Nice hotel. Beds were very comfortable . Breakfast was nice. Car park get very full and with people that don’t know how to park which loses space. No air-con so middle of the summer rooms will be very hot

Really nice room - was concerned that the hotel is on the main road but the rooms are around the back ina separate and modernised block. Beds good, plumbing excellent and breakfast quick and good. All the staff cheerful and pleasant. Nothing not to like

Comfortable superior double room in a part of the hotel separate to the main building. Good breakfast. Well located to explore all Canterbury’s key attractions, restaurants, shops & theatre. Didn’t need to use the car once we parked in the car park &£12 for 24 hours via the ring go app.

Lovely breakfast. We were put in their accessible ground floor room, but unfortunately it was quite noisy due to the outside door being slammed day and night. Staff were lovely, and the cocktails were fabulous. Great location near to the city centre.

Really lovely hotel - very friendly welcome and help with the parking app. Beautiful reception and bar area, with a cosy seating area for enjoying a cuppa or the buy one get one free in happy hour. A very happy blend of old building with modern facilities. Our room (no 18) was very comfortable and had views out over the fairy-light lit patio area - pretty at night. Lovely clean and smart bathroom. Breakfast was very nice (continental and/or English) set within a beautiful dining room. All very convenient too for walking around such a beautiful and interesting city.

Amazing hotel in a great location. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the room was lovely - comfortable bed, nice little extras and an outdoor seating area.
