lovely style older property in the high street Great location and has parking at the back Beds were slightly hard and the shower was in the bath We didn’t use it as the ceilings were very low and felt too small for us both Im only 5”4 but could have touched the ceiling if i was having a shower so a bit too confined for us Im guessing all the rooms are different so if we stayed here again we would ask for a free standing shower if possible and also if there was any softer mattresses Staff were very friendly and check in was quick Breakfast was very good and i would definitely stay here again

Excellent Hotel!

Great hotel with a great pub, ideal location for a trip to chapel down winery. Great little town too, helpful staff when an extension was required for one of the rooms. Breakfast was delicious just a little confusing with regards to prices and choices. Overall great stay would recommend and stay again.

A great location in the centre of Tenterden. Parking at the rear of the property included in the cost of you’re a resident in the hotel. We had a very pleasant airy and comfortable room. Certainly worth another visit in the future.

Excellent stay.

Beautiful building, well decorated room and excellent breakfast. Staff were very friendly and professional, welcoming at all times and the room, bar and restaurant are beautifully decorated. Room amenities were excellent, just a shame we didn’t discover the brownies until it was too late!

We had a pleasant stay. The staff were very friendly and the bar and restaurant area very nice. Our room was tired and needed a good lick of paint. The room was hot and stuffy and the sash window was broken and wouldn’t stay open which was annoying. We would go here again to use the bar and restaurant but would not stay overnight as there are better accommodations nearby.

Loved the place but unfortunately there were huge issues with our reservation where one of rooms was given away by mistake and we offered a downgraded room. Although when we asked for refund we were going to get it, it was a disappointing experience and we booked certain rooms for a reason. In the end we were given another room same quality to the detriment of someone else checking in later who would have experienced the same issue as we took their room. Really loved the room though and breakfast was great.

Cool Runnings

Great location in the heart of Tenterden with ample parking. The check in was fast and welcoming. The room was spacious, nicely decorated and had a very comfortable bed. The hotel is in a quiet area so I slept very well. I had the eggy soldiers for breakfast which was good and very nostalgic! My only minor gripe was the time the sink hot water took to arrive....in fact it never got hot even after running the water for 15 minutes. I understand it's an old building but, continuing like this, I can see a hose pipe ban in Kent this summer!!

We booked this hotel for a special occasion. The room was gorgeous and clean and comfortable and worth the money we paid for it, albeit very cold and drafty through the night, with the windows rattling in the wind, which we could forgive, with it beaing an old property. We had informed the hotel of the reason for our visit, however no acknowledgement of this was made. Previously when we've stayed in other places, they at least said happy birthday when we arrived. The food was absolutely stunning, but there was a very long wait for it, which seemed unnecessary as it did not seem overly full. The waiting staff all seemed very apologetic when we mentioned this and were lovely throughout our stay.
