Not as tired as some hotels and frankly better than some of the more established chains. I actually stay here in preference to the hotels in Sevenoaks as its good value and I think has better rooms. I have been in the pub next door and had the food. I have to be honest (I could have been exceptionally hungry) but it was one of the nicest steaks I have had for a while. Service was struggling on the night but still only had a 15 min wait. For the beer drinker they had London Pride and another beer on draught. You can get Wi-Fi in the room but it is quite expensive and surely the penny will drop with the Premier Inn people that this is getting to be an essential. However, if you want to log on it will cost you a fiver or more for longer. Receptionist was very helpful and there is a pay as you go internet service in the lobby. Overall good value and certainly better than the places I normally stay in Sevenoaks.There is a good car park which is free and I have never had any trouble parking. One more star for me because of the steak!!

I looked online for a pub for a stop off on our way to the south coast. I came across The Chafford…read moreand decided to give it a go. We were not disappointed. Immediately we walked in there was a cheerful smile from behind the bar. Ordering drinks I was asked if we were eating. As we were there for a lunchtime bite a tab was opened. My partner ordered a tuna mayo baguette. It arrived with a small side salad and chips. Delicious, she said. I ordered whitebait and, beeeg mistake, their version of British nachos. Chips, beautiful chips, covered in chilli beef and cheese. I say, beeeg mistake as the portions, of both, were huge. I couldn't finish it all. All in all a wonderful, friendly pub with fantastic service and really good food. Certainly worth a four star review. Thank you one and all.

Our room was tiny but very clean and well kept. We got it last minute on a third party site and were glad we had two nights here. The breakfast is a small menu but I appreciate the vegetarian selections. The best breakfast I've had was the vegetarian Pattie sandwich. Mmm mmmm! Just the right amount of food, two pieces of crusty toast and a savory veggie patty which reminded me of harvest burgers in the 90s when I first became a vegetarian. Very tasty. They have a 24/7 bar (yaaaaaas) and an excellent wine list. Great dry white wines. My other breakfast here I ordered salmon and cream cheese toast (instead of a croissant) and the husband got one of the croissants. It was good. Top that off with a nice cold Prosecco and that's a nice Saturday morning holiday. :) the guy who waited on us July 12 in the morning gave us outstanding service. Didn't catch his name but I was impressed overall. He gave us a taxi recommendation which is always helpful. There was a live jazz band Thursday night outside the hotel and that was very energetic and fun.

We were fortunate enough to get an outdoor table for an incredible meal and cocktails on a lovely summer evening and a most comfortable room in a delightful historic hotel.

The staff were friendly, attentive and cleared away plates promptly. Only slight negative was the presence of several wasps who seemed to be bothering everyone in the conservatory.

This is like a step back in time but with all the comforts of modern day luxury. We stayed one night in a deluxe suite which was HUGE, and had the best ensuite bathroom I have ever seen. Not even the Cafe Royal in London comes close. That night we had drinks in the garden courtyard, followed by the most exquisite meal we have ever had. We LOVE our food - but this was a gastronomical experience we will never forget. It is a degustation - you will feel like you have to be rolled out of there. The portions are small but there are more than 10 courses, each one getting progressively better and more beautiful. It's expensive - save it for a special occasion. The chef is a master. Also if you get a chance, the little tea room in the village is PERFECTION. We had afternoon tea there with scones, home made strawberry jam and clotted cream. Go for a walk to wear the food coma off. The grounds are like something out of a picture book. There's a terrace on the outside of the wall for sunset viewing. If I could afford it, I would get married here. At least dreams are free.

We also had dinner which was so delicious. The staff was so nice and attentive from the moment we got there until we left the following morning. I wish we could have stayed two nights, as we missed the golf course and I believe it was a croquet field but I'm not positive. I would definitely recommend this place and I would stay here again if I was ever in the area! Thanks again for such a memorable stay, and my apologies for taking so long to review your beautiful place!
