The staff went above and beyond, they were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The hotel exterior is stunning and the room was exactly what we needed. An easy 15 minute walk to the city center. We will definitely come back next time we go to Canterbury!

The hotel is a bit dated but currently undergoing renovation so we upgraded to one of their finished rooms which was really nice, I think if they continue the great look and feel for the rest of the hotel it's going to look really nice. Hotel felt safe and within walking distance to Canterbury town centre only 10 minutes away. Breakfast was good but dining room requires updating so be good to see once all the work has been carried out. Keep up the good work.
