Advertised as Hotel, but disappointed! I felt it is a Pub offering B&B - there was only a very tiny corner near the reception area given for anyone wanting to sit quietly etc. All was good with regards staff and food!

Number one choice for the area!

Regularly stay here due to my head office being nearby, super clean rooms, really nice home cooked food with generous portions, amazing cooked breakfast, staff are all down to earth and happy to cater for any needs, my number one choice to stay when I'm down in the area and they are always competitively priced in the area especially with breakfast being included.

Everything was fine. Sure, there could have been less limescale in the loo, and a lick of paint wouldn't go amiss, but the linen was spotless, the hospitality impeccable and the breakfast was the best I've eaten in over a decade! Plus, the beer was Shepherds Neame and was kept and poured beautifully. Definitely value for money! .
