    I booked the executive suit and would have expected nicer toiletries or something abit extra, I also mentioned it was our year anniversary on the booking which was acknowledged but no mention, no note or little surprise was awaiting for us which was very disappointing

    Clean room and friendly staff and the food was great

    The staff were apologetic - not their fault and we have used this hotel before so a bit worried.

    We had a very very bad experience on 13 April where neither of us slept at all. 'Travellers' downstairs - below our room 129 kept us awake all night which was unacceptable. I did go to see what was happening but thought better of it as they were drinking heavily and singing and shouting. The next morning I asked to see who was in charge and asked for my money back as we had come away for a holiday!! we are pensioners and had to do some very long journeys in the week and this was not a good start. I personally would have called the Police because it was that bad. someone else at breakfast had also had a problem and had had to go and sleep in his car !! I am still waiting for my refund.

    The room was fine. It was clean and tidy. The breakfast was what we wanted not too much for me but my husband enjoyed his bacon and eggs. The bed was good.

    Not a fan of the room layout with a large frosted glass window into the rest of the bedroom. Not a deal-breaker but don't personally understand this trend in hotels.

    Nice room with a comfortable bed. Enjoyable breakfast. Walkable to train station

    We were lucky to get the last room which was for disabled people. Unfortunately there was a very loud noise coming from a fan outside (we were at the back of the hotel) which made it a bit hard to sleep and impossible to open the window. I phoned reception at midnight but nobody answered. Also there was no bath and the room was quite dark. The next day the receptionist rang to apologise and put us in a more expensive room for free, which was very kind of her. The new room was lovely, my only critisism is the water tasted bad, perhaps as it was in the old part of the hotel, but there was bottled water provided. Also the kettle made our tea taste bad for the first few cups so they must have cleaned it with some chemical and not rinsed it properly. Apart from that everything was great.

    Almost everything. Excellent beds, great location, friendly staff and a nice hotel.

    The room we stayed in and a considerable amount of damp/mould around the windows. Bathroom needs to be revamped as the bath panel was peeling and rust around the mirror

    Location was good and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.

    Bath was a little stiff to operate

    I stayed with my 16 month old, just a day trip from London to explore the area, the Hotel was just a great location ro so so. The room was spacious enough to put some toys and room for my son to play. The bed was huge, so no need for a cot and it was very comfy. I really enjoyed the variety at breakfast with hot and cold choices, also liked the generous yet compact Kellogs boxes. There's nothing like a good morning coffee, and so good that that they served Starbucks as an option!. Staff were so accommodating and understanding, really helped me with the little one when I needed it, and generally so helpful. Looking forward to my next visit to Sittingbourne from London and would stay again!

    Heating didn't work in the room, so with being so lean, I was very cold, with being mainly in my room until show day I had to really wrap up to stay warm. This is the only down side of the stay.

    I was there for a bodybuilding show and had breakfast included with my room. We requested egg whites for breakfast and the chef was so accommodating and produced it in the morning. I couldn't have been happier with the level of service all staff gave.
