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

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. Happy hour was a bonus and everything was in short walking distance (including the train station). Highly recommended, we'll definitely be back.
