Wonderful

The room was spotless. Clean tidy and cosy. When we booked in they gave us an opportunity to have a ground floor room which was especially helpful.
Food excellent and prompt. Bar area comfy with prices on par with pub.
Would recommend a stay here if coming to Canterbury.
Staff extremely helpful, very big car park.
The whole hotel was very clean, bed very comfortable. The staff extremely friendly and helpful. A leisurely 20 min stroll to city centre. All in all a very relaxing enjoyable stay. We would come back no hesitation.
Comfortable room, good breakfast and friendly staff.

Great staff, great quality breakfast, good location. Rooms are a bit tired but you expect this for the price. I did question whether the sheets had been changed since the last guest after finding hair in the bed. Also stains on the bedding. Otherwise no complaints.
Polite , smart staff , clean warm rooms . Breakfast was good fresh, hot .Service was efficient and friendly. Great location for sightseeing and shopping in Canterbury.
Everything about it,have stayed a few times it never lets you down,staff really friendly, food exceptional, breakfast to die for rooms spot on thank yo
I don’t think I should have to request that our room be serviced, it should be standard procedure unless I request otherwise. When I did ask for it to be serviced I returned at 11pm and nothing had been done!
