Hotels near St Philip's Church, Tunbridge Wells

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel and I must say it was an excellent experience throughout. Clean spacious room with an incredibly comfortable bed which enabled us to have a great nights sleep. We ate in the bar lovely meal made all the better by the excellent service we received from Tom, he was attentive, friendly and made us feel really welcome. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.

We often stay at Travelodge but have rarely found one that feels like a true old-fashioned hotel with atmosphere rather than just a convenient (and forgettable) place to stay off the highway. This one, however, exceeded our expectations with its charm and historic ambiance. The rooms seem to be varying sizes. Our room was spacious and quiet. The location was excellent—right across from a wooded area / park with walking trails and within 10 minutes walk to shops and restaurants. The staff were welcoming and helpful. There is paid parking but it is reasonable at £5. There is some free parking across from the hotel on the street but it's often full and you can only park there two hours during the day. Some people have pointed out that the floors creak. That's because the floorboards are made of wood. That's how all floors used to be. There's probably not much they can do about it. It's a listed building over 150 years old. My only negative point is the dinner we had here which wasn't anything to write home about. But there are so many excellent restaurants in Tunbridge Wells that you're better off going out. If you walk down to the high street and turn right and walk down a few streets towards Pantiles (past the station and continue downwards) there is an abundance of good restaurants. Or if you want something quick to have in your room, there is a BP about a 16- minute walk (3-4 min drive) where you can get the usual M&S items. This is not a luxury hotel, and it is not perfect, but If you like historic hotels I recommend booking a stay here.

Wonderful 3 night stay with my grandson. We were visiting family. Even though it was over the new year celebrations, we had a good night's sleep and enjoyed the pool. Lovely friendly staff, which was very welcoming. Even my 6 Yr old grandson commented how nice the hotel was. Sally in the restaurant at breakfast was very welcoming, especially. Reception was very helpful too, even when popping a missing towel, etc, up to our room personally.
