The Tunbridge Wells Hotel

This is actually called the Tunbridge Wells Hotel so hope I am posting my review in the right place! An excellent place to stay and dine. Great location in the heart of the Pantiles. Our room was tiny but very clean and well kept. We got it last minute on a third party site and were glad we had two nights here. The breakfast is a small menu but I appreciate the vegetarian selections. The best breakfast I’ve had was the vegetarian Pattie sandwich. Mmm mmmm! Just the right amount of food, two pieces of crusty toast and a savory veggie patty which reminded me of harvest burgers in the 90s when I first became a vegetarian. Very tasty. They have a 24/7 bar (yaaaaaas) and an excellent wine list. Great dry white wines. My other breakfast here I ordered salmon and cream cheese toast (instead of a croissant) and the husband got one of the croissants. It was good. Top that off with a nice cold Prosecco and that’s a nice Saturday morning holiday. :) the guy who waited on us July 12 in the morning gave us outstanding service. Didn’t catch his name but I was impressed overall. He gave us a taxi recommendation which is always helpful. There was a live jazz band Thursday night outside the hotel and that was very energetic and fun.

Great service from Julian. Was extremely accommodating to arrange breakfast even though I was late.

You have to like stairs and that cosy pub feel as the reception is the bar. Get past that and you can easily appreciate the perfect location, slice of history building and it was actually great having a nice bar on the ground floor as well as a very good breakfast.

The restaurant at The Tunbridge Wells Hotel offers a wonderfully warm and refined atmosphere that makes every visit feel special. The interior blends classic charm with a welcoming, homely feel — soft lighting, elegant décor, and thoughtful details create a space that invites you to relax from the moment you walk in. One of the restaurant’s most captivating features is the fireplace at the heart of the room. Its gentle glow adds a sense of comfort and intimacy, especially on cooler evenings, making it the perfect place to enjoy a leisurely dinner, a glass of wine, or a quiet moment with good company. Combined with attentive service and beautifully presented dishes, the ambiance of the restaurant makes every meal feel memorable. It’s a place where warmth, character, and good taste come together effortlessly.

Excellent Hotel! Room was lovely and staff were brilliant. Would very much recommend. If you have mobility issues, would also recommend you let the hotel know so that they can book a room on one of the lower floors (no lift)

Decent stay here. Comfortable beds, nice showers (with good water pressure!). TV signal was pretty bad and the location on Google maps is currently wrong! Make sure you go to the pantiles as that's where it's based.

Only went in here for a cocktail after work but I have to say the atmosphere was calm and happy, Staff were friendly and funny. Have to commend the staff being in catering can be stressful and they always seem to be positive no matter the covers. Bar manager was a great character, Lovely espresso martini asked how I wanted it but I said do what you think is best and could fault it. Thank you guys and girls

An outstanding hotel for the price. Everything exceeded expectations, from the warm welcome, to the ambience, to the choice of drinks. I felt an overwhelming need to do a good review because I couldn't fault the place. I came away feeling like I'd definitely like to stay here again and feel like engineering a way to make it happen again soon! Missed out on the opportunity to have an evening meal here, but if the food at breakfast is anything to go by, I'll enjoy going to the restaurant next time.
