"Clean"

"We had no hot water in our room so couldn’t use the bath or shower, the air conditioning unit did not work and the room wasn’t well cleaned. I have to say that after speaking with the staff at the hotel they were very helpful and did offer a refund for the affected night, but we did check out a night early to find a different hotel as the problems weren’t resolved and a new room couldn’t be offered due to it being fully booked. It’s quite run down and was a disappointment, we expected it to be nicer than it was and definitely expected the basic things like hot water to work. It is in a great location, right in the center of everything and good for a night but if you’re looking for something more romantic for say an anniversary then I would probably avoid. It’s a shame as it could be much nicer if it had a bit of TLC."

"What a wonderful welcome from Hannah and the team. Brilliant stay and wonderful breakfast. They are currently carrying out a refurbishment (hence 4 rather than 5 stars for the actual hotel). Didn't impact, other than the restaurant being closed but wow from what they've done so far it's going to be stunning! Great location too"

"Amazing location, right in the centre of Canterbury, actually built into the cathedral gate. We were made to feel really welcome by all the staff. Given a choice of rooms and early check-in. Very interesting building with lots of steps and wonky floors, would not recommend if you are infirm. Room had a wonderful view of the cathedral, but was very quiet. Lovely hot and powerful shower. Room and all shared areas were clean and well decorated, carpets clean too. Breakfast was really good, it was continental plus! Good fruit fresh salad, porridge and croissants were amazing. Coffee was strong and fresh, orange juice excellent too, all quality products "
