Fantastic weekend stay

Exceeded my expectations for our weekend. Fantastic central location, clean and good sized room, lovely staff, continental breakfast only but nice selection.

More of a warning than dislike..although noise from outside was minimal the building is old and you can hear indoor movement. Take ear plugs if a lite sleeper.

Extremely convenient

As a gay couple we were thrilled to randomly find ourselves staying in the Oscar Wilde room. But in all seriousness the hotel overall was pretty decent. We had a Superior Room which had plenty of space, the breakfast options were simultaneously fantastic and.. not.. I can't explain that one... And the chap holding fort on the reception desk was friendly, professional and very welcoming. There was limited noise from outside and it generally felt relatively cosy. Rooms were kept clean every day and bonus points to the cleaning/housekeeping crew who had to put up with the mess my partner makes. In terms of location this was more than ideal. The general architecture nearby was brilliant, and in terms of walking distance we were only a few minutes from the centre of town in one direction and the train station in the other.

Anyone with more severe mobility impairments might want to rethink this one. The hotel area of the building has one step to access and the stairs up to the rooms were narrow with rail on only one side. Amenities inside the room were welcome but also worn, for lack of a better word - we had a small single wardrobe which did the job but the door didn't shut properly, and a nice but stained chair. Small inconveniences which we can all forgive, but were nonetheless noticeable which just made it feel a touch 'meh.' Breakfast was a peculiar affair but there wasn't any particularly accountable reason - as an example offers of toast were made after we'd pretty much eaten subtitutes due to the lack of it, there were pastries and things which were unlabelled (vegetarians/vegans watch out) and for a continental breakfast the meats and cheeses offered were not of much variety.

Lovely short stay in the heart of Canterbury

Beautiful old building with quirky features Every room is different and gives a real sense of history

I would have liked a proper cooked breakfast but the continental breakfast was pretty nice too

Ottimo soggiorno

La posizione, la colazione a buffet, la struttura storica, lo staff... fantastica!

Era perfetta così ma, per i più pretenziosi, essendo una struttura storica, è da tenere conto che gli spazi ed i servizi possono non essere apprezzati

Lovely place for an enjoyable stay in Canterbury.

Great in every way. I'd recommend this for anyone coming to Canterbury. The only slight negative might be if you don't like stairs, but a staff member kindly carried my bag up for me. The breakfast was impressive.

Lovely stay in very nice hotel in a beautiful Canterbury :-)

Room was very clean, cosy, warm and sunny. Bathroom spotless and very convenient. Breakfast was lavish and food was freshly prepared. Location is perfect - short distance to all main attractions in Canterbury and short distance to have a walk in the fields...

Good value, great location.

I had Covid so didn't get to go, although the friend I had booked with did. She enjoyed her stay. The bed was comfy, the staff pleasant, and the breakfast good.

The bathroom was a little on the small side.

Really enjoyed our stay in Canterbury and the hotel location was excellent.

The breakfast was continental but had a very extensive range and the staff were very helpful.

Possibly the entrance/stairs area could do with up grading.

lovely room and facilities. continental breakfast excellent

very noisy outside for most of the 2 nights we stayed there. unfortunately, we were shown to a dirty room on arrival, ‘Paris’, where the bed was unmade, dirty mugs, and dirty towels on bathroom floor - when we complained, were moved to a room that was ready !
