This place is fantastic! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is a wonderful bonus. The service exceeded my expectations—highly recommended!
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 room was clean. The bed was clean and very comfortable. Slept like a log. Staff were very courteous and helpful. The food was very good. Poached eggs done to perfection. Will definitely stay there again.

Breakfast was okay. Staff were helpful and friendly. The room was clean. The hotel is dated and is overdue for renovation.
Really nice old building with spacious rooms, well situated in the town and the breakfast had a good selection

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
Very central to the high street shops and the castle.
Suggest they put toilet brush in bathrooms as toilet was not clean and there was nothing for one to clean it ones self.
Pleased I ignored other reviews... Yes, the floors creak and slope but that is the character of an old building. Room was very clean and well presented. Plenty of free parking (register in reception). Some noise from street, but didn't disturb as am a heavy sleeper - if a light sleeper ask for a room not overlooking the city.

Convenient location with parking in heart of Tonbridge.
Had a lovely stay hotel is in prime location being on the high street the building has lots of character the breakfast was lovely and the staff friendly.
Friendly staff, great location and within easy walking distance to the train station, rooms are a little tired but comfortable. On site parking available foc but quite tight in places.
I stayed here whilst attending an event at TOFS Very convenient for Tonbridge and railway station. Always staff available to help. Comfortable rooms, i would stay again if visiting Tonbridge.
Cleanliness...there were cobwebs on the ceiling right above my bed, grime around taps in bathroom, no toilet paper, or bin liner in bathroom. We would have had a nice view from our window if the grass had been cut...it was so overgrown & uncut that it actually really let the place down 👎👎👎 windows could have been doing with a clean 👎
Im disabled & on the first night l had nowhere to park as a works van was parked in the disabled bay, my 2 sisters & niece had to get out of my car & guide me into a very tight space (the only space left in the car park). I did get toilet paper once l asked at reception 👍
Our beds were very comfortable, we where in the ground floor rooms through the car park. It was quite...a consideration to maybe take on board is at night when going into the room, is very dark as the lighting was past our room so trying to find the lock on the door was difficult.
We did enjoy our stay & would stay again.

I stayed for a week and the best part of the stay was the bed. It was super comfy and got a great nights sleep each night. The bathroom was ok, but the shower was small, so a bit of a squeeze. There was also a step in my room, from the bathroom to the bed part which took a bit of getting use to. The staff I met were very friendly and helpful.
Very outdated, room was dusty, stuffy and stunk of cigarettes. Bed was so uncomfortable, didn’t sleep at all. Mattress so soft might as well be non existent. Just overall poor.
Positives: very central, car park included.

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.
