“This 3-star hotel impresses with its Georgian architecture dating back to the 1730s and blends historical charm with modern comfort, placing guests within easy reach of Canterbury's attractions. The complimentary breakfast, thoughtfully tailored to different dietary needs, stands out, as does the secure on-site parking. I especially appreciate the walled garden, offering a private, tranquil escape.”

historical charm and convenience
close locationold beamsfree parking
The location was very close to the town center. my room had old beams. free parking was available. This helped a lot. breakfast had a wide selection.
i requested a room with a bathtub. they confirmed by email, but i only got a shower. the shower didn't have much pressure. the bed felt quite hard and the tv on the wall seemed very tiny.

Fantastic Location and Comfortable Stay!
huge roomnice furnitureexcellent breakfastfamily hotel
The room was huge! I really liked the furniture. I also liked that the breakfast room had a nice atmosphere, and the breakfast was excellent! The people were nice too. It felt a bit like a family hotel.
The toilet in our room didn't flush correctly, it was broken, a small inconvenience. There wasn't enough milk in the rooms for more than two coffees, just one each!
