We had a good overnight stay and meal in restaurant. Only issue was lack of plug sockets by the mirror to dry hair, and lighting could have been a bit brighter

Never again
I’ve stayed here before but will not stay again starting working in the kitchen at 9:30 at night is not appropriate When your bedroom is next door to it then being told is the only time they have to do it because the kitchens are open all day when you pay £130 to sleep somewhere you expect to sleep

The best in Chatham. Nice room (superior double) with a great view over the marina, in a good location for boaty types and area visitors. I didn't find it noisy. Nice bathroom amenities tea/coffee tray has lots of choice and good quality products. We had dinner in the restaurant and that was decent too.
