Situated in a convenient location close to shopping. The room we stayed in was very spacious, had good facilities including a comfortable bed and quite clean, although the view wasnt great and the WiFi signal was awful. Nicely decorated in the foyer and reception areas but the dining area for breakfast in the morning was quite dated and dark. The breakfast overall was alright with some options but not very substantial and the bar food was a bit expensive. Would stay again but suggest going elsewhere for food.

Carpark needs a good clean up which would give a great look and not too expensive. This should at least be a weekly occurrence. Our room was a newly refurbished room which was very good and two goon nights sleep were had. Breakfast was excellent

Stayed for 3 nights. It was a fabulous hotel to stay in. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The room was big and luxurious, recently re-furnished. It was in the heart of Cantebury everything in walking distance to the Cathedral and town centre. Would definitely stay again and would highly recommend this hotel.

Hotel smart enough but odd bits need attention. Gardens rather overgrown. Toilet door didn’t shut properly. Found sound carried rather through bedroom walls! All staff were perfect though.

We stayed for two nights whilst visiting Canterbury and were very glad we had chosen this hotel. It was undergoing some refurbishment whilst we were there but this didn’t affect us in any way. We had an Executive room which appeared to have been recently refurbished - it was large, clean and very comfortable. There were masses of electricity sockets, USB sockets next to the bed, a large safe, a kettle, an iron and ironing board. Breakfast was very good with a wide choice of cold food together with a menu of hot food cooked to order - my husband had the kippers which were excellent! There was a reasonably sized car park where we felt very happy to leave our car for the duration of our stay. The city centre is about a 15 minutes walk away and, as well as the sights, there are lots of good restaurants there. We would definitely stay there if we came to Canterbury again and would highly recommend it.

Not terrible, just not very good
Does what it needs to. It's a little bit too far out of town unless you drove, but not too bad - 20min walk max. Clearly once a grand place and recently re-done with some snazzy gadgets. But the blinds didn't cover the windows and the curtains barely exist, the Aircon is very temperamental/quite aggressive, the TV speaker plays in the bathroom too which is cool when it works but in our one night stay worked for about five minutes (most of the time just the one in the bathroom worked, often neither speaker worked), breakfast is a bit basic, and worst of all theres no signal and the WiFi just doesn't work. Appreciate it's not number one for everyone but these days the WiFi not working (and there being no signal) it just makes everything so much harder. Pay another £15 and stay in the Premier Inn, or another £30 and stay in the Hampton - they're both better.

Great location, dated character building
We loved the power of the shower. The hotel itself is set in an old building, and it showed with the creakiness of floorboards and thinness of walls, meaning you could hear conversations and movements in hallway and neighbouring rooms. Nice and close to the city centre (15 min walk to centre of high street) and good amount of onsite parking, which is a rare feature in Canterbury.
