I stayed for a week and the best part of the stay was the bed. It was super comfy and got a great nights sleep each night. The bathroom was ok, but the shower was small, so a bit of a squeeze. There was also a step in my room, from the bathroom to the bed part which took a bit of getting use to. The staff I met were very friendly and helpful.

Great location, classic building.

This is an old building so, if you like creaking floorboards and a warren of rooms, it is your sort of place. Conveniently located at the top of Tonbridge High Street, with car parking, it provides easy access to the surrounding area. Breakfast was excellent.

We are repeat visitors to the Rose & Crown. There's no other hotel with location and free parking. As usual we had a twin bed room in the annex. The beds were okay, not fantastic. Room was clean, and the hotel was quiet at night. All the staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful. Although, we did have to ask for towels and loo roll for the bathroom when we arrived. Shower was the biggest let down - nonexistent water pressure - but there's a bath if you want it instead.

Sadly this hotel is extremely old fashioned, has issues with cleanliness within the room to the point where I felt filthy, no breakfast after certain times although advertised as ran out and issues with pigeons right outside the window of my room. I have complained to Expedia. Good location but aside from that sadly everything about this hotel is not good!

The hotel is in a good central area for Tonbridge with easy access to shops and Tonbridge School which was were my daughter was getting married. All the staff we met were polite so had no problem there. Unfortunately what let's the hotel down is that it is in dire need of renovation. Room 5,the bathroom shower could not be adjusted from scalding hot, so impossible to have a proper shower, there was also lack of basics with barely enough toilet paper for my wife and myself. The bar had run out of half the shown drinks on the pumps when used. We did not have breakfast so unable to comment on that.

Pleasant Stay

Pleasantly surprised after reading negative reviews. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was warm, clean and comfortable. Yes, the floors creaked but its what you would expect in an old building such as this. Plenty of hot water for bath/shower. However shower lost pressure due to lots of people showering at the same time each morning. There was a good choice for breakfast and cooked to order. Excellent location in the centre of town.

I stayed for 2 nights whilst working in the area and despite some terrible reviews, I found it to be more than reasonable, with good access to local amenities, parking was great on site and I was able to use it for the 3 days of work, and it was clean too. Staff were friendly and helpful, the coffees from the bar were also decent, and it was quiet at night too. The bed was a little old and had seen better days but was fine for being comfortable, the room was a little old fashioned and the floors were a bit noisy with creaky floorboards, but it is an old pub, so I felt it was fitting with the character. I'd happily book again.

Property decor is very tired. Room was clean but carpet had holes in it, tiles off the wall in the bathroom, very squeaky floorboards. Had to ask for more coffee in the room as only enough for one cup although staff helpful with this. No shower gel in the dispenser in the bathroom. Felt it was not worth the £80 per night without breakfast.

Almost fine

Good location on Tonbridge High Street, decent price at the last minute. Staff friendly when around. However, the room was cold and the radiator didn't work; there was no cover on the mattress (sheet straight onto mattress is weird); and the shower was dirty and didn't work properly. Shower: body hair on the wall and shower curtain, water pressure/temperature awful. The water was so hot, and the cold pressure so low, that a hot low pressure dribble was all I could achieve. It was as disappointing a start to the day as it sounds. There was no one at reception when I checked out. It's an old 'characterful' building, but there's no excuse for the dirty shower.
