From start to finish (one night stay) everything was exceptional. Staff were most pleasant. Place was clean and quiet. Dinner and breakfast were superb. Literally the only quibble I had was the bacon for breakfast was not soft the way I like it.

I've never been more happy to leave a review than for this place. A proper hotel the likes of which you seldom get in this day and age. Friendly, helpful staff, comfortable, sturdy beds, pleasant shower, hot chocolate and plenty of teabags, milk and sugar in the room, topped off with a hearty cooked to order breakfast. Put frankly, if this hotel is profitable, then the vast majority of others have zero excuse for the standards they've let slip for decades now. Being away from home on business is always miserable but this hotel took the edge of it just a little, so a big thanks from me.

Absolutely enchanted by our stay at this romantic gem in Canterbury. From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the charm and elegance of the place. The ambiance perfectly captures the historical beauty of the city, making it an ideal retreat for couples. The rooms are exquisitely decorated, blending modern comfort with classic touches that make you feel like you've stepped back in time. Each detail, from the plush bedding to the intricate decor, is designed to offer a luxurious and intimate experience. The staff were incredibly attentive and made us feel truly special, adding to the overall magical atmosphere. We enjoyed delightful breakfasts and serene evenings by the fireplace, all while being just a stone's throw away from Canterbury's main attractions. Staying here isn't just about having a place to sleep; it's about experiencing the essence of Canterbury in the most romantic way possible. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create unforgettable memories. This hotel deserves the highest praise and will always hold a special place in our hearts.

    Location is great in centre of tiwn but down a fairly quiet side street. The guy who was on duty was very helpful, setting up parking for us. Thank you. It has the look and feel of a budget hotel but was more expensive than that.

    Fantastic location, right in the heart of Canterbury. we always stay here when we visit our son in Kent. Rooms are spotless, staff always friendly and can’t complain about the breakfast which is just right. The only thing I would say is request a room away from the bar that is right next door, as they play their music loud and you can hear it from some rooms. You pay more that some budget hotels, but then a lot less than other hotels, so worth the price,
