Great location, classic building.

This is an old building so, if you like creaking floorboards and a warren of rooms, it is your sort of place. Conveniently located at the top of Tonbridge High Street, with car parking, it provides easy access to the surrounding area. Breakfast was excellent.

Pleasant Stay

Pleasantly surprised after reading negative reviews. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was warm, clean and comfortable. Yes, the floors creaked but its what you would expect in an old building such as this. Plenty of hot water for bath/shower. However shower lost pressure due to lots of people showering at the same time each morning. There was a good choice for breakfast and cooked to order. Excellent location in the centre of town.

This is not a best western hotel

We booked last minute under the impression that this hotel was part of the best western group According to Various google searches But became very obvious upon arrival that the standards and decor were not what you would expect from a best western hotel Carpets were filthy, dusty surfaces , no plug which didn't matter as the sink took ages to drain away Mattress was uncomfortable and noisy due to springs Pre booked so felt we wouldn't get our money back if cancelled after checkin Very disappointing as the photos do not give a true impression of what was probably a nice coachhouse several years ago

Friendly staff, spotlessly clean just a bit tired

Staff were really nice and attentive, though surprised we only had one bath towel for two guests, hotel is just a bit tired and in need of some TLC though the rooms are spotlessly clean. Location is wonderful, Tonbridge is a lovely town

Few problems

Booked us into room 14 which was cold. Spoke to reception who informed me that there was no heating in this room. Told them that we could not shower bathroom freezing and to sleep would be too cold. Very good and we got transferred to room 109 which was lovely but found out cold tap Didn’t work. No a hassle for us and room wax warm. Breakfast great and staff are friendly and helpful

Old building so expected some issues but shower was not good, I’m not tall and had to bob down to get showered and the temperature was impossible to get reasonable! Also not doing evening meals even tho the welcome pack in your room gives meal times for evening meals!? Room on Road front so noisy!

Good value and situation.

Very good value in a good position near the castle. In the process of being upgraded I think, the restaurant only offered breakfast, which was good. There is a bar. Staff were very polite and helpful.

Elderly solo traveller

An overnight stay en route to the West Country. All members of staff were very helpful and Receptionist was welcoming and informative. The hotel and my room was comfortable, well appointed and clean. Being situated in the high street, the hotel is convenient for access to Tonbridge town centre, the park and castle and an ideal centre for exploring the local countryside. Highly recommended.

A stay with a step back in time.

The hotel itself has a real charm and character due to still having the oak panelling from its days as a coaching inn.Our room was excellent with a comfortable four poster bed.The staff were friendly and there is a good car park on site.The only negative was the shower not working so we had to take baths which wasnt very comfortable.

Good location, but could use a facelift.

Wanted to stay in the historic building, but ended up in the annex behind, which had little personality. Hallways and rugs could use an upgrade and compared to the cheerful main building, our building was a let down. Loved location in center of town across from castle.

Victoria Suite, with 4 poster bed review

We stayed in Victoria Suite, lovely bed, very comfortable. Bathroom nice and clean, but no water pressure in shower, unless on very hot. Carpet to bedroom needs proper clean, not just vacum. Really is a lovely room, would stay again, would give 5 stars, if not for minor issues noted above.
