A real nice stay downtown Canterbury

Very friendly host who takes away all problems challenges during your stay and gives you good directions for staying in Canterbury. Breakfast is good and the rooms are classical English style well equiped (fridge for cooling your drinks and have a drink/aperative in the hotel room). If you go to Canterbury go here

The gentleman was so welcoming and accommodating. Had a lovely stay with a delightful breakfast. Some street noise but other than that a great place to stay. Beds really comfortable and room warm and clean. Mrs Fox

Great central location for a short break

My teenage children and I stayed just one night at the Greyfriars Lodge. It has a great, central location and the host, Sanjeewa, was very welcoming and helpful. Beds are very comfy too! Recommend this hotel for a short break. It is in need of some renovation but for a short time it is very acceptable.

Quant and close to theatre

Stayed in same room as before. Nice and clean. Was hot as no air conditioning but fan was provided. Quant and cheap, close to theatre. Everything you need for an overnight stay. Sainsbury's just up the road too for snacks.

Great location, decent value, get what you pay for

Great location. Just off high street, about 6/7 minute walk from either station, right next to Sainsburys express, and loads of restaurants bars etc Very dated interior, doesnt look like its had an upgrade since the 90s, and could do with a renovation, carpets a bit frayed etc. However, having said that, was clean, the owner was charming, and considering the location is very good value.
David, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Host was lovely however the rooms are dated and cramped. Shower was broken and the toilet moved when you sat on it. Great location needs a revamp
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

AVOID. Generally tired, old and run down. Half expected this for the price so not that bothered about that. the location was good. The problem.... bedbugs. Lots of the horrible little things. We've videos of them all around the room and unfortunately we didn't realise until the morning. It's clear there's been an infestation for some time - there's actually reviews that we missed discussing this. It's clear though that this recent infestation has also been going on for a while... pale grey dried blood stains were visible on virtually all linen (easy to see when you look for it). The hotel has ignored all attempts to discuss this issue.

We were warmly welcomed
Catherine, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Sanjeewa was a very welcoming host and very kind. We could have left our bags to collect later but we were due to leave Canterbury. It was quiet at night despite warnings of noise on the website. It is very convenient for the City, 5 minutes walk from both the Marlowe Theatre and the Cathedral. The rooms and decor are a little dated but perfectly fine for a short stay.

Charming place, with a very friendly and helpful Innkeeper. Perfectly located close to the Cathedral and the amazing centre of Canterbury.

8/10 Very good

For the price, it’s a solid and affordable option in Canterbury.
Miguel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a lovely old building and quite basic in terms of amenities but the best value for money if you want to stay in the city centre and have shops and pubs immediately around in Canterbury. Would definitely stay again when on a budget!
