Rose And Crown Hotel, Tonbridge

I dedecided to stay overnight at The Rose & Crown. I had the most marvelous comfortable overnight at this hotel.

Booked last minute, everything was good. Excellent Breakfast. When in the area we wouldn't hesitate to book there again.

I found the hotel excellent value for money. The staff were all very helpful, polite and professional. I stayed for one night for business and I didn’t want to pay for something too expensive. The room was clean and tidy and the bed and bedding was very comfortable. The breakfast was included in the price with lots of choice. I would definitely stay again.

Great location. Awesome staff and breakfast is top notch. Some have had a whinge about the rooms but my room was perfectly fine. It’s an older characterful hotel with heaps of history and personality and in my opinion much better than a soul less Premier Inn or equivalent. Best of all. The wireless was flawless so I was able to get heaps of work done during my stay. Fugles brewery is just a few doors down. And there’s heaps of coffee shops and eateries a quick walk away. Good choice. Recommended!

Good value hotel. The staff were very helpful to accommodate our requirements, such as early parking and a late check in. Location was great, walking distance to the train station. Overall we had a successful stay.

Appreciate the hotel staffs friendly service, restaurant breakfast good. room size area big enough. very distinctive building. near high street. totally great

The Rose and Crown is an old school hotel in a fantastic location right in the middle of the main street in Tonbridge. Everything is literally at your doorstep, with the advantage of ample car parking accessed from Church Road to the rear. The young man on reception was very welcoming, professional, and helpful when we checked in and on our departure. We stayed in one of the superior rooms which was clean and had an ample supply freshly laundered towels. The hotel has stood where it is fir many years and like all old buildings will benefit from some refurbishments. The hotel changed hands in the recent past so the changes the new owners are making will take a little time. I look forward to future visits and seeing how the hotel is modernised, without I hope, losing any of its old fashioned charm. Then we can upgrade the review to five stars for the rooms as well as the service and location.

First the good- Siobhan, what a ray of sunlight! Siobhan works in the restaurant and bar but can’t do enough for the customers. She was so helpful and welcoming it’s hard to complain about the service (even though she got our meal order wrong). Location, on the high street yards from the castle with free on site parking. The price, booked directly and that reduced the price from my normal booking site by £21 and included breakfast. The bad things. Look it’s a very old building so the stairs, floors and walls are uneaten the rooms are dated but modern rooms wouldn’t suit the building however it feels a bit 70’s. That said the dining chairs need re-upholstering. We stayed in room 1 which is in the main building but faces the road and even the secondary glazing didn’t quieten the resident pigeons. It’s a good job I pack ear plugs. But the room has all the modern amenities and an abundance of hot beverage choices. The worst thing was the shower the temperature was uncontrollable and the shower head was well past descaling and needs replacing. We only stayed one night and the manager was chatty and friendly so I’m sure if we had pointed it out he would have sorted it out. All in all for the price I would return knowing what to expect
