Stay here all the time close to brands hatch and other things to do in Kent. The staff are so nice and friendly. Easy to check in nothing is too much trouble. The rooms which open onto the lake are so nice. But have stayed in other rooms just a comfy. Can’t personally fault it there

The hotel is very clean and the staff polite and helpful. Generously sized rooms with good sized bathrooms. Depending on your way of looking at the hotel it is either outdated ot retro. Breakfast and the food from the restaurant was good quality.

Really like this hotel although it could do with a major refurb. The main thing I wish they would sort out is the stamp size tv’s. Love how dog friendly it is

Generally our experience was good. Getting there was fairly easy. Check in went smooth, the view from room over the lake was beautifull.we slept well.Food was good, we had breakfast only.Waiting time for an English breakfast seemed bit long and portion size could be bit bigger.Staff was kind and friendly.We stayed there for 1 night only. My only complain is first impression when we entered our room there were big stains on a carpet, which made us uncomfortable and want to leave immediately.On the drain in shower there was still bit of hairs.Carpets in a hallway are worn off as well. Taken away cleanliness issue it is a good value for the money and a lovely set up over the lake.

The room was clean but a little dated (bathroom was tiles were something my nan had but it was okay) the feature wall is nice but the wood chip in the rooms give it a basic look. The building in reception and lobby is great. The bed was very comfortable but the pillow a little too soft for my liking.

The room was fairly clean, nothing special and dated,the carpet could do with a shampoo, bathroom old and tiered. The staff were friendly, the breakfast was very good and value for money, lots of dogs as dog friendly. Outside back garden was nice with the lovely lake ,plenty of outside seating.the A2 is right beside the hotel, noisy, but the double glazing is good and couldn't hear it when the window was closed.
