Would stay again
Pros:

Great location. Clean comfortable rooms and great breakfast

Cons:

Such a shame it is not as advertised. Unfortunately the pub had been raided and shut down many months ago so was desolate. Definitely needs a good clean up and lick of paint

Probably should have read the reviews before staying
Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

Hotel extremely tired with broken spindles on the staircase (which was very very steep). Shower unit very mouldy and whilst pressure was good, there wasn’t a useable attachment for it on the wall. Room smelt off and only available plug socket was an extension cord under the bed.
Walls were scuffed.

Avoid at as all costs. They should not be taking bookings and should not be on the “booking” website until it’s been tot
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

No Bar, no restaurant. Found out it had be closed down because of drugs and violence. No parking. Where I parked at the back, I was told I would have had my wheels nicked.

With few other choices, it’s ok and location is central
Pros:

Central location, comfortable bed, clean sheets, good hot water and not bad value for money.

Cons:

We stayed in room 1 on the first floor - it was fine with a good en-suite. I am just repeating what others have said regarding the negatives. The hotel is very tired and shabby in places. Mostly the room was clean, but could have done with a little more dusting and the windows looked like they had never been cleaned.
Others mentioned a loud bar/disco on a Saturday - the downstairs was closed on our visit, so I thought “great, a quiet night!” But no, some crazy person was roaming the corridors with thumping feet, slamming doors and shouting from time to time until 4am. It didn’t sound like any kind of domestic abuse going on so I ignored it and quickly went back to sleep in between the episodes. Besides, I didn’t feel safe opening my door to investigate as it was obviously a disturbed individual.

Pros:

Location, surrounding facilities,

Cons:

Argument in the night that woke me up, someone banging or kicking a door. Very disturbing as I was there alone.

Convenient location
Pros:

There is nothing Royal about this hotel but it is in a good location a short walk from the station and the beach. It was warm and the beds comfortable so did everything we needed. The bar was closed which ment it was nice and quiet.
Recommend the Island fish bar for dinner.

Cons:

It is tatty and in desperate need of renovation. But the price is appropriate for the condition it’s in.

Pros:

In the very centre of town, and still it's very peaceful and quiet. Easy to reach, and close to all the amenities. My usual stay when in Sheerness, the hotel has everything I need. The beds are very comfortable, the bathroom has plenty of hot water, the shower works really well, the heating does a really good job at keeping the room warm when outside is very cold, and the tea and coffee making facility is a nice welcome. The staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel is slowly being improved and looks better every time. If one prefers the anonymous perfection of a big hotel chain, then perhaps this is not it, but it has lots of unique personality, character, and great value for money.

Łazienka. :I
