Hotel berhampiran Royal Victoria Place, Tunbridge Wells

There aren’t that many hotel options in Tunbridge Wells and this hotel, albeit on the edge of town has parking. It’s a bit dated, looks like a retirement home, but clean and the room was of a good size. Breakfast was excellent, lots of options in the buffet. I didn’t use the bar and there was a function that finished at midnight during one of the (weekend) nights I stayed. There was noise from that but it didn’t bother me that much and the music finished in the outdoor area on time.

Great find, very high quality rooms with good security etc The hotel serves great food and the inclusive breakfast is very good with wide choice. There is a large car park with electric charging points. The staff are very helpful and informative. The bar has a good range of beers and real ales etc

My wife and I are both new to the game of golf, so booked a two-day tuition break at Dale Hill, with their resident professional, Chris Roberts. If you're in the same boat as us, and you really want to improve your game with a kind, patient and excellent coach, I can thoroughly recommend this break. Chris was fantastic across both days. The first is very intensive, with five hours of coaching covering a number of areas including driving, irons, swing stance, chipping, putting, and even bunker work. We were meant to have a five-hole playing lesson on the Ian Woosnam Course, but due to heavy rain that was postponed until the second day. But in a way that really benefitted us, as we were able to put in more work on things like swing consistency and using the driver etc. My wife and I both felt instant benefits from this. I'm topping the ball way less than I used to, and I feel I'm hitting it further as well. Chris is a great coach, who can very quickly identify areas of concern in your swing and set-up, and remedy them quickly. We'd work with him again in a heartbeat. The next day, we finally did the five-hole playing lesson, and again he was great. Very hands-on, very encouraging, very articulate about what he wants us to do. I even managed to par the difficult 17th hole, and had a birdie chance which I narrowly missed. I feel like my game's come on in leaps and bounds. And Chris wasn't the only wonderful member of staff we encountered. The bar staff/waiting staff in the Orangery and Wealden View Restaurant were wonderfully helpful. But we wanted to give a special shout-out to Darcy in the Club Shop, who was genuinely one of the kindest and most helpful people we have encountered on our travels. Bubbly and ebullient, she was tremendously generous with her time and expertise. She's just started a coaching course, we've learned, so hopefully we'll be learning with her as well in a few years! As for the hotel itself, the tuition break package comes with a one-night stay in a Superior Room. We really liked the room -- it was large, spacious, and clean, with a lovely view of the 18th fairway on the Dale Hill Course (aka Old Course). Nice, comfortable bed as well, and a lovely, fast-filling bath. If there are issues, they are slight. The TV in the room could be a lot bigger, and there could be more USB/charging points, and maybe even a Bluetooth speaker or radio. Some of the fixtures and fittings are looking a little worn, and could maybe do with a refresh and upgrade. But there was nothing that bothered us. We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay, and also really enjoyed the food (a dinner is also included in the package, as is lunch!) in the Wealden View Restaurant. And the breakfast buns that they offer are the size of your head. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed it, and are already planning to go back next year. When, hopefully, we might upgrade to the Intermediate Coaching package!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to have a Carers Spa Day which this hotel offers through Care for Carers. We had a blissful day or Rest & Relaxation, swam in the calm, quiet pool and enjoyed an absolutely delicious lunch. We then had amazing treatments, mine was done by Beatrice who not only left me feeling rejuvenated by her energy and warmth gave me the pick up I really needed. The food was outstanding, and the chef adapted it to gluten free for me. All the staff were welcoming and friendly. This is the calm, intimate, peaceful spa I've been to. Thank you so much for proving us with the time out that we needed.

Check in was great lovely airy hotel, room in good condition bathroom looks a little tired not often you see a bath and sower in one these days. Beer selection is good £1 more than normal prices. Was a little disappointed with the Mac and cheese, tasted great just wasn’t much! Breakfast was good plenty to go at! Having gone to use the shower I found that it didn’t work correctly so I had to have a bath which on closer inspection wasn’t the cleanest I’d seen. Overall a good hotel with extremely friendly staff who can’t do enough for you.
