Hotels Near Maidstone Tourist Information in Maidstone

In all honesty and respect to the Travelodge Team, I must say it was totally the opposite of what I expected which is entirely NO fault of theirs! Coming from Hiton at CDG Paris, Atrium in Heathrow there were absolutely NO comparison!! Travelodge, was used as last resort at the moment as the initial location booked did not appear safe in location, taking into consideration I was traveling on official business. The hotel is basic, they don't provide daily cleaning, nor room service, and if you need towels replaced you'd place the sign on the door before 11am. They offer buffet breakfast and selected dinner, really can't comment much on that.... What I did learn is that the hotel is commonly used for other types of accommodations.... To each his own, I wouldn't do a second time and wouldn't recommend to any of my counterparts. Nonetheless, for the duration of my stay I must highlight Terence, Lisa and Sarah who was always helpful in anyway they could and I can safely say those 3 made my stay a little better than my mind would😁So thank you guys, your personalities and professionalism are appreciated!

This is the only hotel I will stay in when I am in the area. Excellent staff, clean and very comfortable. It is directly opposite the services so you can literally walk out of the door and into the door of the services. The rooms are very cozy and clean.

Having not stayed here for many decades now I was hoping for better. It didn’t start well at reception when asking about the offer of papers in a “privilege” room I was told .. “yeah but you gottta pay for them”! An hour or so later I found the booking confirmation which clearly said papers included with a privilege room. A second visit to reception produced a comment along the lines of “I don’t know anything about that” accompanied by a shrug of the shoulders. Not a good start. I was also surprised that there was no hotel services book in room therefore no info on health club, meal times, operation of coffee machine etc. Even the very basic hotels usually have these. A question on this produced the same line of not knowing anything about it! The room wasn’t anywhere near the standard suggested and was extremely tired and not particularly clean with dusty areas all over. Windows were old fashioned aluminium which meant they needed to be closed due to the A20 nearby. This meant they were dripping with condensation in the morning! One of the bedside light switches was broken and was fixed after reporting, unlike the toilet roll holder that was also broken buy never got fixed! The duvet supplied was far too warm for summer and I have no idea why the bed was so massive but it was quite comfortable. The bathroom was adequate, no more. All in all, I think that Premier Inn rooms are much better and an awful lot cheaper! On the good side... The young guy in bar was very helpful on many things, perhaps he should have been on reception? The restaurant food was good in the evening, breakfast simply OK. I just wish those waiting on wouldn't keep calling everyone 'guys'. Because the bar/lounge and restaurant were essentially the same room, the television on at one end does nothing for the restaurant guests apart from annoy them! But the Health club and were pool fine!

I stayed at the Ship & Trades for two nights with my mother. We shared a very comfortable double room with a lovely view of the marina. Everything was spotlessly clean and the room had everything we needed. Staff were friendly and helpful, and we felt very welcome. The pub and restaurant downstairs had some of the best food and drink in the area. Everything was perfect, and even though the occasion for our visit was sad (a funeral), we had a lovely time. We would definitely stay at the Shp & Trades again.

I booked this hotel last minute for my partners belated birthday celebration. We arrived within 10 minutes of booking and let’s just say… we were treated like royalty. The hotel is perfect and this is why: Secure parking Friendly and professional staff who are EXPERIENCED in hospitality Food is gorgeous Room is beautiful with a giant bed Shower is heaven! There is so much to say but NO WORDS can explain how we were treated !! We felt like family. Like old friends. Even tho we were strangers. We CANNOT recommend highly enough and can’t wait to return.

Great find, very high quality rooms with good security etc The hotel serves great food and the inclusive breakfast is very good with wide choice. There is a large car park with electric charging points. The staff are very helpful and informative. The bar has a good range of beers and real ales etc
