Dont's accept the yacht experience

The hotel called 3 or 4 hours before my arrival to offer the "boat experience" at no extra cost. This, was explained to me" is the opportunity of spending the night on a yacht. Upon arrival, I was shawn to the back of the hotel where the "yacht" was actually on in the water, and down a ramp. The use of a shower was at street level, toilet (no toilet paper) had a pump to flush, every minute a 2 second rumble from the generator shook the boat.. there were no other vacancies, which explained why I was offered the "boat experience". I left the hotel and stayed elsewhere

Lovely place to stay.

Needed a stay over for a friends birthday party, was recommended the Queen Philippa, I can understand why, it ticked all the boxes along with such friendly, helpful staff. Only slight negative which didn’t affect me was the small parking area, but to counter that they do have electric hook up which I didn’t need, but worth pointing out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and if the need arises would stay there again.

Excellent value for money

Everyone at Queen Phillippa were so friendly & helpful. The room was very comfortable and there was plenty of refreshments available. Breakfast, which was excellent is served until 11am which made it even more relaxing. It was true value for money. We finitely stay again next time we’re in the area.

Comfortable hotel B&B in historic Queenborough

The Queen Phillippa Hotel is in a good location for visiting Elmley National Nature Reserve (10 mins drive away) and about a10mins walk down Queenborough High Street to the seawall next to The Swale. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, there was a good choice of food for breakfast, and our evening meal at Jacey's Bistro (located in the hotel) was very good. At the rear of the hotel there's an attractive courtyard garden right next to Queenborough Creek. Our room was spotlessly clean. The only negative was that the bedroom was rather small, and the ensuite bathroom only just big enough to turn around in. Overall we were very happy with our stay at the Queen Phillippa and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Isle of Sheppey.
