We had a lovely stay at the abode. Hotel is located in a great location for exploring Canterbury. The hotel was clean and the staff were very helpful. Some areas of the hotel looked like they needed a lick of paint but overall it was good value for money.

Staff was very friendly and super nice. Service was great. Good location if you visiting the town, walkable distance to train station and restaurant. Maybe the only downside if I have to say is the flooring was a bit old, so in the morning i could hear people walking upstairs.

Lovely hotel - great location

Lovely as usual. Having stayed in an “enviable” room type before, it was noticeable this time having dropped to “comfortable”. Still high standards but a little tired in the bathroom, a small entrance (slightly awkward with bags) and less frills. Still lovely and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay (and complimentary birthday treat). I would always opt for an enviable room when funds allow but all rooms are lovely. Thank you for a great stay! I will be back again soon

Lovely hotel!

Hotel is beautiful, bed very comfy. Modern and elegant looking hotel. Breakfast service was slow with a fair few orders coming out wrong, and no real instruction of what breakfast is included with the room

When we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted with a smile and a lovely welcome. We could not fault the gentleman who was hospitable and sorted out any problem that came our way. We have stayed in the hotel previously and it won’t be the last. Thank you very much to the staff and the wonderful service you provide.

Nice central hotel, mind room charges

Stayed for a couple of nights a few days before Christmas, so we could shop and experience the Christmas vibe of Canterbury. Hotel is in the heart of the town which is great.Staff were friendly and welcoming. My only disappointment was that they took a card on arrival, this was in case I charged anything to the room, £100 was taken, nothing was charged to the room. I called two weeks later to ask why this wasn’t returned, they said it could take up to a month. Exactly 1 month later the £100 was put back into my account! Mmmmmmm We will definitely stay again, will likely say that I don’t have a card.

Poor

Had to move rooms as the toilet didn't work, staff weren't overly fussed , moved to the second room to find black mould on the walls and around the window. Breakfast was overly expensive for poor quality and slow service.

Very nice hotel with an excellent position in the town. Good combination of new and traditional decor. Nice room but the bathroom was a little “cosy” but adequate. The breakfast was very tasty but as everything was table served it was a little slower than weer used too. Definitely use again.

The hotel was good vaue for money, centrally placed and we had a quiet room at the back. Good that the window opened. Staff were helpful and mailed some property left in the room in error. A good experience and we would not hesitate to return and to recomment to others.
