Little get away

Very nice rooms, lovely small touches like leaving the radio on for when you go into your room. Makes a difference. Only two faults were: only one towel in room and the toilet look brush wasn’t clean. Will happily stay again however.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Royal Wells. It's in a great position above the town centre with really nice bar and restaurant areas and a very comfortable room. We will definitely stay here again if we are visiting Tunbridge Wells.
