Accommodation at Salomons Estate

The location. It is beautiful and was very convenient for the personal event my wife and I were attending

The electric connection serving the lamps in the room was temperamental. It worked sometimes. I anticipate there is a short somewhere. More importantly, the side lamp on the desk was not screwed in> when I attempted to switch the light on, the top came off in my hand and exposed the live elements .When I reported this to reception there was no sense of concern or apology The breakfasts was old fashioned and mainly unhealthy.

Good setting

The room was too small and looked like a office block

Beautiful property but accommodation was that of a boarding halls and location to the main part wasn’t not great either

Rooms location

Nice surroundings. Overall clean and tidy. Bed and pillows are comfortable. Breakfast is buffet and substantial.

The accomodation is separate from the estate's main building. The rooms are like student accommodation - very basic and low quality decor. Not an expensive stay but still really overpriced for what it is.

The views

All was fine where I stayed.

The cottages at Soloman Mansion had everything needed for a two-person stay. The space was a little tight with large suitcases, but it was a pleasant cottage with a full kitchen. The hotel staff were very helpful and accommodating.

The mattress was a little soft and sagging in the middle and the space was a little tight with two large suitcases

It was a good location for what I needed.

It felt like it had been made to fit, the rooms felt like office blocks, not small but no love. The breakfast buffet was a little to be desired.

Only stayed a few hours, had an emergency and had to go home. But the separate accommodation was clean and tidy. But very noisy, doors banging and people coming up the metal steps mainly.

Beautiful surroundings and lovely staff who were all very accommodating. The price was very good, I will certainly be staying again on my next trip to Tunbridge Wells.

It would have been nice if the bar was open longer. 😉

Pillows smelled taps did not work properly . My husband had to hold toilet seat up to use it shower was poor and bed uncomfortable

Absolutely beautiful building and setting. The staff were really helpful and unobtrusive. There was a wedding the weekend we visited which also was not a distraction at all - in fact it was quite nice and lively without being rowdy! Breakfast was a good standard buffet breakfast which both my son and I enjoyed. Salomons is around a 20-25 minute walk from a really nice pub where we had pizza and a couple of drinks on the night we arrived.

Nothing really. The accommodation we were in (outside of the main building) was a little basic but completely fine given the price and given that you get the lovely hillside and woodland setting included!

I found the Museum, the science Theatre, and the history of the house fascinating, unusual and unexpected!!

Nothing

Beautiful location

Some of The wedding party were extremely noisy coming back to their room and in fact had a big argument outside their hotel room door in the corridor so we were woken very late at night by an arguing couple. Although not the hotels fault perhaps thick doors to the rooms or some sort of sound proofing would stop this.

Lovely setting with very friendly and helpful staff. Extremely relaxing and comfortable stay!

I don't think there's been anything that I haven't liked or was not expecting.

In a lovely setting, great for quiet evening walks

Could not really walk to any nearby facilities as roads narrow and busy

All was good ground's would have been lovely if it wasn't parched

The property is impressive in size but needs maintenance. The accommodation is separate from the main house

The accommodation is tired and needs decoration, the beds are small doubles and there is no water pressure for the showers.

Grounds are spectacular and peaceful, main building and breakfast superb, historical building with interesting free museum

Could have been clearer that actual accommodation is in separate new block which was uncomfortably hot and not at all in keeping with period building. Rooms lacked a refrigerator which was also difficult in the heat.

The room was very clean and comfortable, the grounds were amazing and the staff very really helpful.

Whilst the website did state that there were no catering facilities for evening meals it felt as though there was something missing in terms of possibly having a vending machine for snacks and cold drinks.

Accommodation is very basic, felt like student accommodation. The block had little/no sound insulation so could hear people moving around above. The metal bridge to the first floor was very noisy over our daughters room and they had a broken nights sleep. Breakfast was poor.

