Well located
The hotel is well situated, and has a private parking for 4 cars. We could visit Canterbury by foot without any problem. The place is a bit old, but quite clean.
We had a fabulous stay at the Coach House in their comfortably large family room, where our dog was also welcome. We were hugely grateful they were able to accommodate us after the dreadful VRBO let us down badly (the place we'd booked turned out to be occupied by another guest and the landlord claimed it had been taken off VRBO several months earlier). When we found out at 7.30pm that there was no actual booking available and had to find an alternative ourselves, the Coach House could not have been more friendly or helpful. We were very appreciative and would stay there again if visiting Canterbury. We will certainly NEVER book anything again with the truly terrible VRBO who couldn't have been more useless.
The only slight niggle was that the bathroom wasn't en suite, but across the landing outside the bedroom door. But it didn't appear to be used by anyone else, so not a major problem.

Cheap and cheerful. toilet was across the landing.
I selected the Coach House Canterbury the day of based on reviews and was happy with my selection. It’s close to all the areas to walk around in the city. The room was clean and had an en-suite. Definitely recommend!
I enjoyed my stay in The Coach House, it was comfortable, clean and characterful. Check in and out was done without any face to face interaction, but worked well. I would stay again.
Good location and a nice property. Three weird things: one the toilet was out of the room and upstairs, two the shower was directly in the room which is very weird and uncomfortable and three there were no staff on site at all which was odd. Otherwise good facilities and a comfy bed.
Perfectly good room in a great location. Good price

Very close to town centre (1min walk) Room very good but a bit of confusion whether our toilet/bathroom was ours only (it was, but not clear). Very steep stairs up to room.
Overall very please with stay and would return
Lovely place with kind helpful staff who looked out for our family.
Breakfast wasn't available, but the manager gave us some good tips, and there's plenty of great food options throughout the city.
My stepson loved it, especially the big bathroom linked to the family room we used.
And our dog felt at home, so was very relaxed.
Its a perfect location for access to the centre, but keep in mind if you're a light-sleeper during a weekend as it can get noisy outside late at night.
