Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives with clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a beautiful location. However, there are areas for improvement in dining options and the described secret garden. The potential for something special is evident.
The hotel was absolutely beautiful, with amazing grounds. The rooms could have been a little cleaner, as they were a bit dusty with some pretty epic cobwebs in one corner. It's great if you have dogs to take along, but find somewhere else for dinner.
The hotel's rooms were gorgeous, a lot bigger than expected, and wonderfully clean, with a stunning design and a great hot tub. However, they could have been a little cleaner, with some dust and cobwebs in one corner. The service was extremely professional and friendly, seamlessly blending rustic character with modern comforts. The location offers a quiet trip away with beautiful views of farmlands while being close to town amenities for entertainment. The dining experience was lovely, although the menu was somewhat limited, and the local fish dish was exceptional. Overall, if you're seeking a relaxing weekend in Kentish countryside, Elvey offers a warm welcome with fantastic contemporary accommodation and impeccable food.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms had a lot of character although not very soundproof, yet they were spacious and comfortable. The hotel was lovely and quiet, and definitely not haunted. The service provided by the staff was amazing, they were genuinely caring and friendly. The location, set in a beautiful countryside backdrop, was perfect and easy to get to. Overall, a wonderful stay with some minor drawbacks.
Staying in the Broadstairs Suite at Elvey Farm was a real treat with its beautiful and tastefully decorated spacious area offering wonderful countryside views. The wow factor of the room, including thoughtful touches like an iPod player/radio, made the stay truly special. However, some service aspects, like the neglected garden, were a bit disappointing.