Breakfast Sound insulation

Very clean. Majority of staff cheerful and helpful. Main building and grounds beautiful. Breakfast was very good and a lot of choice despite being advertised as continental a full English buffet was available. Bed very comfortable

Directions to property not very visible and is down narrow country lanes and we missed it despite satnav and ended up driving around the whole estate through narrow lanes. Girl on reception was very confused about payment as we had prepaid. Floorboards in room above were VERY creaky although guests were quiet . Main lights did not work..... no glass or container in bathroom for toothbrush? Felt very basic.

Lovation peacful

Great layout, very comfortable space for two people. Nicely decorated.

Bed a little uncomfortable but not terrible.

Mooie locatie op een prachtig landhuis in de regio kent. Ruime kamers met eigen badkamer. Personeel zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Niet goed schoon, ramen moeilijk te openen, gammele bedden, weinig porselein, 2 glazen en 1 gewone mok, wel voldoende borden etc. 1 de douche miste wc papier houder en water kwam onder de douchedeuren door ( kit niet meer vullend) internet viel gewoon uit om 12 uur, tv werkte dan ook niet meer. Ontbijt daar genomen tegen betaling, vond weinig keuze, English breakfast en toast met jam.

Beautifully set. Good location.

The noise from the road and the beds weren’t very comfy. Breakfast overpriced.

Cottage kijkt uit op een muur. Matras geen goede kwaliteit. Enkele mankementen.

Wonderful setting & grounds, and close to Royal Tonbridge Wells and its amenities

There is no restaurant for evening meals and we weren’t aware that there was a wedding on that meant services were restricted

Location, views, staff

Comfortable bed and very clean. Nice breakfast. Friendly staff. Beautiful grounds.

I was in the room on the ground floor by the main entrance door so it was very nosy as people came back to the hotel late at night. Breakfast was chaotic, when I arrived there was next to no food left, the hot water had run out, no cutlery or cups to be found and it was hard to track down staff to ask for anything.

La struttura è immersa nel verde lontano da tutto e da tutti. Ottimo per un soggiorno di relax.

La struttura non ha molti servizi. La zona colazione è dislocata dalla zona notte rendendo necessaria una passeggiata in discesa prima e in salita dopo oppure l'uso di un autoveicolo per chi ha problemi di spostamenti come nel caso di mia moglie.

We were staying for a wedding so it was good for that purpose.

My son requested two cots. He was told that understandably this did not include bedding but he was not told it did not include mattresses so the children were unable to sleep in the cots. The venue were extremely reluctant to help him with this problem or even offer an alternative. A better understanding of the situation and a quick remedy would have been appreciated especially as we were all involved in the wedding.

Udsigten hvor vi fik morgenmad

At blive vækket kl 8 om morgenen af nogle meget højtråbende UK soldater lige under mit værelse vinduer var svært at lukke vinduer for det var stinkende varm på værelset Så skuffende at betale så meget så det ville været rart med refundering Jeg har også skrivende og verbalt klaget

Nice setting

Room was in building more like student accommodation ..very hot and stuffy Room next to entrance to building window blind had to be down and door buzzer annoying Very noisy, banging doors and drunken guests right outside window as was a wedding

The proprietor was amazing and Ash the cat was very welcoming. Great room lovely stay

Nothing

Locatie

Good breakfast friendly staff room basic but clean

Room small basic but clean

Amazing location, friendly staff and good breakfast.

Nothing, all good.

Splendida tenuta immersa nella campagna inglese, in contesto tranquillo e scenografico, dove vengono organizzati anche eventi e matrimoni. Vista la distanza dal centro abitato, è meglio disporre di un'auto. Bellissimo anche il parco, dove sono presenti un bosco e un laghetto. Le camere non si trovano nell'edificio principale, ma in strutture di più recente costruzione, situate a pochi passi. La colazione a buffet presenta una buona scelta e viene servita nell'edificio principale, dove è presente anche un bar. Ci tornerei molto volentieri.

La doccia avrebbe potuto essere pulita meglio, presentava incrostazioni.

