Advantages: Friendly staff, Close to the city, very clean Disadvantages: Heating was on full blast!
We stayed Friday - Sunday. We had no children with us, so can't comment on whether it was family friendly, but there were children staying in the hotel.
The hotel is very easy to find on the outskirts of the City. Plenty of parking, although I understand it can get busy when there are events on.
We were sent to the wrong room to start with but the staff were extremely sorry and helpful. The lift wasn't working but again staff checked more than once if we needed help with luggage.
The Bar is plesant and spacioust and open throughout the day for food or drinks. There is a 24 hour room service aswell. We were very impressed with the Hotel restaurant. The food was lovely and came without much delay. We ate 3 course meal in the evening (about £30) and full breakfasts (£13.50)

St Augustine was given a site in Canterbury to set up his church and this was St Martins, which still stands today.
This was given to him by the then King of England Ethelbert. This Church was used throughout the Roman occupation and in ...
Advantages: First rate entertainment Disadvantages: Not a single one!
I do not think that we laughed so much in ages! The animated Canterbury Tales is a masterful and extremely well done re-telling of Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.
The animation is better than first rate. The animations were undertaken by some of the top animators in Europe, made in Wales and Russia the production values were exceedingly good. It was almost possible to forget that they were animations, sometimes, the work was so exquisite.
The Canterbury Tales were written by Geoffrey Chaucer who was a scholar, a gentleman, a diplomat and also something of a 14th century secret agent. The Canterbury Tales was not entirely finished, but must be one of the most enduring pieces of fiction ever written in England.
The characters of the pilgrims who were taking part in the pilgrimage form London to Thomas a Becket's shrine in ...
