    When I am in Canterbury, I like staying here. This small hotel offers a lot of newly renovated and perfect little rooms. The property serves a continental breakfast. Very helpful people are working. Magnificent and absolutely incredible location very near the Cathedral, you can walk everywhere. For tea and goodies visit Patisserie Valerie, located close by.

    It was lovely to stay in a small inn-style hotel with a history - gave the place character. No complaints on comfort or services. Great location and pretty good value for money. Breakfast nice.

    Excellent central location very convenient for everything in town. Reasonably quiet, being in the pedestrian zone, so no traffic noise. Very good full English breakfast. Staff were polite and helpful. Second floor room small but comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

    Steep narrow stairs and no lift - not suitable for anyone with reduced mobility. Breakfast service didn't start till 8 a.m. and was a bit slow on one day. Off-site parking for an extra £5 per day.

    Good breakfast, nice staff. Close to shopping and cathedral attractions.

    Due to a mixup by the booking staff, we were awakened at midnight by another guest who had been issued the key to our room. We screamed. He screamed. He darted down the stairs to report the error. The next day we had to move to a different room which was tiny. There was no way to close the bathroom door once you were inside unless you stepped over into the bathtub. Tiny single beds, like a child's cot.

    I found the staff friendly & very helpful. The room was comfortable & clean & quiet. This was my second stay and I will definitely go again.

    We would have liked a hair drier in the room, but will remeber to bring one next time.
