    fresh juices
    made-to-order breakfast

    It was just a nice choice for a fleeting pause in Canterbury with definitely value for money. The breakfast selection was excellent, especially the fresh juices and made-to-order cooked options. I'd suggest bringing a good pair of shoes for the walk to the station.

    fantastic access to canterbury's charming parks and historical sites

    I loved the comfortable room that offered all the usual facilities and the very nice closeness to landmarks like the Canterbury Roman Museum and Greyfriars Chapel, both just a short stroll away. For anyone who enjoys weekend wanderings, this place is a dream since so many attractions are practically at your doorstep, but parking can be a bit tricky, so plan a little extra time for that.

    The hotel is in a great location. The room was lovely, it had everything I needed, and the bed was comfy.

    As the hotel is in the city centre the car-parking is a little tricky. Also, because of the location, it can be a little noisy outside late at night. This doesn't bother me particularly, although I usually like to sleep with the window open, and found I couldn't do so on account of the noise.
