Cheap, old and just only just acceptable
Nice hostess, excellent breakfast, clean beds. Room small, shower hit / miss (eiether too hot or too cold). Shower / bathroom very dated. Could have been cleaner. Bathroom mirror from a fairground. TV not secure on wall, terrible reception. Plug sockerts with missing screws. One not secure. Could not connect to wifi. Overall, very outdated, lived in (could gave been cleaner) but nice hostess and great breakfast. Cheap...

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend staying with Joanne at the New Kent we felt very well looked after by the lovely host . The New Kent is situated in a nice quiet area on the north shore but only 100m from the prom and a tram stop . I hope we will be staying again soon.

One of the best if not THE best
Amazing place to stay. Very well kept with friendly staff. Amazing breakfast. Tram stop very close by (highly recommended the saver ticket) so no problem getting around and much cheaper than taxis. Stayed at the New Kent twice so far and plan on staying again. It really is a pleasant stay,away from all the hustle and bustle of town, yet so easily accessible.

Few days away
Room was basic but functional. Bed and furniture were only adequate. Breakfast was nice but no choice of white or brown bread. No time to eat cereal as cooked breakfast came very quickly.

Cheap Stay
Visiting relatives for a few days so we wanted something clean and cheap, and that is what we got. The owners were very helpful, the rooms are kept spotlessly clean, and the breakfast was very nice. We got what we paid for and perhaps more besides. Parking was available after 7 on the street outside for free or there is a large car park across the street that charges £7 for every 24 hours.

Enjoyable stay
Had a lovely stay the owners of the hotel were very welcoming and friendly. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was one of the best breakfasts we have ever had at a B & B and nothing was too much trouble - the young lad who served us at breakfast was very polite and friendly and always happy to help. We will be booking again this year to revisit during the illuminations. Thanks for a great stay 😊

A friendly family-run hotel, which offered comfortable and clean accommodation, a nice homely lounge and a good breakfast. The hotel was approximately a 20 minute stroll from the main attractions and town centre, but we made light work of this with our bikes. I would recommend this hotel, which for the money offered great value.
