Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the excellent food, particularly enjoying the scampi. The hotel maintains a 15th-century feel with contemporary updates, offering comfortable and modern bedrooms, though some rooms are noted to be on the smaller side. The location is convenient, with the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway just 1 km away, and features like the spacious garden and pool table in the TV lounge add to the experience. A good breakfast is provided.

My "double room private bathroom" was quite small. the traffic noise from the road was pretty bad (even at night). also, the shower pressure was weak. It took ages to get properly clean.
