Top The Friars Hotel Reviews

Village Hotel Maidstone

10/10 Excellent

"Such a lovely hotel, with friendly staff"

Bridgewood Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Travelled from Spain to attend a wedding Stated 2 nights. Receptionist was very polite and friendly Can’t comment on facilities as we didn’t use them or the restaurant The outside areas are well maintained. On the whole, we had a very enjoyable stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel"

Hamlet Hotels Maidstone

8/10 Good

"Very pleasant welcome. Room clean but wardrobe disappointing and smell in bathroom otherwise nice room. Enjoyed a beer in the garden at night! Great breakfast! Bit disappointing when checking out as waited 5 minutes and no staff appeared! As we didn’t need to settle any bill I just left the key on the counter."

The King and Queen

8/10 Good

"Check-in was a little slow — the booking system seemed to be having an off day — but the staff were friendly and helpful throughout. We were shown to our room, which was upstairs in the side building. We’d read other reviews mentioning these rooms run hot, and unfortunately that held true for us too. Thankfully there was a fan in the room, which we set up and it made a real difference. Aside from the heat, the room itself was excellent — really clean, well maintained, and everything in great condition, with plenty of hot water for both the shower and basin. One small niggle (echoed in other reviews too) is that the stairwell light runs on a push-button timer that’s set a bit too short. Overall though, a high-quality room, just a touch warm. We didn’t eat here in the evening, but we made good use of the excellent range of beers on offer — very welcome after a day out, and thoroughly enjoyed. Breakfast was the one letdown. It’s a continental spread — a carton of orange juice, a couple of boxes of cereal, an oat bar, and a small carton of milk in the fridge. Underwhelming enough that we walked across the road instead, where we had a brilliant breakfast. If the owner’s reading this, it might be worth either partnering with the place across the road and offering breakfast there for a small supplement, or scrapping the current offering altogether and just pointing guests in that direction. Would we stay again - yes absolutely!"

Royal Lodge Maidstone

10/10 Excellent
