We stayed recently on the 23rd May 2025. The staff were incredibly well mannered - especially receptionist Becky. The stay was very clean, safe and comfortable. Next time we come back to the area we will be staying for sure. Would reccomend.

A busy modern pub with separate restaurant and a small hotel. Room well appointed and clean, we had a waterfront room with large patio. Breakfast a little disappointing, very small buffet with limited options but a reasonable cooked breakfast menu.

Lovely, historic pub walking distance from the Chatham Dockyards. Nice rooms, nice staff, great setting. Breakfast was excellent each day. Dinner was even better. Chatham Dockyards are definitely worth a visit and the pub is just a short walk away. Also, Rochester Cathedral and Rochester Castle are a short drive away and touring them made for a lovely day. The area around the pub is very walkable and there is an outlet mall just across the road.

Very good hotel and room excellent (could be better with in room fridge). Breakfast service though was very poor, disinterested staff and not a good attitude towards allergens - despite the venue saying GF options available (placing an iPad on the table and saying look at that - with just bacon and egg to choose from wasn’t great).

Lovely two night stay

Check in was great, staff checked cars into the parking system for the duration of the stay, food was excellent, room was clean, the staff were all great, lots of choice of eating establishments, but I wouldn't have wanted to have missed out on an evening meal here either

Lovely stay if visiting dockyard

Nice cosy room and big bath. Nice to have bar and restaurant on site. Walking distance to shopping and the historic dockyard. Friendly staff. Free parking. Nicer to be overlooking the marina than the dockyard where other hotel is situated.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately our stay was badly affected by the restaurant being closed on arrival. We turned up at 8.03pm after a 3hr drive and was told the kitchen shut at 8pm. Felt this was very poor and they could have shown us a little more empathy. I would be more understanding had the restaurant times be detailed on any of our booking correspondence or on the hotel advert (the breakfast times are detailed). If that had been the case, we would have know and stopped to eat on the way. It's a shame as it's usually a good restaurant. This could have been very easily avoided and ruined our stay.

Great stay

I go regularly and the stay is always great. The food is great, the only thing that wish is the breakfast starts earlier as they start at 7.30, so it can be a rush to eat and go, overall fantastic stay and will go again.
