    Quite noisy in our room at times from the pub garden opposite - but with all windows shut it was a lot better and didn’t continue too late into the night.

    Great location and nice decor. Breakfast was good! Just slightly out of town to give a sense of calm - but literally a 5 min walk into the centre.

    No dinner restaurant but not a problem as very many restaurants near by.

    Nice comfortable room, good breakfast with generous portions in a pleasant breakfast room . Wouldn’t hesitate to go back. Also only minutes from the station.

    Being charged an extra £36 pound to park considering I'd already paid getting on for £600 for a 3 night stay, Also the hairdryer did not reach the mirror, the blinds in room 24 were not big enough for the windows, and just outside room 24 was the cleaner's storage cupboard so while we were in the room all we could hear was people talking and banging about in the morning and evening doors need to be sound proofed as it was quite noisy. Probably would stay again but we would like a different room from the one we had.

    Breakfast was excellent best part of our stay, room was ok, bed was comfortable and bathroom was very clean, also hotel was in a great location for visiting Canterbury.

    The decor in the room is just showing some signs of ageing, and I thought that the mattress cover probably needed replacing with a fresh one. Just a slight whiff once it had become warm. Something that I am aware of whilst managing bedding at home.

    I have visited this hotel several times in the last 6 years. The rooms are always well prepared and clean, and the beds comfortable. I thought that the breakfast service this visit was better than before. There was a good fast service and a pleasing selection.

    We didn't like the music playing in the bar in the evening and at breakfast - was a bit loud and didn't seem to match the atmosphere of the hotel bar.

    Location is excellent, breakfast is good. Staff are very friendly.

    The breakfast service was confusing (for the staff too) and it took an effort for breakfast to arrive. The staff at the hotel bar could have been better trained.

    The hotel is stylish and clean, and in a great location. The room was large, well decorated, in top condition, and with a spacious bathroom.

    I could only open the fanlight of my window. The main window consisted of a fixed panel of glass. I was concerned what I would do in case of an emergency.

    The location was ideal. The hotel was lovely. Breakfast was great. Staff were very professional.

    Nothing, we really enjoyed our stay - think the only improvement might be if you offered dinner too

    Good choice for breakfast, great Fullstaff English 😉very nice fresh orange juice & lovely coffee. All our group enjoyed the breakfast, we had between us.. a vegan breakfast, poached egg & avocado, Fullstaff English. Great cocktail bar & good/cosy areas to sit & chat. Lovely room & good bathroom

    Shame there are no evening meals at present, but we understand that they might be offered again soon. There are some amazing restaurants close by, but we wanted to be lazy!

    Great location with parking, decor was lovely. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly without exception: reception, breakfast, bar and housekeeping all couldn’t do enough to assist. Our room (23) was lovely and good to have two comfy chairs to use. Bed was very comfortable for us both. Good choices at breakfast. A hotel we’d recommend.

    Breakfast could have been better. Plates were cold so any cooked food soon went cold. The helpings were too generous for me and had to leave some which I didn’t like doing. Apart from that there was a good choice . Very enjoyable and would recommend

    Chose this hotel because of position and car park. It was a relief to be able to park car at anytime. Everything was in walking distance.

    Only negative was that the staff cleaned the tables within the breakfast room whilst the salt, pepper and sugar remained on the tables. Therefore they were covered in cleaner.

    Room was more than acceptable. Although the bathroom was a little small it was perfectly adequate. We would have preferred a walk in shower, however the shower over the bath was very good/powerful. A good range of dishes was offered for breakfast which were very good. It was a pleasant dining area. The hotel commands an excellent position with Canterbury. Very nice bar with a good range of drinks including cocktails.
