    A photograph of the start of Jewry Lane would have been helpful

    The directions for the car park could have been much better and that would have made our stay excellent. The sineage on the corner of Jewry Lane is so small and even when outside the carpark it is not obvious that this belongs to abode hotel. We ended up driving round and round in circles and ended up parking in Whitefriars car park at a cost of £3.75 and then walking to the hotel to ask how we find the car park. I had phoned the hotel earlier to check how long we had in the car park and was told that we should vacate by lunch time but it turned out we had 24 hours from our arrival time. Very misleading and frustrating.

    Great location.

    Location is perfect for the main shopping street and close to the cathedral. Hotel is fine. Decent wifi in the room. Comfortable bed and a good value stay.

    Lovely hotel, we had a bit of drama at the arrival however Neelum the lovely lady who was on reception was so helpful and sorted this out for us so we really appreciate that thank you she is an asset to your team! Rooms were clean and of good size, nice bar area with good selection of drinks and cocktails there was a deal on for 2 for £16 peach punch was lush! Good location right in the centre of Canterbury town

    Personal preference but the beds are VERY soft and (for me), not at all comfortable.

    Our room was clean and tidy, but looked a little tired, probably in need of a refurb at some stage.

    Hotel is in an excellent location for events in the town. We were attending an event at The Marlowe theatre and it is literally 5 minutes away. Hotel has a nice cocktail bar, although there is no draft beer available. Restaurant has recently changed to a Tapas menu. We enjoyed our meal, although as we ate early there were only a couple of tables occupied. Breakfast was excellent and having booked a B&B stay could choose anything from the menu.

    The bathroom had issues. However, nothing that means it cannot be used and we have let the hotel know. The Maintenance man is excellent and I'm sure the issues will be sorted. Didn't like the £18 per night for parking. But bearing in mind the great location and convenience of parking behind the hotel it was probably no more expensive than anywhere else. Guests should be aware that they cannot reserve a space and space is very limited.

    All good. Excellent, friendly staff who did all they could to help in anything we needed. Great restaurant and breakfast was excellent. Loved the very large room and 2 metre bed. The room was very clean.
