Magical Canterbury Retreat for Two
An excellent facility in the cathedral complex which was just what we wanted. We love the cathedral and it is so central to everywhere we wanted to go. At night the floodlit building is magical - photo is from our room window.
Terry, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great room in the annex with views of yhe cathedral. I thought the garden area was particularly nice and a great place for a coffee. Location in the cathedral grounds is ideal. Only draw back very difficult to find the way in by car!

Nice hotel in great location in Cathedral grounds
Very nice hotel right in the grounds of the cathedral. Staff were excellent. Breakfast was very good. My only complaints are the directions to the hotel and parking arrangements both of which were a tor nightmare. Otherwise a very pleasant stay
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was perfect from the clean room with a view of the Cathedral to the easy walk to town.
SHEILA, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not Great
The walls were very thin, we could hear everything in the room next to ours. There were no supplies in the bathroom (shampoo and conditioner, did have soap). Room was small. The breakfast was terrible, I can’t really say anything besides that to describe it. Location is absolutely fantastic and I think they get away with a lot for that reason, but in my opinion it was not worth the money paid.

Perfect location
The perfect location to visit Canterbury and the cathedral. Smallish room but perfectly fine for an overnight stay. Breakfast was great and served on the outside terrace on a beautiful sunny morning.

8/10 Very good

Wonderful location, excellent staff, breakfast was good. Hopefully bathrooms will be remodeled at some point. They are not dirty or old but the sizing of the fixtures needs to be addressed.

10/10 Exceptional

The lodge is a peace of heaven in the touristic town of Canterbury. The garden is wonderful and you can attend services easily and the evensongs each day at 5:30 pm in the cathedral.
Karin, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The lodge was adjacent to Canterbury Cathedral making it an ideal location. Rooms are nicely appointed.
Lily, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is gorgeous given it’s located right next to the cathedral. Parking was a touch confusing as the entrance is a 2 way entrance with only a single lane. The security booth isn’t quite within reaching distance. The rooms were adequate, clean but no frill. Feels dated but the lobby and dining option onsite are top notch.
Suzzane, 1-night trip

Great room in a very quiet and peaceful place.
Michael, 1-night trip

Breakfast and unlimited entry to the Cathedral included, really worth the price
Mei, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hotel and people. Just made a mistake in booking an “accessible” room when we didn’t need it, and did not ask for twin beds when we needed them - as Queen size too narrow. Will know next time.

Room with a view
Perfect place for solo travel clean, welcoming and beautiful views of the Cathedral right outside your door. Entrance to the Cathedral is free when staying at the hotel. Beautiful breakfast and a great lounge.
