The hotel failed to inform me that their roof was leaking prior to my visit and only told me as I checked in. I couldn't find any communal toilets in the hotel section so was forced to use the toilet and watch I didn't slip in the puddle of water that accumulated on the floor.

The check in staff were friendly and accommodating. The location was good for our requirement. Nice pub and most of the locals were friendly. Felt unwelcomed with the seating in the non-operational bar where we were trying to accommodate the viewing of the game for the other guests. Felt blamed for parking in the space provided as directed by staff; there was no signage saying that the area was to be kept clear as this is a fire exit. However, alternative parking provided relatively quickly. Also, the fan provided in the room did not work.

Won’t recommend this place.

I would not stay here again. The bedsheet had hair/dust, kettle in the room wasn’t too clean, there was only a single cup besides the fact that I booked a king double room and the floor mat in the toilet was untidy.
The exhaust fan looked as if it was not cleaned.

A reasonably-priced and well-located hotel.

I was greeted by the friendly manageress. I was bumped up to a larger room from my original single so I can't say if the facilities are the same. The room was clean and comfortable with a microwave and fridge as well as the usual coffee/tea, etc. It had a fan to cool you down and an extra cover to warm you up. The shower-room was a reasonable size with added toiletries.

I was interested in a low priced hotel, IN LONDON! Expedia listed this hotel as in London. This hotel is far outside of London! The time it would take, to get a train, plus the money for the train, would be too time consuming for this trip! Because Expedia listed this non refundable hotel, in London, when it was at least 45 minutes away (one way), Expedia ruined the London part of my trip!

Gravesend is not a holiday destination, but it suited us as we were visiting family. The pub was friendly and well attended and there were plenty of eating places within only a few minutes walk. People we met were genuine and friendly, though Gravesend still has a bit of a reputation for being a bit \"in-your-face.

Handy for an overnight stop in Gravesend

A one-night stop over the Christmas period. Room was warm and comfortable with a mini-fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. We checked in a little early and got a key which allowed us to access the room later without needing to go through the pub (which is lovely, but busy). We couldn't park on site when we checked in but when we came back later, after the pub closed, we had no problem at all. Friendly staff.
The pub is close to the railway line so there is some noise from trains but you'd expect some noise in a town centre pub.

No Food on site and hot water eventually

While the room is clean and comfortable one of the main reasons I chose this stay was that they said they had a restaurant but the restaurant is closed and no food was available on site.

Hot water takes forever to come through in the sink and
I had to turn on the electric shower isolator switch in the main room.

That said probably one of the most comfortable beds I've slept in at a hotel but I was not keen on the woolen duvet cover

Given that I had to go out for food it would have been nice to have had a small desk or table to sit at. I found some plates and cutlery in the cupboard but had to wash them before they could be used.

Smallest TV in the world,
