Reviews and Ratings
The Royal Oak Hotel is a mixed bag. While the rooms aren't in the main hotel, I wouldn't have much to complain about overall. The need to learn about customer service is evident, but the location is excellent for exploring Sevenoaks High Street and Knole Park.
Staying on the second floor was a bit challenging, but overall an enjoyable experience with cool temperatures at night. The service was friendly and efficient, although there were issues with reported faults. The location offers a lovely atmosphere for drinks and dining, with modern amenities and the opportunity to catch up on news with satellite channels. The dining experience was a mix of humor and limitations, and the facilities provided a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms but would benefit from a general revamp. The service was fine, with a friendly front of house. The location is convenient for walking into town. The dining experience was decent but not exceptional.
The hotel seems to have some mixed aspects. The rooms are quite poor, dusty, and in need of refurbishment, especially in the separate building. While the service was friendly and helpful, there were moments of indifference like during check-in. The location is convenient for visiting Sevenoaks, but some parts appear shabby. Overall, there are improvements needed in various areas.
