Sandhurst Road. This is a slight exception to the roads in this part of Orpington, which are generally named after public schools, which Sandhurst is not, even if it is still an educational establishment. This lower section of the road has a different character from the upper section - see 1762684.

The check-in is a little weird having 2 receptionists in a self-check-in place. Also my booking was cancelled with no notice, but they did reinstate it - fortunately. The hotel and room is central and low cost - it had all you really need. No frills.

This hotel is lovely. In a really convenient location, out of the way enough to feel quiet, but only a 5 minute walk to tube. Staff are friendly, breakfast was decent, room was lovely and had great views.
