Ample parking behind the hotel. Good breakfast selection. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and very quiet. 15-minute walk to the cathedral and centre of Canterbury. Hotel is older and isn’t fancy but is a great value. Staff were all excellent. Would definitely stay again.

Great location for walking on Canterbury with plenty of free parking on offer. Maybe by a big roundabout, but you didn’t hear the traffic. Room was clean and tidy and offered ample room. The person who booked us in at the front desk was friendly and informative. Breakfast offering was wide and varied. Only issue was dinner was average at best, raw gammon from the carvery on plate was brought up with the server although she just informed the kitchen and then came back saying “they say it was cooked” and that was it, no apology. The only let down of our stay.
