The hotel offers a mixed experience with some positives and negatives. The rooms, while dark with dated decor, were adequate and matched the online pictures. However, there were drainage issues in the bathroom. The service was attentive, with a helpful refund and quick resolution of billing problems. The location is central in Faversham, a vibrant town with traditional appeal. The dining was top-notch with a knowledgeable chef and local produce, yet facilities could use some improvements.

I had such a charming stay at The Sun Inn! The rooms were tastefully decorated with old charm and good facilities, although the noise from the pump system was a bit loud. The service was very attentive, and the staff had a warm and friendly attitude. The location in the quiet old part of the town was perfect, though a bit of a hassle in terms of accessibility. The dining experience was good, but there were some service issues. Overall, a lovely traditional inn with excellent ambiance.

The hotel, located in a remarkable historic town, offers rooms with little touches like a toothbrush and hot chocolate. While understanding the lack of daily servicing, the top floor location in a historic building impacts the shower's water pressure and heat retention. The atmosphere is lovely with plenty to do nearby.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms are not serviced daily, which we appreciated, and are filled with thoughtful touches like a toothbrush and hot chocolate. The historic building's top-floor setting does affect the shower's water pressure and heat retention at times. However, the atmosphere is cozy and there are many activities to enjoy in the town.

Service

8.0

The service was friendly and accommodating. Staff were proactive in addressing issues, like arranging for door cleaning and painting. They made our stay enjoyable despite current restrictions. The location offers free parking overnight and convenient paid options during the day.

Location

9.0

The hotel's location is excellent as a base for exploring Faversham and Kent. While in the town center on a quiet pedestrian street, it's just a short walk from convenient parking on Thomas Road. The setting provides a perfect escape but is slightly overpriced.

Dining

8.0
