About

The Gordon House Hotel is a 17th-century property located directly opposite Rochester Cathedral, offering 13 traditionally styled bedrooms and two function rooms suited for small business gatherings.

The hotel includes a bar and lounge area, providing an in-house option for casual meetings or post-event drinks. While the building reflects its historic character and lacks modern accessibility features, it offers private parking and a quiet, comfortable stay with blackout curtains and spacious rooms, supporting focused work and restful overnight accommodations.
