Best Hotels near Kemsing, Sevenoaks

Unfortunately not the best hotel we've stayed at. Booked for a spa break, but unfortunately parts of the hotel let down our relaxation. We stayed for 2 nights; dinner and breakfast was included in our deal, and as the hotel was advertised as a spa we thought we would spend the two days in the hotel. We ended up not bothering with breakfast one day, and spent our second day out of the hotel. Stains on the bedroom floor, bedside tables with lots of dust, chipping paint and dust at the windowsill, wardrobe door wouldn't shut, told air con and robe/slippers included but neither a part of our stay. Dinner both evenings was nice and a good choice of drinks in the bar with background music. Staff are friendly. We didn't bring up any of our issues to staff because nothing was actually wrong with our stay or we found to be a problem, just not at the standard we anticipated given some of the reviews and website photos. If you're staying for one night for an event or for work, it's absolutely fine. We thought it would be a spa-focused hotel so were a bit disappointed that it's a hotel with a steam room and a pool. We didn't have a bad stay at all, thank you to the staff who were nice, especially the young kids in the restaurant and bar.

Wonderful 3 night stay with my grandson. We were visiting family. Even though it was over the new year celebrations, we had a good night's sleep and enjoyed the pool. Lovely friendly staff, which was very welcoming. Even my 6 Yr old grandson commented how nice the hotel was. Sally in the restaurant at breakfast was very welcoming, especially. Reception was very helpful too, even when popping a missing towel, etc, up to our room personally.

Stayed at the Donnington manor hotel on the 20/21 April after attending a nearby wedding. On arrival greeted by a polite attentive assistant, already checked in online, so only had to register car for free parking and collect room key. Room 307 second floor, very nice room clean , well decorated and quiet. All the public area's in hotel in very good decrotive condition. Sleepy well on memory foam mattress, slept well. On Sunday morning went for breakfast in the restaurant buffet style, good selection of fresh fruit cereal and cooked meats, eggs cooked to your order (nice touch) all good quality fayre enjoyed breakfast, and service by all staff. If in area would definitely stay again

Without doubt the best nights stayover I’ve had in years. There’s lots of hotels that play tricks on you. Like, instant coffee in a Cafetière, putting you in disabled access when you're of full ability to charging you for stuff you’d expect to get for gratis, wifi, parking etc etc. When the hot water only goes luke warm, the bath is 4ft and the shower heads max height is 5ft and you’re 5ft 10. The list is endless. Frozen butters, bread that’s thinner than a tramps shoe, jeez, don’t get me started. Non of that with The Castle in Eyesfleet. Plush, decor with soft music playing in the back ground, great lighting and all smiles from their super team. Rooms are light with crisp bed linen, lanterns, coffee machines, windows that actually open, vintage fans, green plants etc. The Castle is like Soho Houses baby brother. A great menu from their relatively new young chef. He left the flat plains of Norfolk heading for the Smoke, stumbled upon The Castle in Eyesfleet and has stayed ever since. Believe me, I know a Thai curry pie sounds grim but it was pretty sensational, although the accompanied gravy boat could’ve done with a touch of coconut/curry sauce. I’d suggested it, so if you order the curry pie and it comes with the sauce, you’ve me to thank. What else can I tell you? The bar? Cocktails, craft beers and more spirits than a haunted house. Full bodied reds available by the glass. Always a bugbear when the house red is like flamin’ Vimto. Not at the Castle, the Shiraz went straight to the knees and had me aiming for bed for a great nights kip.

The room is quite big, the bathroom is oversized
