As background, before booking this hotel, we dismissed other less expensive options, as they didn’t have air conditioning. The hotel room itself is well appointed with a good layout and very comfortable bed. …

This hotel is a franchise of Holiday Inn (so is run by a limited company trading as Holiday Inn and paying Holiday Inn a fee to do so). It is run by Seven hotels investments limited owned by MULCHANDANI, Phatahchand|Ghanshamdas. …

We were in the area visiting some friends who were staying at Warden Caravan Park.We went and checked in late around 22:30, so obviously we were tired from travelling and was looking forward to relaxing in the room.The room was okay, but what made us really disappointed was the air conditioning. It could not fill a room that small, and in the middle of the night, it stopped working around 2 AM.It was really warm, the window wouldn't open properly due to rust. Luckily they had a paper menu we used as a fan.I tried calling reception just as we arrived to request for a fan, but no one answering. I woke up around 2 AM when the air conditioning stopped and tried to call reception again for a fam, but no one answered.Certainly did not get a good night's rest.The toilet was another thing. The flush was really hard to press, there was a teaspoon on the sink which led us to think that the room was not cleaned well.However, the bed was nice and the pillows as well. Reception was quick and courteous when we checked in and out.

I had the pleasure of spending some time at the bar in the Holiday Inn Sittingbourne, and I must commend Carla for her exceptional service. While I worked away and enjoyed a few drinks, Carla served me with professionalism and courtesy. She managed the bar with ease, always greeting me and other residents with a warm smile. Her efficiency and friendly demeanor truly added to the experience.The bar area itself is a great spot to work, offering Starbucks coffee and a relaxing ambiance. With excellent Wi-Fi and plenty of charging points, it's a fantastic place for both casual work sessions and more formal business meetings. Whether you're there to unwind or to get some work done, the facilities cater to a variety of needs. The seating is comfortable, and the atmosphere is both calm and productive, making it an ideal location for business travelers like myself.I’ll definitely be returning, not only for the convenient facilities but also for the outstanding service that Carla provided. Highly recommended!

Staff are lovely car park area when found good, place is very run down, the owners seem not to care at all. The staff hard working, polite and attentive. However whole place needs updating and investing in, my toilet did not flush and just not what you expect from IHG etc. Internet amazing, breakfast limited, coffee machine stopped working, maybe try buying new equipment. Food limited.

I took my son to his prom which was being held at the Holiday inn. He had a lovely time and enjoyed his 3 course meal. Staff were friendly and helpful. I would recommend the Holiday inn as a good place to have a prom, party or wedding venue.

We stay in Holiday Inns every week, this feels a long way off what we normally experience. Room was fusty, not a full door on the toilet and didn’t smell great so it’s a bit like being back at primary school. …
