Dog Bear - Maidstone

Just popped in for a drink but what a lovely place. Real cosy feel in the bar area with comfy chairs and overhead beams. Good TV to watch the football. Polite friendly staff. Location: 5

Nice spacious room with a comfortable bed. Lots of choice for breakfast, from eggs benedict, to a standard english or porridge. Evening meal was again really good. A couple of menu items not available but still a good choice, served quickly, well cooked and a good attention to detail. Given the building layout I can imagine some rooms would be a bit noisy, but we had no problems with this. Staff were friendly, but we were never once asked how our food was, would we like more drinks etc, or asked how are stay was when we checked out. It was also annoying to hear the barmaid and housekeeper moaning about the job and the management on our first night while sitting in the bar.

A nice mid-range hotel. Good food, cozy place to eat. Friendly service e.g Room away from pub. Rooms: 3 Service: 4 Location: 4 Hotel highlights: Kid-friendly, Great value

The restaurant was very disappointing as there was no internet in the room, the shower was pathetic, and breakfast was of poor quality. However, the room was very affordable so expectations were not high. It would be nice if they invested some money to improve the overall experience. On the bright side, the staff were very friendly. Overall, I would rate the rooms a 2, service a 3, and location a 2.

Stayed one night here. Room was spacious and very nice. The breakfast was very good as well. There is a decent car park behind the building. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5 Hotel highlights: Quiet
