Recent Reviews in Cooling

ORIDA Maidstone Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall good value for money. Plenty of car parking which we got for free as delay in gettinf our room ready otherwise £6. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds. Decent breakfast options. Crowded pool and pool a bit cold. Gym a bit small but has most equipment. Bathrooms need updating."

The Inn on the Lake Hotel

8/10 Good

"Generally our experience was good. Getting there was fairly easy. Check in went smooth, the view from room over the lake was beautifull.we slept well.Food was good, we had breakfast only.Waiting time for an English breakfast seemed bit long and portion size could be bit bigger.Staff was kind and friendly.We stayed there for 1 night only. My only complain is first impression when we entered our room there were big stains on a carpet, which made us uncomfortable and want to leave immediately.On the drain in shower there was still bit of hairs.Carpets in a hallway are worn off as well. Taken away cleanliness issue it is a good value for the money and a lovely set up over the lake."

Spring River Ebbsfleet by Marston's Inns

8/10 Good

"All good great staff and all"

DoubleTree by Hilton Dartford Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"Tuck shop handy. Clean and pleasant."

Hamlet Hotels Maidstone

8/10 Good

"Very pleasant welcome. Room clean but wardrobe disappointing and smell in bathroom otherwise nice room. Enjoyed a beer in the garden at night! Great breakfast! Bit disappointing when checking out as waited 5 minutes and no staff appeared! As we didn’t need to settle any bill I just left the key on the counter."

King Charles Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel and room were clean, and staff were good, but there was no air conditioning anywhere, in the rooms or the restaurant. They just relied on floor fans. Really not good with the summer we've had. Plenty of parking spaces, but no EV charge points."

Village Hotel Maidstone

10/10 Excellent

"Probably the best service I have received"

Holiday Inn London-Bexley by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Brilliant overnight stay. Very close to the road, so a little noisy as we had to have the windows open. Shower had a very weak flow. Breakfast wad lovely, hot and fresh. Staff, very polite and helpful. We felt having to pay to park at the hotel we were staying in was unnecessary, it should be included in the stay. Few negatives, but would definitely stay again"

Seven Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, perfect location 👌"
