6/10 Good

I booked a single room that was enough forward me. The carpeted areas on corridors and at least in my room need attention- there were visible stairs in various places. The bed was very comfortable, but the base was quite stained. Lovely big towel and a bath- but nowhere to hang the towel to dry as no healing/ towel rails. Warm room with tea and coffee provided with biscuits. Nice staff too. Breakfast was nice although coffee wasn't that great...

Three night stay

Perfect location - walkable to every major attraction in Canterbury. It is an older building but it gives it charm! :) the continental breakfast was good. Overall, great stay and would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone.

Friendly helpful staff, GREAT home baked pastries for breakfast and very convenient. Nice to stay in a hotel with a history. The sloping floors in the bedroom is a bit disconcerting

The location is in the no-cars zone, plan ahead carefully if you drive. The building is very old, as is to be expected for the area, but well maintained. Easy walking to all attractions and lots of dining options.

Nice central hotel

Great centrally located hotel. Friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Good continental breakfast. Steep narrow stairs (expected in old buildings). I would definitely recommend.

Very good hotel

The hotel is 5 mins from the cathedral and right on the high street, so getting to all the nearby attractions are easy. Hotel is clean and comfortable. Staffs are friendly and helpful. I used the park and ride for 2 days costing less than half of 24 hours parking.

This hotel was a heaven send. It was the nicest hotel on our entire trip. Clean. Neat. Scenic. In a great location. If i am ever in Canterbury again, i will stay here.

8/10 Very good

Good location, friendly staff, bar area was nice but not much atmosphere, it was really quiet, we were the only family sitting in the bar area but that may have been down to the fact that it was a Sunday night. Rooms were bigger than expected which was nice! The parking was a bit of a pain as we arrived earlier around 11am. When we checked in we had to go back to the car park and pay for the hours we had already stayed, then we had to drive out and back in the car park to start the 24hr parking at the discounted rate with the hotel. This was just a little inconvenient but not the end of the world as it was only a short walk from the hotel. Overall we had a lovely stay and would stay again.

Cheap and cheerful - fair value

Fairly basic hotel, but clean and a decent breakfast. For what I paid entirely fair.
