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!

Broken bed base stuffed with pillows very uncomfortable…. Couldn’t sleep.. I was in a hole all night… Broken shower handle and found it hard to wash. Through medical reasons I cannot take a bath only shower. So again not deluxe as the room name stated Toilet roll holder needs fixing.. breakfast was ok Shame because the building is amazing with all the history . We will come back but would choose another spec room . Went to bar in the evening No coke,tonic or lemonade for mixers ??? We love Tonbridge ad look to visit often as we have family here hope next time changes have been made as it would be a shame to see a beautiful place go completely happy Christmas to all your staff .

Been staying in this hotel many times over the years and it is sadly going down hill. Whilst the main hotel is older and quirky the annex part in the car park really needs an overhaul. Lots of little things like blown bulbs, bathroom heating not working, missing sink plugs, no plastic tumblers in the rooms anymore, badly stocked bar..I could go on. The whole place is just looking very tired and all the little comforts in the rooms are no longer provided.

The staff were helpful but the room and amenities were dire. To enter the room, which was in the annexe, you had to walk through hundreds of cigarette ends and a bin which had not been emptied for ages, based on mess around it. To say the room was tired is an understatement. The carpet was threadbare and torn, the net curtains ripped and the bed ……. How do I describe that? Uncomfortable is being kind. I have never been on anything like it. Worn out, lumpy and the edges unyielding. Two single mattresses pushed together with a hard ridge at the join. No mattress cover either. On top of that the room is infested with clothes moths. The bathroom tiles had filthy grout and the shower head should be thrown out. Water taps needed persuading ……. How this hotel has a three star rating is beyond me. I am sorry but the staff are the only thing preventing one star.

The cleanliness and condition of my room were unacceptable. There were cobwebs in the bedroom, and the wallpaper was ripped in several areas. The bathroom was also in very poor condition, not clean with lots of visible mould, a dirty shower curtain, and multiple black stains across different areas of the ceiling. In addition, the carpet outside the bathroom was damp throughout my stay, and the room had not been properly cleaned, with sticky stains left on the furniture. The bar service was also far below standard. The drink selection was extremely limited, with basic options such as lemonade and orange juice unavailable. I also found that the photos on your website are misleading and do not reflect the current state of the rooms, particularly the bathrooms, which are in significantly worse condition than depicted. These should be updated to accurately show the actual quality.

My stay at the hotel above the Rose and Crown was genuinely awful from start to finish. When I checked in, the room wasn’t just dirty, it was unhygienic to a shocking level. There were used condoms in the toilet, human faeces left in the toilet, and old pizza boxes scattered around. I asked to be moved, hoping it was a one-off, but the second room wasn’t any better. Again, there was human faeces in the toilet, showing the rooms hadn’t been cleaned at all. To make things worse, when I ordered a drink downstairs, the pint I was served had visible floaters in it. When I asked for a refund, I was told they were unable to provide one, despite the drink clearly being undrinkable. The entire place felt like a genuine health hazard. Because of the appalling conditions, we checked out just a few hours later. The whole experience was completely unacceptable and extremely unpleasant. I have photos but they aren’t “family friendly” to share on this platform AVOID!!!

The Rose & Crown was THE place to stay in Tonbridge 40 years ago. Now, it is neglected, there is no restaurant, the bar which used to be packed was empty. What a shame. In the room, the curtain was hanging off the rail, there were no tooth mugs and the door closer flapped in the breeze. I had my wedding reception there in 1982. Then, it was good.

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.

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.
