We got an email to advise us to book a table to eat in the restaurant, I rang to book one and told us kitchen was closed, shame nobody let us know, breakfast was pastry’s from Lidls , 99p for a pack of eight, breakfast looked quite sad 😔 nobody approached us to offer us any toast, small plate with a few slices of ham and cheese on it. Overall a little disappointed.

very disappointed
We chose this Hotel because of it was supposedly close to Brands Hatch race circuit ( 6.7 miles ) it is actually nearer to 15 miles. we found it very difficult to locate and no hot food was available for evening meal or breakfast. All that was was missing was Basil Faulty.

Disapointed
The pub it self had lots of history and was very interesting to look around. The rooms were not what we were expecting for a superior room it was very basic, The shower door was loose and fell off its runners, the cushions on the bed were all ripped. The handle on the bathroom tap missing and all the trim around the bottom of the shower was coming of. Bathroom floor could of done with a good clean. We only stayed for one night of the 2 nights we booked and went elsewhere for the second night

I was initially concerned about the noise and people as it is a pub and I was staying with my teenage daughter. But there was no need to worry it was quiet clean, food was lovely staff friendly. Town center. Would stay there again.

Queen Victoria’s view
Staff were very pleasant. Room was adequate but needs updating. Would have liked a blind at the window in the bathroom. There was no mattress protector on the bed. Breakfast was quite nice, included in the price 👍
