8/10 Very good

Lovely pub/hotel with good food i a great location

Lovely pub/hotel in a great location. We had an excellent Sunday roast .The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. My only criticism is that it needs a lick of paint here and there.

Jason, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was VERY helpful. There was a problem with the reservation through Expedia, only one bed in out room rather than two. They ended up giving us a second room free of charge. Really accommodating. Also free parking!

Excellent stay.

Beautiful building, well decorated room and excellent breakfast. Staff were very friendly and professional, welcoming at all times and the room, bar and restaurant are beautifully decorated. Room amenities were excellent, just a shame we didn’t discover the brownies until it was too late!

Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is nice and comfortable but can be a bit noisy from people walking around upstairs as old building with lots of wooden floors
Jonathan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Adequate but a bit expensive
Stephen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the place but unfortunately there were huge issues with our reservation where one of rooms was given away by mistake and we offered a downgraded room. Although when we asked for refund we were going to get it, it was a disappointing experience and we booked certain rooms for a reason. In the end we were given another room same quality to the detriment of someone else checking in later who would have experienced the same issue as we took their room. Really loved the room though and breakfast was great.
Josie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We booked this hotel for a special occasion. The room was gorgeous and clean and comfortable and worth the money we paid for it, albeit very cold and drafty through the night, with the windows rattling in the wind, which we could forgive, with it beaing an old property. We had informed the hotel of the reason for our visit, however no acknowledgement of this was made. Previously when we've stayed in other places, they at least said happy birthday when we arrived. The food was absolutely stunning, but there was a very long wait for it, which seemed unnecessary as it did not seem overly full. The waiting staff all seemed very apologetic when we mentioned this and were lovely throughout our stay.

didn't have breakfast, but evening menu was extensive, varied & v good V old property so difficult to rate against a modern place, but we'd happily return

Enjoyable time in Tenterden

Excellent location, friendly staff. Comfy room spacious and a good shower. A few issues with the heating being noisy and on throughout the night also unable to open front window
John, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The floors were creaky and could hear the quests in the room above walking around and down pipe when they flushed the toilet. If you were taller than 5ft 10in I would have difficulty in the bathroom, especially the shower. Paint work was tried.
Susan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay

Old pub with rooms. Our room was on the second floor and was very hot. There was a fan but it was just moving the air around, obviously not the sort of building you can instal aircon. Decor was a bit mismatched but bed was comfortable and room was clean. Bottles of UHT milk are nice as you get more but the heat did not do them any favours. Breakfast costs extra and we had it on first morning, it was acceptable, the bacon was the best item.
Tracey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable quiet room with nice touch of coffee/tea etc and also some payable snacks. Nice big TV. Fluffy towels. Bath with overhead shower.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very old fashioned pub which I liked with a decent choice of beverages. The man who helped us check in and later serve us drinks was very helpful, polite and present. However I didn’t like or understand having to leave my card details and effectively a deposit for items that had been made available in the room. If you don’t trust people just don’t have them available. The other issue was the floor in the room which was very unsteady and the hotel and hotels.com should really add that somewhere when people are choosing. Whilst it was ok for us it definitely would not have been for others.

Friendly staff and great service paticulary in evening Good food and selection of wines at reasonable prices
Graham, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a lovely - period dated pub with wood beams. The facilities were excellent and the hosts were fantastic I used this for a visit to the nearby vineyard. Its directly on the high street with its own car park. There are many shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes on the high street, and the steam train station is just off the high street
Theresa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Could be great

Everything was ok but it could have been so much better with a bit more attention to detail. Breakfast service is less than slick but when it comes, it’s great. The rooms are showing signs of wear and tear eg flaking pain in the bathroom ceiling, coffee stains on the dressing table. Checking out was a nightmare.
David, 4-night trip

Centre of Tenterden

The stay was ok, it served its purpose. Most of the staff were excellent. I understand that it is an old building but the uneven floors are terrible, with a step just as you open the door to the room, unbelievable.
