The Falstaff Hotel

8/10 Good
"We had one night in Canterbury, we spent Sunday shopping along the High Street and then had a meal out at the local Weatherspoon's (at the end of the hotel car park). The hotel was beautifully clean. We had a good nights sleep and woke to have an amazing full British. All we could ask for... Car parking is £15.00 for the day-night which is done on the smartphone and nothing to do with the hotel so you must be Techie Savvy to park. Overall and excellent experience and exceptionally close to the high Street for shopping."
