“This is a great option for those looking for a quiet location that's still close to the heart of Canterbury. I particularly appreciate that it is pet-friendly and offers free parking, which is a real advantage so close to the city center. I think its gothic architecture gives the hotel a unique character that blends well with its modern amenities.”
