This property is run down and in need of refurbishing. Carpets I'm the room and general areas all stained. Stains on the walls and curtains in the room. Almost no WiFi signal in the room resorted to using my phone for WiFi. Very disappointed and mislead. Will never stay here again, I thought I would try this place as I now travel frequently tpmthe Maidstone area. Dinner was ok and breakfast was quite decent with a good choice hence the 3 out of 10.

Kashyap P. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Warm and efficient welcome at Reception . Our room had all the expected amenities but we felt that the bath tub needed some grab rails for safety reasons and the shower was not as powerful as we would have liked. The restaurant and the bar offered good food and drink that was reasonably priced. The breakfast was good as well. Overall , a comfortable stay but teh bathroom requires some improvement.

We've been a few times this year and stayed in different rooms. What hasn't changed is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Whether that's the chap on the bar, reception or the flexibility of the restaurant staff in catering for a coeliac. This time we were also in a meeting room where everything went really smoothly including a separate plate for the coeliac. You've got to try the chocolate brownies!!

Lee B. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

First time stay at this hotel and very convenient for parking and meeting friends. The good - there was a pool but we didn't use it. Also, the breakfast was nice. The negative - despite ticking the e- standby box to pay for an upgrade if available at check in we were phoned a few days before our visit to be informed the room wasn't available. Fair enough. However we were then told another room was available which would be the same additional cost and looked out into the lake/ greenery. The room allocated actually looked internally out into the roof of the lower floors/ kitchen so not what we expected...and disappointing The staff were very friendly however.

Dear Mr B., Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are glad you enjoyed our location, breakfast, and friendly team! At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the mix-up with your upgraded room view. Falling short of what was described to you prior to arrival is not the standard we aim for, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we can address it internally. We hope to welcome you back again soon for an even better stay. Best regards, N Djemal-Guest Service Manager

You need to give your building a good deep clean as a starting point. The hotel is called Great Dane yet corridor’s and the building in general smells like a dusty wet dog. Very off putting. I only booked here as the hotel down the road was charging £326 per night, as they probable don’t see you as equal competition. Even older Travelodge’s are a better option. The staff are doing the best they can, but you really need to clean the building. Room was okay, not the best but okay.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at the Great Dane Hotel. While we are glad to hear that your room was acceptable and that our staff did their best to assist you, we are deeply concerned by your comments regarding the cleanliness and odor in our corridors and public areas. Maintaining a fresh, clean, and welcoming environment is fundamental, and it is clear we fell well short of that standard during your visit. Please rest assured that your comments have been escalated directly to our general manager and head of housekeeping. We are taking immediate steps to conduct a deep cleaning of our carpets and public walkways to address the issue directly. We appreciate your candid review, as it highlights exactly where we need to improve. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future to show you a significantly improved experience.

Marcel L. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Everything is alright with the room and the restaurant. However, when making the reservation in the Accor ALL-app, I selected the option to partially pay in points. At check-out, the receptionist said this was impossible for her; she'd have to ask the reservations department. Two days later, I still haven't heard a thing...

Dear Marcel, Thank you for sharing your feedback following your recent stay. We are delighted to hear that you were pleased with your room and enjoyed your experience in our restaurant! We sincerely apologize for the delay and confusion regarding your points redemption during check-out. To clarify how the ALL – Accor Live Limitless program works, points must be redeemed and applied directly at the time of booking on the website or app, rather than at check-out. However, our team should have followed up with you much sooner to explain this and assist you. We are currently looking into your account status to ensure everything is settled properly. Please expect a direct communication from our front office team shortly, or feel free to contact us at [Email/Phone] so we can make sure this is resolved to your satisfaction. Thank you for your patience, and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Warm regards,

Narinder F. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

When i checked in for 3 rooms, one of them has not been cleaned so they changed that. One of the cards did not work. Infact the cards were very temperamental and the long mazy corridors meant frequent lengtjy trips to reception. I was Accor silver once - this reminded why I no longer use the group as first choice

Dear Narinder, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your three rooms. Having an unready room and dealing with unreliable key cards—forcing extra walks down our long corridors—is far from the smooth check-in experience we aim to provide. We are currently testing our key card encoders and lock hardware to ensure this is fixed for future guests. As a previous Accor Silver member, we know you expect a much higher standard from our group, and we regret falling short during your visit. Thank you for your feedback, which will help us address these operational shortcomings directly.

Rooms cold. Asked for radiator on - told they come in at 7pm and if not call for a heater. So I did and no show so gave up. Dirty q tip left in hallway for two days I’m sure housekeeping went up and down at least once — peeling paint and dirty black around bathtub in grout. Heathsuite filthy and allowed children in Jaccuzi despite a sign clearly over it and staff stood right next to it! Only good thing was lovely hard working lady with dark bobbed hair at breakfast Sunday about 9am older- polite and welcoming was working hard.

Dear Claire D., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Mercure Maidstone Great Danes Hotel. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. At Mercure, we strive to provide a superior service experience for every customer; therefore your feedback is very important to us. Please rest assured that we are taking the appropriate measures to address the problem and prevent future occurrence. We appreciate your sharing your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Sincerely,

I managed about three hours' sleep at best. My room was on the roadside and the noise coming through was horrendous. The window might as well have been made of clingfilm rather than glass, it was that bad. On top of that, the room was absolutely freezing. When I raised these issues in the morning, I was simply told, "Oh yes, we haven't turned the heating on yet," and my complaint was then completely dismissed. Really poor experience, and certainly not what I'd expect when paying for a night's accommodation.

I bought Brasserie vouchers. 3 of the limited main courses were not available. Food was poor. Drinks very expensive. 50% more than a pub.

Located close to the places we needed to visit. The room was comfortable and clean, but lacking in some details - no luggage stand, very little storage, no handle(s) on the bath.

Steve K. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

I checked into the hotel on the 9th October after a 3 hour journey, I was allocated a room only to find when I got into it that the toilet had been dismantled and left in pieces. I went to use the phone which fell apart in my hand, so I went back to reception with photographs and was given another room. Which turned out to be a disabled persons room so the bathroom suite was low level which was a little inconvenient as I am over 6ft. It also had a chair in the shower which again was difficult. I didn’t make a fuss at the time but I would like to make an official complaint in this regard, and ask for compensation ? I can supply photos as proof if needed. I await your reply.

Breakfast was warm asked for vegetarian sausages but never received them as Chef was taken out following a senior member of staff, and the afternoon tea was so small would have been ok for a child not fit for an adult and there was 2 of us. The facilities ie swimming pool ect was ok.
