A modern room with a great location and, in this room anyway, a really nice view of the cathedral. Staff is also very good and I enjoyed the breakfast.

Lovely modern hotel in a great location. The room was a generous size. The bathroom had a huge shower.
Breakfast was included and was excellent - especially the scrambled eggs! Yum!
Staff were really kind and professional.
There’s a good bar, a bit pricy - but that’s to be expected.
Parking is discounted to £25 and only a two minute walk away.
Everything in Canterbury is so close - it’s an absolutely lovely city. This hotel is the perfect spot.

Nice stay overall with clean rooms and a good location. The only issue was the shower — the glass screen couldn’t stop water splashing onto the bathroom floor, leaving it very wet and a bit dangerous after use
