The hotel rooms are small and the sanitary facilities are poor. They are not consistent with the pictures. There is no golf course and it is not as good as the pictures. It is a family hotel-style hotel with poor management and poor breakfast. I do not recommend it when choosing.

It is an old brick-red building, and the exterior and interior match well. There are many landscapes and portraits hanging in the corridors, and the bathrooms are bright and new. Convenient parking, yard lawn 👍

We stayed here for two nights in an Executive room; it was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bar and restaurant were closed for refurbishment whilst we were there but this didn’t really affect us. Breakfast was good with a wide selection of hot and cold food. The hotel is by a fairly busy road but it is set well back and we didn’t hear any traffic noise at all. There is plenty of parking and it felt very safe leaving our car there. Canterbury city centre is only a 10-15 minute walk away and there are plenty of good restaurants within easy walking distance. Highly recommended!

From the booking process with Hannah who was excellent, to the greeting and friendly and helpful advice from Aiden throughout our stay of 3 nights, and the service of Aaron at breakfast, we couldn’t have asked for better. The room was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would like to return.
