Se cercate il lusso probabilmente non fa per voi, ma la posizione in pieno centro città è perfetta, a pochi minuti da tutti i luoghi di interesse e ristoranti. Il parcheggio, se viaggiate in auto, è a pochi minuti dalla struttura. Camera e bagno piccoli ma il letto era confortevole e il personale gentile e disponibile. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, vista anche la colazione inclusa

The people were so nice and were always cleaning, but the toilet had some kind of a pump on it. When you flushed it would add water and then make an ungodly noise. This always made me jump. Worse if you used the toilet at night, with a full badder, the pump would activate. OH MY!

Excellent accueil !

Cet hôtel a un bon rapport qualité / prix, très bien situé et un petit déjeuner très bon Mais le vrai plus de cet hôtel est l’accueil fait par Sanjeewa. Il est très attentionné, disponible et donne de bons conseils Si je reviens à Canterbury j’y retournerai pour avoir le plaisir d’échanger à nouveau avec Sanjeewa!

Great location, decent value, get what you pay for

Great location. Just off high street, about 6/7 minute walk from either station, right next to Sainsburys express, and loads of restaurants bars etc Very dated interior, doesnt look like its had an upgrade since the 90s, and could do with a renovation, carpets a bit frayed etc. However, having said that, was clean, the owner was charming, and considering the location is very good value.

Great central location for a short break

My teenage children and I stayed just one night at the Greyfriars Lodge. It has a great, central location and the host, Sanjeewa, was very welcoming and helpful. Beds are very comfy too! Recommend this hotel for a short break. It is in need of some renovation but for a short time it is very acceptable.

Sanjeewa was a very welcoming host and very kind. We could have left our bags to collect later but we were due to leave Canterbury. It was quiet at night despite warnings of noise on the website. It is very convenient for the City, 5 minutes walk from both the Marlowe Theatre and the Cathedral. The rooms and decor are a little dated but perfectly fine for a short stay.

What a terrible experience

It was such a shame that we stayed in this hotel. I can not even imagine how they managed to advertise on Hotels.com Unfortunately I can not find any positive things about our stay. Even though their staff tried their hardest, I can not give more than half a star.

An OK value option

Odd smell in room, poor breakfast option, room was dated and bed uncomfortable. However, the single member of staff did a really good job trying to make us feel welcome. A slightly cheaper option than other stays in Canterbury.
