A simple B&B that does exactly what you expect. I'd happily stay there again.

Great value for money!
Close to Canterbury , shops a five minute walk at the most and pubs and restaurants even less.
We stayed in the garden room which felt bright and airy and it was lovely to sit in the garden with a glass of wine..
This isn't a pub anymore so there wasn't anyone to welcome us which wasn't a problem.. But breakfast had friendly staff and tasty food..
Our only small problem was getting our key code as we booked last minute, but after a phone conversation it was sorted straight away.
Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends..

The room was fine, the guy on reception (although new and not very experienced) was fine - my only issue was that the pub was closed the night we stayed - and I wasn't expecting that.... it would appear the pub is only open certain nights of the week and that is not made clear on their site... also parking is a bit of an issue as everywhere around is permit parking only. However it is a great location to walk into the city, and Canterbury is really lovely.

We stayed while attending a conference at the university. The location was excellent (close to the town center, easy to reach the university, close to the train station) and the hosts were very hospitable and easygoing! We stayed in the garden suite and really enjoyed the access to the garden from our room, which was also very comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic!

No wardrobe or even hanging rails available in the bedroom ??. Staff looked somewhat overwhelmed at breakfast, food hygiene was pretty much non existent. No apology from the staff either after a fire alarm went off at silly o'clock in the morning. Fully aware that sometimes these things can happen accidentally but an acknowledgement of interrupted sleep would've been welcomed Overall would have to say this was the least pleasant experience I've ever had whilst on a break either at home or abroad.
Don't be surprised if your expectations based on a half decent website don't marry up with the reality of staying there.

Very nice B&B! The staff is very service-oriented and kind!
The breakfast is delicious and made from scratch with fresh ingredients.
The hotel is located within a quick walk (5 mins or less) to the west train station and the city center.
I confidently recommend this place!

Overall very good, location was excellent for getting into town. Spotlessly clean and service was very friendly. They are very accomodating when it comes to breakfast. Only negatives was a small issue with the wifi and the lack if parking, but there was a very reasonable multistory around the corner.

Our room was very disappointing, The toilet basin was loose from the wall & leaking. The radiator we wasn't able to turn off & the weather was lovely and hot 17th & 18th Sept. We were banking, This was mention to the manager first thing in the morning.They did try & get there handy man in but no answer to his phone. second night even hotter didnt get much sleep both night, woke up in morning feeling very sick, The window was open & there was so much rubbish just outside the window that could have been cleared away. We didn't stay for breakfast due to us feeling unwell. I telephoned the manager later that day (Kirsty) & complained I said it wasn't expectable to let that Room 10 & I believe we needed so sort of a refund. Kirsty agreed & said that she would have to speak to the owner & would call me back, Guess what Kirsty didn't return my call so I call again - Kirsty said that The Black Horse wasn't letting out the Room on the 18th. She agreed that we should have a refund, But still hadn't seen the owner, Ha still wanting for that call its gone TWO WEEKS - And no call .

Complete shambles the self check in didn’t work also had no emails to guide through the process upon arrival.eventually gained access
The room I was finally allocated wasn’t cleaned dirty bathroom,bed not changed,bins not emptied etc telephoned the number on the desk and complained a very angry woman who was very rude arrived to clean the room thoroughly eventually got to bed after midnight!!
The third night I was awakened by a stranger opening my door via a digital key code and entering turning on all the lights telling me I was in her room and I had to leave because she had booked and been allocated it!!!
Was promised a refund and receipt and so far nothing
My advice is DO NOT STAY HERE !!!!!

While the young lady at the reception has been very kind and accommodating, sleeping at the Black Horse hasn’t been a good experience. Unfortunately there seem to be lots of constant noises going on at night, the fridge, the heating, noises from other rooms using hot water...it has all been very disruptive.
lt’s a shame because it’s a nice pretty B&B and the shower is very good.
