Loved the breakfasts and the service by the staff. They were welcoming and very helpful with check in, parking and ensuring we had everything we asked for. Best eggs Benedict I have had in a while and my husband loved the cooked breakfast. Great mixologist who made us beautiful cocktails as well. The hotel is in a very old building and the location by Westgate is perfect for sightseeing by foot from... It was the best location.

Oak side Lodge was a beautiful place to stay situated just outside Canterbury City centre. It felt very family friendly and welcoming. The room felt private but still had plenty of windows for ventilation and a fan. The bathroom was spacious and well laid out, and the owners were kind and excellent cooks.

The Black Horse Inn was a good location to explore Canterbury. It is only a short walk from the Inn to the city centre, which traverses a lovely park. The breakfast was of good quality and there were plenty choices. The room was spacious enough and the bathroom was very clean. As it is located outside of the city centre in a pleasant neighborhood, it was also quiet at night.

Private secure parking. Lovely modern decor, very clean and well equipped little house. Our stay was during a very hot spell and grateful for the fan provided. Beds very comfortable, ample towels and all kitchen/bathroom facilities and equipment working and in good clean condition. Great location, very very close to city centre, station (West) and the Goods Shed. No noise issues. Owner very responsive with queries.

The staff was amazing and so helpful. I had all my bridal party staying at the hotel and they went above and beyond. The breakfast was amazing (continental buffet -pastries were so yummy- and a nice selection of cooked breakfast on top). The location is great (4mn walk from Canterbury West and 3mn walk from the old city/city centre). The rooms are so comfy (bath in the bathroom and beds are the comfiest I've slept in, in a while)
