⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an amazing stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and full of thoughtful touches that made me feel right at home.

Cockpit cottage is a lovely place to stay with a dog before catching the Eurotunnel by car. The rooms are beautifully appointed and there is a common living area to share with other guests. I had the place to myself. You can make tea and coffee in the kitchenette and delicious food is available in the pub next door. There are many walks in the area to exercise your dog or to get some fresh air after a drive.

    Everything about Gingerbread Cottage was immaculate. Superbly fitted out, extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean. We were surprised (& delighted) to find we had been left a wonderful welcome pack, delicious brownies, bottle of wine, crisps, milk etc. The location is ideal, a very quiet street with good footpath access to the city and easy walking to shops and cafes in St Dunstans. Altogether would highly recommend.

    The Hotel was located in an ideal location in the grounds of the beautiful Canterbury Cathedral. Included in the room rate was free entry into the Cathedral. All the staff were very polite, friendly and courteous. The room although on the small side was very clean withy a good view. The breakfast menu was extensive and very nice and for the first time i found a hotel that knew how to prepare scrambled eggs well.

    A great central location, close to shops and bars and a very short walk to Canterbury cathedral. The reception staff were very helpful and took their time to explain everything. They were very professional when dealing with my complaint over the housekeeping. The hotel was very clean and tidy, a good priced bar and an excellent all you can eat buffet breakfast. Lots of choice and fresh hot items added all the time. An extra bonus was the waffle maker!.

    Fantastic location, right in the heart of Canterbury. we always stay here when we visit our son in Kent. Rooms are spotless, staff always friendly and can’t complain about the breakfast which is just right. The only thing I would say is request a room away from the bar that is right next door, as they play their music loud and you can hear it from some rooms. You pay more that some budget hotels, but then a lot less than other hotels, so worth the price,
