A marked improvement in service delivery from the last time I stayed here during pre-covid days. It is in walking distance from the Leeds Castle View Restaurant, which is well worth a visit.

Tired hotel but OK.
Hotel a little run down but the basics were fine. Extraordinary decor in places! Evening meal a disappointment. Bar noisy and uncomfortable. Pie was OK but my warm Asian ald was cold. I was told that there were no noodles so vegetables would be substituted. This turned out to be huge chunks of less-than-fresh broccoli, tough and inedible. Whoever was in the kitchen was obviously unengaged and had never tried to eat large chunks of raw broccoli! CAn't give more than three stars for this reason.

Needs a tidy up and a lick of paint, very tired and dated. Dinner service was over an hour, which was disappointing.

Stayed only 1 night. Wouldn’t again.. after a lovely dinner with great staff at the onsite restaurant we decided to take the stairs up to our room on the 3rd floor. There were bouncer type men asking where we were going and they demanded to see our room key before being allowed on the 3rd floor. When in our room the music was loud (but acceptable) but then the loud arguing and what sounded like physical fighting started. I locked the door and put our bags by the door and laid awake scared for hours. In the morning at check out I complained but no one contacted me. If you value your sleep and want to feel safe do not stay here. I’m pretty sure the police came but I was too scared to look out of the windows. Go anywhere else!

We had a so tough stay throughout the night due to the poor wall and noisy voice and sound. The guys came knocking the door speaking. My family felt scary and unsafe there. We'll never visit you.

Staff were very friendly, evening food ok, excellent breakfast with loads of choice. My room was very near to the swimming pool and was uncomfortably warm with a very strong smell of chlorine. Not very pleasant to breathe in all night.

Poor Service
Mercure Maidstone did not fulfill my booking so had to find an alternative at the last minute despite having a confirmation from Hotels.com, which when travelling with children was appalling. Hotel were unhelpful and blamed Hotels.com. Poor service and I can only assume the Mercure had overbooked.

Much to be done
Would have been a great stay, but the following ruined the experience: 1. No air-con: the room was very, very hot and couldn't sleep. The little fan was noisy and sadly couldn't cool down the room. 2. Please replace the old shower curtains and put shower screens instead. Unpleasant to shower with shower curtain clinging to my skin. 3. Room outdated- curtains torn and room require so much tlc. 3. Room and bathroom not very clean , brown stuff coming off the sink , dust on windowsill and bedside tables. 4. Cleaners need to check cupboards and wardrobes to ensure previous guests have not left anything as they was dirty unwanted stuff left by previous guests- not nice at all. Great parking and location though.

One Night Stay
The room itself was very hot as there is no air conditioning, as such we had to have the window open all night to cool the room down. The mattress was also very hard which meant that I did nt have a comfortable sleep. The key card failed twice and we had to return to reception to re-authorise the card to gain access to our room. The car parking was free to hotel users , which was a plus, The breakfast was ok but it was a buffet style which meant that the food was under heaters and some had started to become hard, especially the eggs. For a one night stay this was acceptable. The staff were welcoming and helpful.
