The Stone Court Hotel on Lower Stone Street in central Maidstone is one of those rare places which allows guests to fully enjoy a building dating from the 16th century. A Tudor building, it was once the property of the wealthy Sackville family, relatives of Queen Elizabeth I, and was later converted into a residence for Crown Court Judges.

Respectful of the hotel's rich legacy and old world charm, the exterior has been sympathetically cared for to afford a true sense of historic prominence and uniqueness. While the interior has been refurbished to extend every modern comfort and luxury, great effort has been taken to ensure that the fundamental warmth and beauty of the magnificent building pervades every area of the hotel.
Few pleasures are comparable to enjoying a night in such a remarkable Listed Building and sitting at the large stone fireplace beneath the wooden beams which have travelled through generations into the 21st century.

All of the rooms have been furnished and decorated in rich, natural tones with an emphasis on warm wooden features, reflecting the implicit style and sophistication of the building's heritage.
