Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The location is PERFECT! We were right in the middle of everything surrounded by restaurants, pubs and shopping. The cathedral was less than a 10 minute walk away. Our room was a large size considering we were in Europe. I can't think of any better place to stay while visiting Canterbury.
A pleasant place to stay, but a little expensive, comparatively. Nonetheless, comfortable with pleasant staff. Very limited first-come parking at £36 for two nights seemed excessive so I used a find-a-parking-place web site to locate a parking space nearby for £11 for two nights instead.
A comfortable clean hotel in great location for visiting Canterbury. We certainly stay there again as it was good value for money, breakfast was excellent with a really good selection of food. Easy walking distance of all the main attractions and the cathedral only two minute walk away.

Poor
Neighbouring property playing extremely loud music until 3am, with loud machine noise internally for the rest of the night. Overlooking an area full of rubbish and looked like a dump!
Shower broken with no hot water… not 4 star experience!
Lovely place comfortable room. Very Clean only thing that lets this place down is the breakfast.
Was expecting breakfast to be a little more than just full english. There are no cereals, fruit available to help yourself instead they charge extra for it. Plus the tea and coffee wasnt very forth coming.
Very comfy beds. Nice size bathroom.
Lovely breakfast service. Right in the middle of Canterbury
