Stayed one night. Wish I had paid a bit more and stayed elsewhere. Have stayed in better places. Room small; shower cool. Unable to use my electric shaver because the shaver socket was blocked off. How tight-fisted can you get? Breakfast would have been extra. Bed and breakfast should mean breakfast included. And £6 to park........ My suggestion: find another... More

In 2011 I took my eleven year old daughter to England so that she could meet my side of the family and I booked on line at the Moorings Hotel in Sevenoaks Kent as this was my home town. I Cannot stress enough to stay away from this hotel! The room was in the "Garden" which consisted of a patch... More

Stayed in this place for a friend's wedding and it really was not pleasant at all The room was not clean and the bed had crumbs in it - the man on reception was rude and the other guests were pretty unsavoury looking Also had to pay extra for the parking and breakfast

Good location - about a minute walk from sevenoaks train station. Very basic single room. You also have to pay to park! Payed £5 extra for breakkfast one morning which was good value but a bit greasy. Central heating system made alot of noise especially during the night. You have to pay for internet access, staff were friendly enough

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL! I booked a friend of mine in to this hotel for a week and paid £3 a day extra for car parking. Do not pay for car parking, there are no spaces as all the parking is sold out as station parking and hotel guests cannot park even if they have paid for a... More

Everything we needed in a home base without an exorbitant price tag. Good clean warm room, effective bathroom, friendly service, nice breakfast etc. We had intended to move on, but extended twice as it was so comfortable to come home to.

It's close to the station, the staff are helpful and friendly and it's reasonable. The room was warm, clean and the bed comfy However it does smell a bit damp when you walk in and there is a smell of curry in the hall. You can't fill the kettle from the sink but there are loads of T-bags, coffee and... More

Yes, it's basic, but clean, comfortable and warm, with a very friendly and helpful staff. Its location is fantastic, being one minute's walk from the station (30 minutes to London), and it also has a large car park: ideal as a working centre. Excellent value, I would return. Can't comment on breakfast as I didn't have it, but tea and... More

If you just want "Travelodge" style accommodation, then this place is fine. Our annexe room in the garden was quiet, clean and warm. The beds were comfortable. The staff were cheerful and friendly, and the bill was modest. I cant rate the breakfast as we didnt take it. Ideally placed for the station. Not the Hilton, but a perfectly reasonable... More

Us two ladies from Dover only stayed one night, but we wished it was longer! Stones throw from the station, Sevenoaks is a lovely town and the Moorings hotel was cosy, warm, welcoming and friendly. Big kettle in room! Cant fault it!
