    This place is marvellous. The service is amazing, the staff are kind, the room is cozy and beautiful, not to mention the history of the building itself. I really enjoyed my stay, and would definitely come back if I ever visit Canterbury again.

    Wonderful stay every thing was brilliant only one point it did need a USB socket for phone charger but this is minor, and did not change my overall rating

    The decor in the corner house was very tasteful and the breakfast delivered to the room was lovely. The property was just outside the city wall, so quiet, but close enough to all the shops and restaurants with the cathedral within walking distance.
