The Russell Hotel
The Russell Hotel is a good place to stay very close to Royal Tunbridge Wells amenities and attractions. We stayed here because we were going on the Spa Valley Railway Cheese Train on the Saturday afternoon and the hotel was an close enough to walk everywhere.

Great staff
The hotel/rooms are very dated and tired but……the bed linen, towels and bathroom were clean and fresh. The staff are amazing, friendly, chatty and went above and beyond to accommodate our stay. Great breakfast too

Highly recommend
I would highly recommend staying at the Russell Hotel. It is situated just minutes from the town centre. The staff are warm and welcoming and helpful. The room and bathroom were both spotless. The bed was comfortable and made with crisp, cotton sheets. I enjoyed a good nights sleep. Breakfast was beautifully cooked and delicious.

Nice cosy English hotel.
Third time using this hotel, staff are friendly and eager to help. The property is a typical old English hotel with no elevator but has a cosy feel of which my family enjoyed on all three stays.

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasant stay
Room was clean, comfortable and had basic amenities. Rooms are aged and look tired but this really does not bother me. Breakfasts and parking were included in the room rate and they both were good. Friendly staff.

Good VFM accommodation in the area with a great breakfast.
Mark, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

This is a lovely old Victorian building, quote central in Tunbridge Wells, the rooms were small, but clean and warm. The staff were all very nice and friendly, accommodating and helpful. The breakfast was good, nothing fancy but nice nonetheless. The bed wasn't very comfortable and the TV was tiny. The whole place seemed somewhat faded and a bit tatty, definitely very dated (the bathrooms and furnishings especially), but it was adequate for a couple of nights.

I travel a lot for work and need to stay in a a variety of places usually on a budget. I really liked this hotel. It’s a traditional hotel with all the facilities you can ask for. Staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean & tidy. It was an all round pleasant stay. I’d definitely book again.

Was a 1 night stay while visiting relations a short walk away. Was convenient for us. Nice place,
Helen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Convenient location
Very convenient for shops and the train station. Friendly and very helpful staff. Parking on site. "Faded glory" perhaps describes the building best, old fashioned decor, bar and breakfast room functional but not inviting. If you have any mobility needs, even just an aching knee, mention it when booking as we were given a room at the top of the building accessed by 60 stairs..

Good property for staying in the centre of town. Our room was a very good size and well equipped with a small kitchen. Clean. The breakfast was adequate for my husband but little choice for a gluten free vegan.
