I had a mixed experience during my stay. The food was really good, especially the imaginative vegan dishes, but the room left a lot to be desired due to its size and the lack of a lift. The location was superb for accessing local cafes and shops, but the noise from the street and kitchen was quite bothersome at times.

During my stay at The Tunbridge Wells Hotel, I encountered both charming aspects and concerning issues. The prime location in the Pantiles was a definite highlight, making it easy to explore local shops and restaurants. However, the room was cramped and a bit worn, which was disappointing given the photos online. Overall, while there were enjoyable elements, I'd think twice before returning.

I had a wonderful stay at The Tunbridge Wells Hotel, particularly enjoying the stylish, comfortable rooms that offered great views of the Pantiles. The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about local attractions, which really enhanced my experience. Breakfast was truly excellent, especially the eggs royale, but I did notice that the overhead shower struggled to provide consistent hot water. The car park's location, while not ideal, was only a short walk away.
