Hard and lumpy pillows couldn’t sleep
Lovely hotel and great service. Pillows extremely uncomfortable, hard and very lumpy and told that’s all they had so I didn’t sleep well at all, so won’t be returning.

The receptionist was very helpful. The room perfectly adequate, BUT the room was very cold. The radiator and towel rail were not working. Food was very good, BUT the service shocking! 45 mins for our mains to arrive and over 30mins for desserts. Car parking was very conveniently right outside. Would not rebook for that Hotel.

Sorry, unable to review properly - I arrived at 7pm, jet lagged from an overnight flight from Canada. I had a nice meal with my brother and his wife and went to bed. I woke up at ten to eleven (check out is at eleven), threw on some clothes and left. Unable to comment on the hotel.

I only have one criticism and that is the parking. Having booked through Expedia I was disappointed on arrival that there were no parking places available. I spoke to the reception who advised me that I could have booked reserved parking, unfortunately this information was not given to me by Expedia. I also think that with the number of places available preference should be given to people staying as opposed to people using the public bar. Tonbridge Wells is not an easy place to find parking.

This was our second stay at the Royal Wells and it was as good as we remembered. Friendly staff cater all requests and the large room in which the 4 of us stayed was very clean and well equipped, as was the En suite which was ample with nice shower and good selection of toiletries. The breakfast is excellent with good quality ingredients provided in a lovely setting. We look forward to coming back soon.

A nice hotel let down a little by poor management
Very nice hotel and dog friendly which is always a bonus for us. Unfortunately, because we were staying over the weekend, there were parties going on both nights so we could hear the music. But at least we were on the third floor so it wasn't too bad and it did finish promptly at midnight, but the lower floors must have found it noisy. Our main disappointment was breakfast the second morning when they clearly didn't have enough staff so service was very slow and they didn't have time to top up the buffet items so ran out of bread and fruit. The staff were very friendly and apologetic and it wasn't their fault but the hotel should have been better prepared.
