Hotel du Vin & Bistro Tunbridge Wells

Lovely Hotel in prime position to Royal Tunbridge Wells we walked to were we needed to go to family wedding.Reserved parking was a nice touch.Room upgrade was also nice as we stayed two nights only we choose to not have our room refreshed and received drinks voucher to use in the bar instead.Food was fresh and well presented in all excellent.

The hotel itself was very good, and well situated, with comfortable clean rooms, and the breakfast was also very good. The only real downside was the staff attitude in general: whilst they completed their tasks, they were not particularly friendly and welcoming, which, in a town where other hotels are available, is particularly important! Mangemnt need to do some additional customer service training.

Service for neal at bar was worse than macdonalds I will not stay at this chaine again And didn’t stay at same chair in Winchester because of the stay at Tunbridge wells Second class stay and they still have £300 deposit if mine unpaid ! Crooks as well

Great chain, would always they in them if I could. Great people and friendly atmosphere

locality and cleanliness good on arrival the male staff member was indifferent There was no wifi again this visit, staff know about this problem, wasted lots of time waiting for assistance before we had to move rooms to acquire wifi. room was very cold, again male staff member did’nt have a clue, waited a long time before eventually getting a radiator delivered to room, waited until 11.30pm before bathroom was warm enough to have a shower. l was told the heating problem would be sorted the following day and management would be informed. on arriving back to the room the heating wasnt sorted, we had to switch on the radiator and wait again for the room to warm up. l had to call management who apologised saying they hadn’t been given any info on the problems we had since arriving, offered another room butt having already moved once we declined. we were offered a coffee!! the following day we were asked if we were dining in the bistro and if. so to call the manager to which we did, we were told we could have a free glass of wine after first being offered a bottle but then said it would be “house wine” or a glass of wine. Given we had a terrible first night and then having to warm up our room each time we got back into the hotel this shallow offer was not acceptable guest satisfaction. A very disappointing second stay, we wont go back

Nice hotel, but it is in need of an upgrade; it’s beginning to look a bit tatty for the money you pay. I booked a last minute deal and had already paid for my room in advance. On top of that the hotel wanted to secure the room’s cost on my credit card as a deposit. I explained that I had already paid and when I’d stayed here previously, the hotel had processed the deposit and I’d paid twice for the one night. It took 14 days for the money to be released back on to my account. After much arguing, I was told I didn’t have to leave a deposit. When I got to the room, I got a glass out of the “bar area” of the room and discovered despite having a fridge, it was not stocked. I am puzzled as to why I was asked for a deposit since there were no drinks available. Maybe they’ve had untrustworthy guests in the past, but when you stay somewhere and are automatically not trusted, it leaves a rather bad tastes. There’s a budget hotel in the area where I actually receive much better treatment. I think I’ll stay there instead.

Visit family and friends. Disabled parking requirements require looking at. As our signage kept being move by other guests to suit their needs. Maybe hang the disabled sign on the post.

Stay here almost weekly. Location works well for me and the breakfast is great.
