Henry C. Families - 7/16/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I booked a double and two single rooms for a family party at a local restaurant. The rooms were adequate though hot and stuffy. But one of the singles which my 80-year old brother was allocatyhad obviously been used by a smoker. We complained at 4pm and we're assured it would be checked. At 10pm, on our return, nothing had been checked. No explanation was offered and the next day reception were unaware of the complaint made. I complained to the management by email as reception suggested but 4 days later have not even received a reply!

Melanie G. Couples - 7/14/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed for two nights so we were close to leeds castle as we had concert tickets. It was Just the heat that spoilt our stay as the corridor was 31 degrees and our room must have been 38 + making it very uncomfortable and difficult to sleep, on a positive note we did enjoy breakfast and the air-conditioning in the bar/restaurant area, the grounds were lovely to walk around and the hotel was easy to find.

Dear Melanie, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that our location was convenient for your visit to Leeds Castle, and that you enjoyed the breakfast, our grounds, and the air-conditioned bar and restaurant during your stay. We are sorry that the exceptionally hot weather made your room and the corridor uncomfortably warm, affecting your sleep. We understand how important a comfortable night's rest is, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope that, despite the heat, you had a wonderful time at the concert and that we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more comfortable stay in the future. Kind regards, Poppy Guest Service Supervisor
