The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The bar area was very busy and had a great selection of drinks. The rooms and the bar area was absolutely immaculate. Although the single room was small it was adequate for our stay. The location is next to the temple and only 8 mins walk from the rail station. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend the place to others.
Breakfast would have been great but there is plenty of coffee shops and cafes a short walk away.

At our arrival, we were welcomed by a very kind and friendly lady who showed us the room and gave all the information we needed about Gravesend. The room I got was large (with two windows!); the bathroom was also large and practical. The bed is fluffy, and so are the bathroom towels—I believe I've never seen the towels so fluffy!

Nice clean room, really friendly people, would recommend it.
Not so much didn’t like, but would have loved breakfast to be available. Perhaps if being picky, could have done with extra electrical sockets and USB phone charging points.

Location as walking distance to all relatives. Very friendly staff. Most of all the room was clean and modern.
Parking can be an issue as it's a pub, so it's not guaranteed to get parking. Though the owner does keep his car on cat park and happily moved it so we could park.
