Stayed in the King room with the wife for a weekend. The staff were amazing, they informed us that work is being done ahead of our arrival which was nice as I have stayed in places that havent notified me. The work didnt affect our stay except for breakfast but overall it was a great stay. The half of the hotel they have done up looks great and once finished its going to look amazing. Wifi is very poor though at times and phone signal is bad but for us it didnt affect our stay as we were aout most of the time

When you're initial interaction when checking in is for the hotel to upgrade you to a suite then you know you're going to love your stay. The suite was wonderful with extra touches such as a speaker in the bathroom so you can listen to tunes as you relax in the deep bath. The suite was tastefully decorated and the luxurious bed allowed for a great night's sleep. The location for the hotel was wonderful meaning a walking into the heart of Canterbury was only 10 minutes away so you're only ever a short distance away from checking out the Cathedral or a range of dining options. Breakfast was another triumph with many ingredients being sourced locally such as the sausages, eggs and apple juice. I stay over night 3-4 times per month and have done so for the last couple of years and I can safely say that this rates very near the top of all those stays and I look forward to hopefully staying here again soon.

Although the hotel was very nice overall, the housekeeping was below par. We were aware that the rooms would not be cleaned on a daily basis which was fine, when we did request the room be made up, all that was done was emptying the trash, making the bed and changing towels They did not replenish the toilet paper or clean the bathroom counter and mirror. They did not replace the coffee and milk for the coffee maker. The room was not vacuumed. The restaurant was not open except for breakfast and the bar didn’t serve food until 6 pm.

Situated in a convenient location close to shopping. The room we stayed in was very spacious, had good facilities including a comfortable bed and quite clean, although the view wasnt great and the WiFi signal was awful. Nicely decorated in the foyer and reception areas but the dining area for breakfast in the morning was quite dated and dark. The breakfast overall was alright with some options but not very substantial and the bar food was a bit expensive. Would stay again but suggest going elsewhere for food.
