Pros:
Cons: Disappointed that the fire alarm went off twice, no hot water in the morning, and they only took off 20% off one night of the hotel bill. Besides that it was good
5.4 OK
Pros: Can't beat the location.
Cons: Front desk staff were very unprofessional. One man at the front desk argued with me when I complained about a slamming door that kept us up all night, rather than trying to help! I had to investigate myself to solve the problem. Staff could use some lessons in hospitality. Also, I had to ask for my baby's cot 3 times, before it finally arrived at 10PM.

Pros: Good food and comfortable beds. Very friendly and efficient staff
Cons: Carpets needed cleaning!

Pros: The hotel was charming! The room was large with big windows. The facility was very clean. The location was perfect - central to the attractions. The walk to Canterbury Cathedral was about 5 minutes and the train station about 10 minutes. The staff was very accommodating - we arrived early and were able to check into our room early as well. The staff allowed us to leave our bags after we checked out and were very kind to us. The breakfast was great and included in the price. We loved our stay here!

Pros: The hotel was charming! The room was large with big windows. The facility was very clean. The location was perfect - central to the attractions. The walk to Canterbury Cathedral was about 5 minutes and the train station about 10 minutes. The staff was very accommodating - we arrived early and were able to check into our room early as well. The staff allowed us to leave our bags after we checked out and were very kind to us. The breakfast was great and included in the price. We loved our stay here!
Cons: I have nothing negative to say about our stay.
With a stay at Peregrine House in Canterbury, you'll be just steps from The Canterbury Tales and Royal Museum and Art Gallery. The front desk is staffed during limited hours.
With a stay at Sun Hotel in Canterbury, you'll be just steps from Canterbury Roman Museum and Canterbury Cathedral. The front desk is staffed during limited hours.

Pros: The owner is so helpful and personally fixes your breakfast. Ask for the Becket room- it has a tempurpedic bed and an en suite bath! The hotel is right next to the cathedral and central to everything. Both train stations are an easy walk from the hotel.

Pros: The atmosphere, the staff, the room (!), the location, the calm, everything!
