Great city centre location. Lovely rooms, service and food (breakfast). The only drawback to the location being that it was very noisy at night - parties 2 doors down until 3am. But, no fault of the hotel. However, I would recommend the hotel otherwise.

Centrally located hotel with a nice bar which had live jazz music on Friday afternoons. The rooms seem fairly new in their decor and there was a nice comfortable bed. We were given the option of taking an accessible room as we booked very last minute and it was incredibly spacious and we didn't hear any noise. We didn't eat in the hotel.

Just an average hotel. Needs updating. Smells of damp and old smoke. Staff not great and the overall hotel was underwhelming.

Abode is in the middle of the high street, yet no noise was heard in my room. Canterbury is easily explored on foot. There is parking, but I came by train, and the west station is a 10 minute walk.

Went to the abode for our first wedding anniversary. On check in, the guest in front of my wife received a much warmer welcome- they were also here for an anniversary. The woman on reception was less friendly to my wife- despite the hotel also knowing this was our anniversary weekend (added to booking). The hotel room was cosy, but the bath didn’t work as some numpty had installed the taps too close to the wall and the previous guests hair was on the bathroom floor !

Location is in the heart of Canterbury so great location, walking distance for all attractions. Parking is hard and difficult we were lucky to get parking on site which is limited, but if that was not the case the parking is a good walk away. Which can be horrible if raining. It was very noisy in the hotel while we stayed sounded like the rooms above were moving all the furniture around. Because the flooring was polished wood no rugs or any other covering was noisy. We only stayed one night and did not have breakfast.

A lovely modernized medieval building. Wonderfully helpful staff, great room facing the Beany museum. On the first floor is a lounge very reminiscent of a Tudorish sitting room, beamed ceilings and all.
