My girlfriend and I booked a two-night stay to the Mercure Hotel in Maidstone, with a view to taking full advantage of the Sebastian Coe Health Spa (which had received fairly consistent reviews of 4 Stars). Having shelled out over £400 + extras, we could be forgiven for expecting a half decent experience. However, a number of problems occurred that... More

Stayed here in may 2011 for my birthday, my boyfriend ordered us champagne and chocolates which were not in our room on arrival which ruined the surprise a bit. The rooms were standard, had a nice view of the grounds but the bathroom I found a bit shabby. All in all was a comfortable stay, but not really worth the... More

We went to the hotel in late december for an evening out . It was the james bond live and let die night . The whole evening was fantastic . The food was excellent and the disco and singer were very very good . Every one was dressed up to the nines and having a very good time . Would... More

The Mercure Maidstone is easy to find, located just of junction 8 of the M20. Guests journeying in to Maidstone in the morning rush hour will find the A20 slow and confusing, butt this cannot be said to be the fault of the hotel! The hotel is not, externally, the prettiest of buildings, but the interior is reasonably well-maintained. The... More

I stayed at this hotel last weekend, and it was fantastic from checkin to checkout. All the staff were very polite and I couldn't fault the service. The breakfast buffet was well organised and food was lovely. Was great value for money, room was very clean. Will deffinately visit again soon More

The New Years Eve Gala Ball was an excellent night from the reception, through the delicious meal, to the first class entertainment. I cannot remember ever encountering such friendly staff. They really seemed to be enjoying the event as much as we were. Having been to very good tribute nights here, my expectations were high and all were exceeded. More

It's been this and its been that, and it is currently 'Mercure' but old timers will always call it the Great Danes (as per the Crossroads era although Benny was thankfully absent) and indeed two Great Dane statues are still positioned near the reception. Anyway, we stayed here years ago when the children were young and it was excellent then... More

My wife and I stayed at this hotel as we had an early start on a Channel Tunnel Shuttle. It’s very convenient for that as it’s just off the motorway. As noted in other reviews this used to be a Ramada Jarvis and is now a Mercure thanks to some signs and stickers, it’s going to take some work. Check... More

I organised our company away day there when it was still a Ramada. Facilities were very good with rooms of all sizes. We were a small group and the room we had was just right for us. If you forget something then they seem to have a spare of most things. Rooms were clean, warm and comfortable, the health club... More
