what i /we found is that the area didn't have a "breakfast" before 930 am ish. Which for the pilgrimage didn't fare well with the 4 yr old . Nothing personal to the hotel as they do breakfast on the weekends.

It's a beautiful house and our room was spacious, clean and cosy. It's a peaceful area right on the North Downs Way path, so we were able to continue our hike without much of a detour. The breakfast was fantastic too and the host was really friendly and helpful!

We stayed for the Sweeps Festival, a celebration of traditional dance and music which sadly was spoilt a little by weather on one day, but if the indoor events don’t appeal there is a variety of bars and places to eat and alternative activities are a visit to a thousand year old castle and the 2nd oldest Cathedral in the UK, Guildhall Museum or a short drive away there is Chatham Historical Dockyard, and Royal Engineers museum.

Castle and cathedral are first class.
Castle and cathedral are first class. Eastgate House very interesting. Good Italian restaurant and plenty of other choices. Everywhere within easy walking distance. Whole High Street noisy on Saturday night. Guildhall Museum, Restoration House and Huguenot Museum shut for our visit. Tourist Information Office shut downAAnonymous - 10Scored 10
Rochester is very charming.
Rochester is very charming. The High Street is very lovely with lots of quality second hand shops, if this is your thing. I was absolutely mesmerized by the castle. Well worth climbing the stairs all to the top, especially on a sunny day, the view is amazing. (check for opening times). The cathedral is really beautiful, do go inside if you are there. You can just go in and explore the cathedral or do a guided tour (also check for opening times). The town has a very rich history. You could also choose do do a walking trail along the river. The Royal Crown Pub has a lot of character and the food was really tasty.

I think some money needs to be spent updating the decor of the hotel and rooms. The room rate is inexpensive and hotel is in a good location but it is looking a bit worn. There was a crack in the top corner of room near the front window of our room and given the connection of the hotel with Charles Dickens, the hotel undersells itself. There was also loud music coming from the bar downstairs in same hotel complex.JohnUnited Kingdom - 2.0Scored 2.0

Rochester is great The Royal Victoria and Bull Hotel is not somewhere anyone should trust to stay. Where was the staff? Why was the gates locked? Why was there not a message on the gate or at reception? How is this hotel allowed to remain in relation to health and safetytt?

Different places and things appeal to different people. OK.
Different places and things appeal to different people. OK. But I'm more than happy to put in a word for Rochester, It was, until 1998 when "Medway" (population 250,000 was created from Rochester, Chatham, Strood, Gillingham and Rainham, all today more or less contiguous) a historic and important small City. Now Rochester is just a "Town", which seems frankly ludicrous. Population only 60,000 and they have problems. The High Street includes far too many Charity Shops, although also some beautiful and historic buildings. Too close to London. But Rochester also has the second oldest Cathedral in England, and still largely Norman Architecture rather than Canterbury's huge late Gothic. Rochester also boasts the tallest and best preserved Norman castle keep in both England and France. Then there are all the links with Charles Dickens and much else besides. And then the Chatham Historic Dockyard, worth a day's time of anyone interested in British history and only a few miles from Rochester. I note the 2021 Lonely Planet Great Britain (page 162) manages just over 2 column inches on Chatham Dockyard. And that's it. Not even a mention of Rochester or "Medway" in the index. That, in my book, is all you need to know about "Guide Books"!
