That although above a busy pulsating bar. The soundproofing was of the highest quality and we were not disturbed.

A lovely modern bedroom room and bathroom in a room that retained its period charm of original wooden beams and sash windows and with ample storage space. The pub-hotel is an old, old building with huge fireplaces and interesting information boards about historic Rochester and its famous people . Main bar areas are standard Wetherspoons decor and the accommodation areas are designer smart. Exceptionally comfortable bed and surprisingly 'quiet' room for a room above a pub on a high street. Of course we could hear the laughter from downstairs but it did not deter us from a good night's sleep.
Would probably be more pleasant to stay on nights other than Fridays and Saturdays when the pub is heaving and the High street really busy. Overall very happy with our stay and would use it again.

The room was very clean, and they set up both extra beds we had asked for for our daughters which was great not to have to do that when we arrived! The staff were friendly, and helpful with giving us information on where we could park overnight.
Lots of stairs to go up with a double buggy + two small children!

Nice location.
We arrived late, so it was very nice that the restaurant in the pub was open late
Parking was 5 miutes away. But no big problem

The old charm of the property was exceeded by the comfortable room we had. Located in the ‘old town’, it’s position allowed easy walking access to everything we wanted.
Going for a long weekend, we didn’t have much luggage, so the stairs to the room were not an issue for us, but should be planning to stay a week, with luggage to match, a lift would be an advantage.

A quirky property and in a nice area. my
room was clean and bathroom was lovely. Little extras such as oat milk, cookies and galaxy chocolate sachets in room in addition to normal tea, coffee and milk.
no parking nearby and my room was very close to the bar area so was noisy until quite late. There was also no security and any
patrons could walk upstairs and be at
my bedroom door which didn’t help me
to settle. Poor night’s sleep as a result.

location
room wasn’t ready on check in…bed was on wheels moved a lot and it was way too small considering it was supposed to be extra large? only two thin uncomfortable pillows and no pillow protectors room layout needs reconsidering as you are sleeping on a downhill slope. if they swap the bed with dressing table it would be better.
6.0
Very nice location - walking distance from the train station.
The rooms are on the 1st floor of the pub. At night there was a lot of noise (not until late though) and the smell like beer in the rooms was not pleasant.
10.0
The room was very spacious and very clean.
The food cooked well and very good value for money. The service was also excellent. It was particularly nice that you could take food and drink to the room.
Parking was an issue, but not their fault. Not enough long-stay car parks nearby.

very good location, the room we stayed in(102) was lovely and extremely clean and tidy. the Manager and her staff were very friendly and welcoming to us on arrival which I found very impressive as you have to check into this property in the pub which was extremely busy at the time of our arrival. we stayed for 1 night and then had breakfast the following morning in the pub which was served to us in good time and the food was hot, freshly cooked and tasted nice.
excellent location, good room and food, friendly staff. value for money but not in a cheep way.
