The room was very clean, and had been recently updated. The staff were really welcoming and friendly, and it was great to be able to take our dog with us too. A bed and water bowl was provided by the hotel for him. The only constructive criticism would be that the room would benefit from a light above the mirror. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again or recommend this hotel.

Restaurant was closed but we were assured a full menu would be served in the renovated bar. Only fish and chips, hamburgers, curry, no beer (only Peroni!!) and the bar was empty and soulless. Not how we imagined our celebration with friends would be We complained but the General Manager was only contactable by email. He still has not replied. The hotel is not nearly as grand and welcoming as advertised. There are better places to stay in Canterbury.

Nicely refurbished rooms but no heat in the room so was given a small space heater?? Then mid afternoon the music started beneath us, we were told by the front desk the party would finish between 5-6pm. At 7pm it was still going strong. Music so loud no TV could drown it out and the floor vibrated. We asked to be moved, which was accommodated but only to a smaller queen size room (we had a king) - no compensation and no apologies. Would not stay again.

Not the greatest hotel. Paper thin walls, the double bed seemed extra small, terrible pillows, the shower didn’t drain & the temperature was very difficult to manage.

The staff were all friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was being refurbished so only the bar was available for food which would have been fine but there was a conference on all day and evening which meant most of the bar was closed too. We were told we couldn’t have half of the food menu because of this. The floorboards are creaky due to the nature of the building which meant when people went to bed at 2.30am it was extremely loud above our heads.
