Have stayed here a few times and the hotel is lovely. Great location for wandering around Canterbury. This time around we found the bed/mattress to be extremely hard and very uncomfortable so we both had a very restless night. Otherwise an enjoyable stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Overall, the hotel was fine, and in a very convenient location. I have only one complaint: The charge for laundry was outrageous. I sent a few items to their laundry: about 6 pairs of socks, 7 pairs of underwear, two t-shirts, and nylon gym pants. No dry cleaning. The charge was 75 British pounds. Ridiculous. The hotel said it was because they used an outside contractor. From my standpoint, it doesn't matter who does the actual work; the point is that 75 pounds is an extortionate charge!

Nearly everything was lovely, this is our 3rd stay and we travel up from Gosport, near Portsmouth, as we have loved our previous stays and the comfort from your rooms. However, our bed in our room 146, was soooo uncomfortable it ruined our stay. We’d booked to come up for a night away after having a baby last December, and we were both looking forward to a comfortable undisturbed sleep, but that wasn’t the case. The springs were poking into us and neither of us slept well. Breakfast was lovely as usual and everyone we saw that worked there was very polite and helpful.

We met up with family, booked 4 rooms for 3 nights. Robbie was so friendly and cheerful nothing was to much trouble for him. My family had a lovely conversation with him, telling us about Canterbury and the facilities in the hotel for our lovely breakfast which we all enjoyed every morning and so much to choose from. Rooms lovely and bathroom excellent. Rooms warm in this cold weather. We will be staying again in the future.
