Soundproofing Perfection

I was amazed by the effective soundproofing in my top-floor room. Despite being near a busy area, I had a peaceful night's sleep, which made my stay so much more enjoyable.

Gym Access Deal

Having access to the nearby gym facilities for just £7.50 was a fantastic perk! I enjoyed the swimming pool and jacuzzi, which added a great touch to my fitness routine during the stay.

Really good Meal Deals

The meal deal for a two-course dinner and all-you-can-eat breakfast was an excellent value. The quality of the food exceeded my expectations, making dining at the hotel a real highlight of my stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the room was quiet and exceeded my expectations for peace. However, the breakfast was a letdown as it was cold, and the staff seemed stressed and unhelpful. The location was convenient for exploring nearby areas, but being close to the railway track was a drawback.

The hotel had a slightly worn feel to it but was clean and comfortable, fitting my family just right. The view of the river was beautiful, and despite lots of entertainment options outside, it was surprisingly quiet. The location was superb, near a cinema, bingo, bowling, and numerous restaurants. Within 20 minutes of Bluewater, Rochester, and Chatham, with a large supermarket nearby in Strood and petrol just around the corner.

The dining experience was typical premier fare and cooked okay but lacked a welcoming atmosphere, with no clear organization like collecting room numbers. The artisanal bread provided a unique touch.
