    very welcoming hotel with a good atmosphere.

    disturbed nights sleep from outside noise and the curtains were too flimsy to shut out the early morning sunlight. Bed very lumpy and uncomfortable.

    "At time of booking we werent aware that the shanghai room was on the third floor-as we were travelling with elderly parents we would have requested first floor room for them. also this room there was no sink in the bathroom which means not able to wash hands in bathroom. also shaving in main bedroom not ideal.To turn on the bedside light they had to crawl under bedside cabinet. More detailed room information clearly given for each room would be helpful for guests to make appropriate room choices. I would inform others of the hotel but would mention this issues to others."

    rooms very clean and comfortable

    "overall I would recommend this hotel for the attitude of the young staff and location." (99183154)

    The friendly and enthuesiastic staff

    The themed room ( mumbia ) meant little space for personal belongings and the sink in the room too small for purpose, nice idea not enough space.

    After a 6 hour traffic-hampered journey we were greeted like old friends at reception. Our luggage swept away as we were directed to the bar for a free drink. The hotel and rooms have been tastefully modernised, cleverly retaining the character and charm of the old building.Had the weather been better it would have been nice to sit outside in the delightful garden for a meal. The hotel is perfectly located to enjoy Canterbury on foot. All in all a very pleasant experience.

    "The hotel is located within in minutes walk of Canterbury's town centre, where you'll find many bars, restaurants and brilliant shops. The hotel staff were so friendly nothing was too much and everyone was willing to assist. Gorgeous decor and a fantastic garden where you can enjoy a nice glass of wine. The room we stayed in was small but decorated beautifully and a lot of attention to detail. Overall we rate this hotel highly, perfect for a weekend away." (99238346)

    The hotel is absolutely gorgeous and so close to the city center. Only minus point our room (Marrakesh) was small, but beautifully decorated.

    "The room was at the side of the street - which was very noisy at night. Because of that, did not have a good night sleep. The television did not work. It took about 10 min. for the water to get warm." (99201301)

    Stayed at the 'marakesh' room. It was nicely decorated, but rather small.

    The luxury of Egyptian cotton white bedding. Very stylish. Very comfortable room. The location of the hotel was excellent for walking around Canterbury.

    We understand that the hotel had recently been totally refurbished. It was noticible that this was to a very high standard but we felt there still needs to be perhaps further attention to the central heating system whereby we had a problem with a noisy radiator or pump. A single phone call downstairs and a very courteous manager rectified the problem.

    Staff were so friendly, attentive and very helpful

    Climb to room on 3rd floor with heavy suitcase is a bit of a problem.
