Fab stay
We had an excellent stay, the staff at the front desk and bar were very friendly, attentive and courteous, breakfast was very nice, plenty of choice , and evening meal which we ate on two consecutive nights were lovely, even the chef came out to check how the food was and prepared the food to our liking; we would highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting Canterbury which is 5 mins drive away.

Business trip to Canterbury
One of the best Holiday Inn Express Hotels I've stayed in - the staff were amazing, extremely pleasant, efficient & spoke to every guest. A big shout out to the chef, I was very surprised at how good the food was - make sure you try the sweet potato & chickpea curry - delicious. I would highly recommend this place.

Very clean, good staff, needs Fairtrade!
The hotel has a high standard of cleanliness. Staff are helpful and friendly. The room for 3 is pleasant but very cramped. The addition of Fairtrade tea, coffee, sugar would be brilliant - and Fairtrade chocolate and bananas too, please!

We stayed here on our way to Dover ferry port. We were very impressed with the staff who were all very helpful. We had to leave early to catch our ferry and were very impressed that the staff let us take some pastries in to go bags and coffees in our flasks from the breakfast buffet!
