Excellent! Ample free parking, friendly staff, nice breakfast with options. Stayed in the four poster room which was brilliant! Right in the middle of town, walking distance from castle (a minute or two) and train station (10 minutes). Would stay there again!

The whole place needs a refurb. My bedroom could have done with a clean and the toilet actually needed flushing before I could use it. The stairs and corridors wer dusty in corners and one corridor had a peculiar smell. I know it was an old building but I’m sure even old buildings could have lifts installed and maybe ramps and here one or two steps are. Not good value for money and the breakfast certainly wasn’t. The restaurant and bar are were clean and smart and the staff were pleasant and helpful.

Bed comfy. Room fairly clean but staining on bottom of shower curtain and pencil left on floor in bathroom. No hand soap or shower gel in room. Cold tap no proessure. Shower cold. Breakfast nice, but very small portions on the full english. Rotating toaster not working proeprly as bread gets stuck at back. This was a Best Western Hotel, and was AA 3 Stars. Not sure it would get 3 stars now. Overall, it served it purpose. It had a bar, but didn't serve food in the evening.

Plus side: Location is great being opposite the castle and 1 minute from pubs and restaurants, beautiful exterior, dedicated parking at the rear which is great for a town centre, staff are pleasant. Minus side, hotel is rather shabby away from the foyer, a warren of stairs and corridors with no lift, tired decor, the suite we were in had no tv in bedroom only in the lounge area, a hole in the carpet, hot water didn't come through for several minutes so wasn't sure it was working, a hair in the soap dish, bedside light failed, headboard coming away from the wall. To be fair the price i got online for the suite of £65 was not unreasonable these days for the quality but any more would have been too rich and the photos online of the room did not translate to the reality. If you want a basic no frills rather run down Tonbridge town centre bedroom for a cheaper price then this is it.
