I stayed at this hotel for four nights with a group on holiday. We had been moved from the Holiday Inn Rochester-Chatham where I had stayed before.This was not as good as the Rochester Holiday Inn in that it had fewer facilities, notably no indoor swimming pool. Everything about this hotel was just up to the standard I would expect from a holiday Inn but no more.

A notable good point was that there are ground floor rooms with easy access (no steps) for wheelchairs to the restaurant, lounge, reception and outside.

The hotel is very easy to find, as it is by a major road junction. The downside is that many rooms suffer from appreciable traffic noise which is not cut out entirely by the double glazed windows.

A charge is made for using the car park - even guests and visitors have to pay. I considered this particularly mean-spirited of Holiday Inn

Worth considering as a base if you can get a good nighly rate and don't mind traffic or paying to park... more