We stayed in one of the one bedroom cottages. Well equipped with everything and beautifully decorated.

N/A

Me and my daughter stayed here for the night because of its close proximity to Hever castle. Was blown away by its beauty. The breakfast was lovely and the staff friendly....Expecially the girl behind the bar.

Nothing not to like.

Lovely cottages, very clean and spacious in beautiful grounds with very friendly staff.

The bed wasn’t very comfortable and there was no air con in the main building or cottages.

The location

Room was so hot The roof in bathroom was open and water was dripping in due to rain Thermostat controller wasn't easy to use No response from reception on ringing them within working hrs The shower tap cap was loose In such hot weather property had just 1 small fan and that too only place it could be plugged in was near head which wasn't helpful Couldn't sleep entire night

Location staff clean

Mattress poor quality

Outlook on the estate was beautiful. Staff were helpful. Small historical museum about the estate owners.

Uphill walk to the residential area. Some lack of service when multiple functions co-incide.

De mooie ligging van het hoofdgebouw en diens interieur

We moesten slapen in een bijgebouw . Soort studentenhuizen

bad beds, below average breakfast, thin walls between rooms, ugly & wornout & outdated furniture everywhere, too hot in the rooms (no airco).

The location and grounds were stunning! Breakfast looked ok although I only had coffee and toast.

The accommodation itself let the stay down. The room was very tired and the carpet was very stained. I found it quite noisy , I think there was a herd of elephants staying above us and was woken at 6.30 am by noise outside. But- the bedding was spotless and the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable.

Superb buffet breakfast

The carpet in my room could have been cleaner

The grounds are lovely and peaceful.

The room was very poor and basic - like staying in student accommodation. Extremely outdated. Would have been acceptable but disappointed if paying half the price but definitely a rip off for the price paid.

The grounds are beautiful

The accommodation was small and looked like I was staying in a chalet on a butlins weekender . The pictures advertisement on booking.com are deceiving to what you think you are booking . No staff around apart from a poor young lad on reception desk who's was security but had been placed on front desk on his first day . Do not be fooled by the advertisement or your be sadly disappointed.

Lovely grounds and manor house. The rooms are basic but at the price acceptable. No food available on the Sat, but ordered take away

I loved the buildings, the history, the staff and facilities. It wasn't quirky, it was different. A fascinating museum of the family and their amazing history enthralled me for two hours. Staff were really friendly and chatty. I stayed in their 'student' accommodation and it was quiet, comfortable and all facilities I wanted were there. Breakfast was easy and high quality.

Nothing.

Very relaxed atmosphere, the cottage was well appointed, clean and tidy. Breakfast was excellent too, and delighted that our dog was made very welcome.

Nothing really, we had a great stay😀

breakfast & nature

they start cleaning / making noise before 11am, when it is official checkout time

Breakfast

Accomodation is a bit dated thought I was back at school. No air conditioning when it was really hot.

I liked the grounds. The friendly staff and the gym.

This is a difficult one. I knew the two rooms were separate to the estate but they were cramped and you could hear your surrounding guests. There was also a private event on so we couldn't properly experience the estate. I find it weird how they got planning permission for that accommodation building.

Beautiful setting

No Aircon in the rooms

The setting was totally beautiful

The rooms very very hot when we arrived and overnight but it was the hottest night of the year some guests were noisy

Lovely building and outdoor areas with scenic views for breakfast. The breakfast was also decent

The rooms were roasting with virtually no airflow. The fans were rubbish and barely did anything to resolve the issue. When we asked for more fans that was declined. The accommodation was also not was expected as it looked as if it had come straight off a council estate.

The place is amazing and any person would love it. Breakfast was really good as well. Free parking is appreciated 👍👍 But a 10 square meter room and no air conditioning is a problem for 90 pounds on reduced price. Apart from that everything was good

Read above

Main estate and grounds were beautiful

The rooms were really hot and they were quite noisy

The estate is beautiful. Easy check in and check out.

