This is a fantastic hotel for a visit to Canterbury. Absolutely central to everything you come to Canterbury to see, but has the added bonus of being a hotel you look forward to coming back to at the end of the day. It feels like coming home. The staff, the ambience, the furnishing seem designed to create a feeling of welcome. Ask the staff about it's history as well. It's been here even longer than the Cathedral Gate that anchors it. Highly recommend if you like hotels that are story worthy. I'll definitely return.

This wonderful hotel has so much character, including slanting floors in some rooms. The staff were fantastic and extremely helpful. Located central to everything you could want to see.

Amazing location, right in the centre of Canterbury, actually built into the cathedral gate. We were made to feel really welcome by all the staff. Given a choice of rooms and early check-in. Very interesting building with lots of steps and wonky floors, would not recommend if you are infirm. Room had a wonderful view of the cathedral, but was very quiet. Lovely hot and powerful shower. Room and all shared areas were clean and well decorated, carpets clean too. Breakfast was really good, it was continental plus! Good fruit fresh salad, porridge and croissants were amazing. Coffee was strong and fresh, orange juice excellent too, all quality products

Quirky environment, but pleasing. Very limited view of cathedral despite advertising room had a view. Very handy for visit to cathedral and view city. Breakfast room overlooks historic city centre. Car access to hotel through barriers somewhat tedious as was "not on site" parking. Overall totally enjoyable stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay in this almost 8 century old hotel with Alice in Wonderland maze of hallways, tilted floors and lichen/moss encrusted roof tiles. Location is perfect, rooms quiet/clean, beds comfortable, staff kind and welcoming.

A fantastic location with a large very clean bedroom. The bathroom was small but good with an enthusiastic shower. Normal coffee and tea making facility. My only complaint was the bed was rather small for two people. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Is definitely stay here again.

The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The labyrinth of stairs, roves, and corridors were fun. Staff were amicable and informative, breakfasts were good, varied, and flexible. The location was outstanding. I’m looking forward to our next stay there.
