Second stay here at the Falstaff in Canterbury, my favourite hotel in town, gorgeous rooms, lovely staff, and the free cheese and biscuits during happy hour can't be understated. Also you can tell a lot of a place in what they think of their customers by the quality of the bathrooms and the soap they use, The Falstaff exceeds all expectations, thanks for another wonder stay.

Lovely old Inn, room at the top of the main building was spotless. Bar and lounge areas great for a drink. Staff all very friendly. Breakfast excellent. Only downsides were lack of evening food options and pricey car parking.

Stayed one night in a superior room in main hotel. Was very spacious, but freezing cold. Radiator in room was only Luke warm, unfortunately did affect our enjoyment of stay. Breakfast was good, but again the room was freezing, people sitting in coats and hats! It was a freezing day, but they need to turn the heating up. Great location only a few minutes walk into Canterbury.
