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.

Room very dated and not a good standard . No soap provided until requested , and security into annex meant anyone could enter. Door to room also poor and did not lock easily.

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.

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.

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 .

Wouldn’t Stay again.
Blood stain on the sheets, no evening meals, things falling from the ceiling in the breakfast area, no tea out for breakfast, no pastries like advertised and very limited fruit options.
Staff only doing their best as it only seemed to be one person to cover the desk and breakfast or the desk and the bar at any one time.

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.

2/10 Poor
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.
