Summer Starts Here
From the moment you arrive at One Warwick Park Hotel, you’ll find a calm and comfortable space designed to help you relax and enjoy your break. Our rooms combine thoughtful modern design with the character of a historic building, creating a setting that feels both stylish and inviting.
Just steps from The Pantiles, you’ll be perfectly placed to explore the best of Tunbridge Wells—think cobbled streets, independent shops, open-air cafés, and a welcoming community feel.
And when you’re ready to explore further, some of Kent’s most beautiful countryside and attractions are only a short drive away.
Explore The Best of Kent – From Town to Country
Tunbridge Wells is perfectly positioned for discovering the wonders of Kent and Sussex. Spend your mornings strolling through The Pantiles, where alfresco cafés buzz with life and live jazz plays in the sun. Dip into designer boutiques, art galleries, or take tea in Georgian surroundings.
A visit to Royal Tunbridge Wells wouldn’t be complete without a stroll through The Pantiles—a charming Georgian colonnade just moments from One Warwick Park Hotel. Known for its historic architecture and lively atmosphere, it’s home to cafés, galleries, and boutique shops. At the heart of The Pantiles lies the Chalybeate Spring, where visitors once came to “take the waters.” It’s this very spring that gave the town its spa town status back in the 17th century.
For live music lovers, The Forum is a must. Once a Victorian public toilet (really!), it’s now one of the UK’s most beloved independent music venues. Hosting everything from emerging local acts to big names in the indie and alternative scene, The Forum brings a vibrant energy to the Tunbridge Wells cultural calendar, and is only a 5-minute walk from One Warwick Park Hotel!
Day Trips On Your Doorstep
One Warwick Park Hotel is perfectly positioned for summer adventures, offering effortless access to some of Kent’s most stunning destinations. Here are two must-visit places to add to your itinerary during your stay with us:
Salomons Estate – A Countryside Escape with Historic Elegance
Just ten minutes from your hotel room lies the grand and peaceful Salomons Estate—a Victorian mansion set within 36 acres of gardens and woodland. Take a morning stroll through the grounds (furry friends included!), sip coffee on the sun-soaked terrace, or explore the fascinating on-site museum. Salomons Estate also hosts afternoon teas, perfect for enjoying under the sunshine before returning to your room at One Warwick Park Hotel with a camera roll full of sun-dappled memories.
Bewl Water – Adventure Just 20 Minutes Away
Craving open skies and lakeside adventures? Look no further than Bewl Water, the largest stretch of open water in the South East, just 20 minutes from One Warwick Park Hotel in Tunbridge Wells.

Families can enjoy the soft play area, laser tag, and the adventure playground, while couples might opt for a peaceful picnic beside the shore or a pedalo paddle for two. It’s the perfect way to bring a splash of excitement to your summer getaway.
Dine, Unwind, Repeat
