Great location but the hotel needs updating, bedroom was very dated with a few repairs needed. The owner was very helpful and lovely
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The owner sanjeewa 10/10 hospitality, very friendly welcoming and kind would definitely recommend
Katherine, 1-night trip

8/10 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.
Fiona, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

An OK value option

Odd smell in room, poor breakfast option, room was dated and bed uncomfortable. However, the single member of staff did a really good job trying to make us feel welcome. A slightly cheaper option than other stays in Canterbury.

6/10 Okay

Only desperate travelers need apply

Duvet covers stained, walls had food splashed on them, none of the furnishings had been updated for decades, the beds needed new mattresses, the shower gave either very hot or very cold water…
1-night trip

8/10 Good

The host Sanjeewa was really sweet and made sure our stay was very comfortable, the bedding and towels were clean and the rooms tidy, the only negative was the smell of damp in the bathroom when you opened the shower door but the water was very hot and I had a lovely shower.
Alison, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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

8/10 Good

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

christopher, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The room was a little cramped but for what we paid there was no reason to complain. Sanjeewa at reception was very efficient and kind and everything went smoothly
David, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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!
Charlotte, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Ideal for exploring

Location was perfect! The hotel was slightly outdated and could do with some upgrading, the shower has no attachment, breakfast was basic but plentiful, the room itself could have done with modernising however it was large and the bed was comfortable. Manager was lovely very accommodating looking after luggage until we was ready to go home. Ideal if your looking for something affordable as a base to explore from.

8/10 Good

Dated but clean and comfy!

A bit dated and tatty in places and breakfast is very basic. But a very comfy bed with clean crisp sheets and towels. Good nights sleep at the back of the property on the 2nd floor. Guy who checked us in was friendly and helpful. Overall it isn’t plush but great location and things that matter are there.
Nicola, 1-night trip
