"Location has the potential but hotel underperforms"

5.0

Location great, in beautiful landscape, nice building, good parking, easy walk to downtown

Extrenely noisy rooms (hardly any sound isolation, so you wake up multiple times even if someone is just walking next door); lacking cleaning and no towel change until you ask for it, poor breakfast.

"Pleasant stay but but for the price would stay somewhere directly in the town"

6.0

Great location, staff very friendly and helpful. The new bar is very nice.

Basic facilities , think the hotel could do with a bit of modernisation.

The lovely staff, friendly and helpful. We took our little cocker spaniel and she had a bed and bowl ready in the room. We got an upgrade and wow it was special. Breakfast was wonderful with lovely, cheerful staff on hand to take care of us. Food was self service, plentiful and delicious. A highly recommended hotel and we are booking with them again. We went 29.4 to 2.5.26 with Canterbury on our door and so much to see and do. Try the punt experience it was great.

Nothing we didn't like, it was 100% perfect for us as a couple with a little dog.
