Unfortunately the restaurant really let the stay down for us. Service was medioker and poorly organised. Hotel was in great location and room was nice. Front reception staff where helpful a d friendly
This hotel is only .2 km from Canterbury Cathedral, our goal for visiting Canterbury. Great location in town, friendly staff, warm room with hospitable details. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend!
Abode is in the middle of the high street, yet no noise was heard in my room. Canterbury is easily explored on foot. There is parking, but I came by train, and the west station is a 10 minute walk.

Good city centre location. Hotel was nice and quiet, so we slept well.
Location is in the heart of Canterbury so great location, walking distance for all attractions.
Parking is hard and difficult we were lucky to get parking on site which is limited, but if that was not the case the parking is a good walk away. Which can be horrible if raining. It was very noisy in the hotel while we stayed sounded like the rooms above were moving all the furniture around. Because the flooring was polished wood no rugs or any other covering was noisy. We only stayed one night and did not have breakfast.
A lovely modernized medieval building. Wonderfully helpful staff, great room facing the Beany museum. On the first floor is a lounge very reminiscent of a Tudorish sitting room, beamed ceilings and all.
Well situated hotel; reasonable price. Staff v helpful and friendly. Really good breakfast (we went for a la carte). Furnishings / decor a little run down but clean and overall a really nice hotel.
Beautiful property in the middle of Canterbury. An absolute favorite.

We had a lovely stay at the abode. Hotel is located in a great location for exploring Canterbury. The hotel was clean and the staff were very helpful. Some areas of the hotel looked like they needed a lick of paint but overall it was good value for money.
