8/10 Good
"Peaceful and scenic dog friendly hotel within 30 minute drive of Eurotunnel. Hotel has a golf course as well as large grounds with fields to walk the dog. Quality of food at hotel was good & you can bring your dog in the bar area when having dinner from bar or restaurant menu. Food and drink was, however, a little pricey. The dog fee of £30 per night per dog, nearly put us off booking the stay, as we were traveling through Europe and staying at hotels in Germany, Austria, France, Italy where they charge only 10 or 15 EUR in dog fee per dog per night."

"We had a 'cozy' room, meaning tiny, but it was nicely furnished with a TV and nice bathroom with a strong shower. The receptionist staff was friendly and helpful, pointing out the happy hour at the bar. 2 for 1 deal plus a cheese plate. The hotel is centrally located with parking behind ( parking in Canterbury is expensive). Very close to the town center and restaurants. Decent breakfast choices. The 14th century building successfully marries old and modern."
