“Dated decor, but welcoming staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011 via mobile

Ersham court kindly put us up at the last minute as we'd booked at the coach house inn and they had problems with the bathroom. We were slightly disappointed to be further out and the rooms weren't as pretty, but luckily they agreed same room rate. To be fair for the quality of the room I wouldn't of wanted to pay full rack rate. The bed was comfortable and quiet, but the shower was a nightmare, either freezing cold or scoldingly hot. Breakfast was nice with a fair selection. On all fairly average, but nothing special

“Dirty and dated”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Myself and a couple of girlfirends stayed here on a Saturday night after visiting Canterbury for the day.

The owner was pleasant enought but the room we stayed in looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. The carpet needed a good hoover and there was dust on every shelf and flat surface.

It's a lovely building but needs a massive overhaul to bring it up to date.

On the whole it was just somewhere to sleep for us but I definitely wouldn't go back.

“Fine”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

I stayed at Ersham Lodge for one night with a friend during a visit to Canterbury. The room was fine, if pretty dated, and cleanliness average. The road outside is very noisy - it doesn't keep me awake, but might be a consideration for light sleepers. There was wireless internet, which I appreciated a lot. It's also conveniently directly on the bus line.

Breakfast was good, with a lot of fruit on offer. It was nothing special as far as B&Bs go, but nothing to complain about either.

“Loved it! Home away from home :)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2011

A 3 min drive from the station, the Ersham lodge is a warm welcoming little gem in Canterbury where you will feel instantly right at home. The best thing about this quaint little place would be the breakfast, but despite the delicious, filling meal the breakfast is outshined only by the excellent hospitality of the hosts.

The rooms are clean and nicely decorated, also kind of roomy by UK standards; loads of magazines in the lobby. The lodge is 5 mins walk to the centre of town, great shopping and overall great fun.

Canterbury is a wonderful escape, I was there over graduation. The Ersham lodge is by far the best value for money stay I have had anywhere in the world, loved it! Will definitely be back!
