Lovely place to stay, quiet and very comfortable room/bed.
Staff are very nice and the breakfast is great …. Cooked or continental if you prefer, great coffee too!
If you’ve travelled by car, this is definitely the place to stay….large, secure car park and about a 20 minute walk to centre of Canterbury. Taxi about £5.40 back from centre.
Very recommended indeed.
The whole hotel was very clean, bed very comfortable. The staff extremely friendly and helpful. A leisurely 20 min stroll to city centre. All in all a very relaxing enjoyable stay. We would come back no hesitation.
