Spontaneous booking
Traveling back from France. It was a spontaneous decision due to traffic issues. The hotel staff who greeted us named Sam was lovely. Very welcoming and friendly A** for customer services. Nice hotel needs updating in areas but overall ok. I had a good night's sleep and breakfast was decent as well. Will probably stay here again.
Good hotel within 15 min walk to Cathedral. The area of Wincheap was very run down without great disabled access (ie lack of dropped curbs). Also hotel doesn’t have a lift. Nice pool but a shame the water temp was so low! Room was great and very clean.
The hotel is a Georgian/Victorian building that suffered theft and damage while closed during covid. A huge amount of work has brought it up to a good standard. The staff are great, provide excellent service and the breakfast is good with plenty of choice. The hot dishes are fresh and the scrambled eggs excellent. There is a swimming pool which we didn't get to use due to lack of time. Our only issue was noise between rooms which was not speech or tv so much as footsteps which sounded like someone was walking in our room! It didn't keep us from sleeping but was a bit disconcerting at first. If not for this I would have rated excellent. Having heard what happened and seen how much work has gone into getting the hotel back into operation, I am sure this too will be sorted out.
An exceptional, family run hotel perfectly situated for exploring Canterbury on foot. A very warm welcome with tips and advice on the City. Superb breakfast included. On site parking. I couldn’t fault anything.
Our stay was great.
Very comfortable bed, clean bathroom, excellent breakfast. The hotel is close to the city centre and we could do everything on foot.
The staff were very friendly and polite.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
My room was on the ground floor. It was unsafe to open the window at night which was facing the carpark. However it was necessary to open the window at night as there was no ventilation in the room. The room was dated as well.
Breakfast was fabulous. The guy working the front desk was helpful and courteous. The bathrooms had no hooks to hang items and nothing to hold onto when getting into a very slippery tub. They never cleaned out room. The parking area was horrific as extremely limited and small. We had to find a place on the street. They recommended we park at a place 1/4 mile away. I wouldn't ever recommend this place.
