Noisy
Parking is a nightmare to find. The noisiest hotel I've stayed in. Delivery early doors. Staff good, food average, not the worst
A nice hotel in a historic building. Free parking behind the hotel with easy access into the rear of the building.

Great 1 night trip.
Great short overnight stay for work. Lovely food, lovely breakfast plus residents get a 20% discount on food and drinks. Excellent value. Free parking, hotel in middle of the town so great access. Look forwards to next stay!

I was initially concerned about the noise and people as it is a pub and I was staying with my teenage daughter. But there was no need to worry it was quiet clean, food was lovely staff friendly. Town center. Would stay there again.

No real problems but the drains need attention as the bathroom smelt bad. Perfectly clean, usable and drained well but toilet odours came back

very disappointed
We chose this Hotel because of it was supposedly close to Brands Hatch race circuit ( 6.7 miles ) it is actually nearer to 15 miles. we found it very difficult to locate and no hot food was available for evening meal or breakfast.
All that was was missing was Basil Faulty.

Nice place to stay, staff were very helpful.
The room was nice and clean but the bathroom could do with a better clean, dust in the corners but we could live with that.

Lovely place. Just the hallway leading onto our room smelt of stale smoke. I'm sure there's probably regular workmen who use the rooms as digs and probably do smoke in their rooms, no smell once in our own room. Lovely place and would stay again
