Liked: Amenities
Room was clean but needs updating eg crack inbwall, paint missing from skirting board. Amazing bath room but we found it hard to access the bath and shower as it was a beautiful roll top but very high for us to get in and nowhere to hand shower atrachment. We used swimming pool showers! Staff very friendly and helpful. We had to ask for our dressing gowns but theu were produced quickly. No tea coffee machine except for kettle! Breakfast was standard, tasty but not much variety but fine. Sauna has been decomisdioned.and passage to swimming pool is very dark and the tiles are very slippy if wet. (I fell over and badly hurt my arm).

Great service and spacious rooms! But this isn’t a hotel, it is a bed and breakfast with a pool. There is no where to get food or chill out and parking is very limited.

Hotel was not quite as expected based on reviews. Although very old and has updated over the years, our room was in need of some love and maintenance. The hotel staff is amazing, ambiance is great, and breakfast was good, but sadly our room was in need of a deep clean. Bed and sheets were clean, but smelled horribly of cigarettes and musk. The hotel did offer us a different room and we probably should have taken it. (So that was our fault.) With some deep cleaning to our specific room, this hotel would have been great for a quick visit to Canterbury. Great pubs in walking distance and close to Aldi for convenience.
