great stay with minor room comfort issues
The staff offered really good service, particularly the young lady who checked us in and served breakfast. The location is prime for shopping and sightseeing, right next to the iconic cathedral.
Room comfort could be improved for a better overall experience.

Very lovely stay, no complaint, we would be happy to recommend. It's a unique place with so very friendly staff and airy rooms. The setting is amazing and perfect, close to the cathedral, the centre of Canterbury and shops and coffes and restaurants.

We had a lovely stay, enjoying the charming courtyard where we sipped our morning coffee and the cozy lounge perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. There was a great little garden area for a peaceful escape, and the room was quirky yet comfortable, adding to the hotel's unique vibe. The only minor thing was missing a fruit juice option at breakfast, but the continental spread was more than enough! 😊

Perfect spot in historic Canterbury!
The location is fantastic, right near the cathedral and cute cafes. The breakfast was awesome, especially the fresh fruit salad. Staff were super friendly and even helped with our bags. Only bummer was the stairs. They were a bit tricky with our stroller. A charming place!