Beautiful grounds

Detached accommodation. Poor weather made it difficult to enjoy the central area.

Private parking and quiet location . We used the kitchen facilities and found it lovely and warm . A collegue said they were like army barracks but it didnt feel like that at all.

An out door seating space would be nice if the weather had been better. I was overcharged by the hotel but they were quick to reimburse me.

The main building was stunning

The Accomodation looked like a student dorm

Set in a beautiful area with huge grounds. Room was comfortable with the necessary facilities and clean. Breakfast choice is fairly limited but more than adequate and enjoyable.

Beautiful grounds. Free parking. Good breakfast.

Needs two chairs in the bedroom. This would enable one to stay by the dressing table /desk. The other in the corner to use to sit on. The bathroom sink does not hold water. The bathroom could do with maybe a cupboard or another shelf.

Stunning grounds.

Clean

Breakfast was great. Accommodation very convenient, basic and clean. Just a little too much noise with access door and people coming and going along metal gangway late at night.

The Manor House and grounds are stunning

Room is in a block and resembles a holiday camp. Room basic and bland. Rubbish in entrance when we arrived and still there when we left the next day.

Very good excellent a lovely place to stay

The area

Magnifique environnement

Lovely breakfast with a lovely view from the Conservatory

Mouldy shower wasn’t impressive

Comfortable, clean and affordable.

No fridge

Large beautiful grounds. Interesting buildings and history. A comodation was great too

Beautiful estate, well kept and clean. Everything I could wish for: old trees, birds, pond, valley and hills, nature in all ger splendour. Very nice foyer we had an amazing continental breakfast.

The cottage felt like a shoe box, one of the bathrooms bigger than the bedroom itself, very small and claustrophobic for me, bed mattresses uncomfortable as well. Place very clean and welcoming, but a bit too stretched on the actual size. We had 2 bedrooms, which was better suit as 1 bedroom.

the estate and grounds are lovely. staff are very welcoming & friendly. cottages are great value for money. will definitely stay again! only a 10min drive to the city centre/ town.

Comfortable enough. Good view Warm

Quite basic

Great location and nice interior.

No hot water in the property on arrival but quickly fixed by maintenance once informed.

Everything was great and it was a great rural area to stay in, breakfast the room the grounds, wow!!

I know that sadly this is personal taste and is unfortunate but should not in any way detract from an excellent stay - I just found the bed too hard for me sadly!

Excellent value for money. The grounds were amazing and well kept. Staff were cordial and genuinely interested in you and your well being.

My bed was a bit on the small side.

Perfekter Ort für eine Übernachtung auf einem historischen Anwesen und viel Ruhe. Alles ist sehr sauber und das Bad ist relativ groß.

Wir hatten eine glamourösere Atmosphäre beim Frühstück im Herrenhaus erwartet.

Bar staff on visits exceptional and breakfast! Chefs scones Amazing!

The view was amazing and the location of the hotel is perfect! You literally can’t get bored in there! Our favourite hotel ever!

Friendly staff who told us all about the history, we stayed in peony cottage which was lovely & clean, the grounds around the estate are beautiful, we had a full english breakfast in the conservatory with a lovely view of the grounds,short drive to Royal Tunbridge Wells with lots of great shops & restaurants, over all we had a lovely weekend.

Slow service, would have preferred buffet

It had potential to be nice.

One en-suite absolutely stunk! So awful the guest due to stay was unable to stay there. The bed also had dog hair on it. The walls were dirty. The sofa was dirty. The bedding was dirty. Needs attention before letting again.

It was very clean

Nice buffet breakfast fairly priced in sunlit conservatory with great view. Tables for four or fewer. When we needed a table for 5 they prepared one in the dining room.

Beautiful grounds. Full english breakfast. Good shower

Cold water tap trickle (washer?), mattress had large dip at head-end

The cottage that I stayed in was really nice and totally worth the price paid. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

The only thing that could be improved was the response of the staff during breakfast service which was not the fastest. in addition the location was a bit remote.
