re: lifts
The stairs are narrow in places
An absolute gem of a hotel, super friendly staff, beautifully furnished, comfortable beds, excellent food. We had a lovely overnight stay and appreciated the closeness to parking and the lovely Pantiles area.
I had such a wonderful stay! Beautiful hotel - room was excellent, staff were incredibly friendly and my room was excellent. Will absolutely stay here again when I’m in Tunbridge Wells!

Parking great short stroll to hotel I minute
Staff polite and friendly. Room disappointing as very dark. Bathroom tiny and felt claustrophobic. No views just scruffy iron staircase outside. Ceiling needs looking at. Cracks with flaky paint work. Room needs money spent on it to brighten it up and modernise it. It is perfectly positioned to enjoy the Pantiles and get around RTW. Main area bar and outside area perfect We had great time
Not one to moan normally but……
Had the suite room
Room was not cleaned when we arrived.
When back to the room later on and only the bed had been made.
Dirty cups and rubbish on the floor.
Complained and just got a sorry.
Would not stay again.
