    Historic and characterful ambiance, spacious family room, proximity to key attractions

    The outdated room decor was disappointing!!! The shower water pressure was inconsistent, making for an unsatisfactory bathing experience!!!

    easy walking access to the best of canterbury's landmarks

    During my stay, I loved that it was just a short 10-minute stroll to the stunning Canterbury Castle and only a quick 5-minute walk to the beautiful St Mildred's Church, making it perfect for exploring the city's rich history at my own pace. plus, the staff were warm and welcoming, creating a cozy vibe that made my trip even better.

    spotless room
    peaceful garden
    lukewarm breakfast

    We had a lovely stay with a spotless room and enjoyed the peaceful garden area, perfect for unwinding. The free parking was a nice surprise, and the breakfast spread was decent, though it could've used hotter plates. this place is great value for money, and I’d recommend it if you're looking for a cozy spot! 😊

    spacious family room
    convenient parking
    easy city access
    shower safety features

    We stayed with our two kids, and the hotel was a great base to explore the city. The nearby cathedral was stunning, and we enjoyed walking along the historic city walls. The family room was spacious, and parking was super convenient.

    My children wanted better shower safety features for peace of mind.

    spacious room

    Perfect for families looking for comfort

    The staff were super accommodating, helping us store baby milk in the fridge and got us a high chair without any hassle. The room was spacious with a great castle view, perfect for our little ones to feel at home.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but good enough for what we got.

    Absolutely loved the charming decor! The location was perfect for exploring the city. Only downside was the shower pressure – it could definitely be stronger. a delightful stay! 😊

    characterful ambiance
    key attractions
    inconsistent cleaning

    Historic and characterful ambiance set a unique mood. Proximity to key attractions made exploring effortless, with everything within a short walk.

    Cleaning standards fluctuated. one night linens and toiletries were neglected. Showers had inconsistent water temperature, possibly due to the building's age. Without air conditioning, the room overheated during the day, leaving just a small fan that barely helped. The breakfast options were fairly limited, often missing basic items like brown toast. the tight parking situation can be a challenge, particularly if you arrive late in the day.

    poor shower pressure

    Great spot with comfy vibes!

    Had a cool time at this place! The room was decent, nice size with a fab view. The bed was super comfy, and loved the fluffy towels. Only bummer was the shower, it kinda dribbled at times. Would totally recommend!

    comfortable room
    convenient access
    challenging stairs
    dated vibe
    crumbly pastries

    The room was spacious and well-lit, providing a comfortable environment for relaxation. Breakfast included a decent selection, although the croissants were a bit too crumbly. The location offered easy access to the city walls and attractions, making exploration convenient. the absence of an elevator made navigating to the upper floors a challenge, and the overall atmosphere felt somewhat dated, reminiscent of a hostel.
