Fodor's Expert Review Hotel du Vin

Crescent Rd., Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN1 2LY, England

An elegant sandstone house dating from 1762 has been transformed into a chic boutique hotel with polished wood floors and luxurious furnishings. Oriental rugs give public rooms a warmth that is both intimate and grand, and guest rooms are minimalist and modern, with luxurious linens and pampering bathrooms. The Burgundy Bar stocks a fine selection of French wines while, in the bistro, the contemporary menu changes daily but is strong on creamy soups, crisp salads, and grilled steaks.
