Trivelles Rochester

Third time of staying at this hotel. TV wasn’t working properly and despite trying to fix it to no avail, we were moved to another room and given the choice of what room we wanted that was available.

I received a friendly welcome on arrival. Check-in was quick. The room was spacious, and quirky in its layout. There were plenty of plug spckets in the room including a usb socket close to the bed for charging my phone. I was in a room on the 3rd floor, and theres no lift, so traipsing up and down all the stairs was frustrating. The room was clean, but dated in appearance. The hotel is ideally located a few min walk from the train station and centre of town. My room was facing the train station so it was quite noisy, and theres no views from the windows.

Very helpful staff, clean rooms, a little small but very comfortable and close for the bus into Grain for work

Been 3 times love the place and the staff rooms are amazing can't wait to go back

This hotel is really a B&B, so don't expect a chain hotel's vibe or amenities. That said, I would recommend this a budget option. The rooms are small but clean and the beds were comfortable. You will have to walk up a couple flights of stairs as there is no elevator. We did not use the continental breakfast on offer. The owners kept us supplied with tea and coffee for the kettle in the room. The two gentlemen were very nice and accommodating, and allowed us to store our luggage prior to check-in. While the area initially appears sketchy, it is actually a commercial/residential neighborhood in a very convenient location. The Strood rail station is a block away (trains into London), and there is an Aldi about a 5 minutes walk and a shopping center (M&S, Poundland, Starbucks) about 10 minutes away. Then you can walk across the beautiful bridge to the Rochester Castle, the High Street (LOTS of shops and restaurants) and the Cathedral in 10 more minutes. This hotel is a good *budget* option to use as a home base for the Rochester/Chatham area.

Very reasonably priced, comfortable bed and nice shower. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Good location near the train station and a short walk to Rochester Castle. Only negative, just wish we could have opened the window a little more to let cool air in at night, it was unseasonably hot weather so wouldn’t be a problem most of the time. Overall recommend this hotel.

Clean and tidy room with tea and coffee. Staircase leading up to the rooms had dirty carpet.

Room needed a coat of paint, tap was too small to fill a kettle, toilet seat was broken.

Good

At the back of Strood station, somewhat unpleasant area but fine once you're in the hotel. Aldi nearby (2-3min walk) and generally ok. The hotel itself is tired but they've cleaned it to within an inch of its life, so that was good. No bar or restaurant & must use the lift. Reception people could barely speak English but they were polite enough. The room floorboards creaked a lot. A LOT.
