Perfect relaxing break with excellent spa/ staff.

The staff are exceptionally nice and always cheerful. The spa is extremely good with a quiet swimming area, jacuzzi, steam and sauna, as well as an excellent massage and facial. It was perfect for a relaxing weekend and very good value.

Expected a lot more from a spa hotel, rooms were clean. Unfortunately very dated and lacking that feeling of you’ve paid a bit more to stay somewhere nice, I feel it could do with some updating. I moved rooms from a superior to an executive as superior had a lot after boiler cupboard next door and I couldn’t sleep at all with the noise. There was not much difference in the standard of the rooms, I didn’t feel I would pay extra to book the executive and feel that the standard rooms may be as good as any others but I didn’t look in one. The bedding was not nice hotel quality white cotton sheets, it was dated and matching the headboard! I didn’t use spa facilities as was down visiting family so just using for sleeping and breakfast. If you like a spa then it’s worth staying as the use is included in the accommodation price,

Parking good, staff good, food good, although did try and charge an extra £10 on our mains, fortunately we noticed it!!! The bath plug wouldn’t work - thanks to the lady who tried to help. Pillows are tired - need replacing - a struggle to get to room because of stairs - fortunately I’m fit. Constant drone from somewhere which is annoying! Special thanks for the latte ready for our early start - much appreciated

Lovely hotel, not huge so personal feel. Absolutely spotless. Staff friendly and lovely pool. Very relaxing break. Worth noting there is no lift so had to use stairs. Not an issue for us but worth knowing if you do struggle with stairs so you can ask for an accessible room. Will stay there again.

Our stay at Hempstead House in Sittingbourne completely excelled against expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make everything absolutely perfect. Every single member of the team was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly – you could really feel that they cared about making guests comfortable. The rooms were spotlessly clean and beautifully kept, which made for a really relaxing stay. The spa was the highlight for us – we absolutely loved it. The jacuzzi and hydro pool were wonderfully warm, and even the small outdoor pool had lovely hot water, which was such a treat. It was the perfect place to unwind. The food at the hotel was also amazing – beautifully presented, full of flavour, and excellent service to match. Overall, Hempstead House is a gem. The staff, the spa, the food, and the atmosphere all came together to give us a stay we won’t forget. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, friendly, and luxury experience in Kent.
