Sandwich

"We recently attended a nearby wedding and stayed at The Five Bells, an amazing family-run pub and B&B. The family room was spacious, spotless, and well-equipped, with complimentary toiletries that were especially appreciated as we’d forgotten ours at home. Mary and her daughters were incredibly warm and welcoming, making our stay even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend this lovely place."

Top Canterbury Hotel Reviews

Keynes College - University Of Kent

8/10 Good

"Had a really good stay at Keynes college and I think the price reflects the downsides . My room was far better than I was expecting so a good start . The shower and facilities offered in the bathroom with gel etc was a good touch . It’s 1.5 miles from central Canterbury which isn’t a problem if you’re able bodied and a bus leaves outside on the main road every 20 mins or so . The only downside was a cob web in the ceiling corner and a very average buffet breakfast which had been kept warm too long and dried out , but I considered the breakfast a bonus for the overall inclusive price . Still edible dont get me wrong but not the best . One last detail was the mattress which could have had a softer feel to it . But for the money? Worth every penny"

ABode Canterbury

8/10 Good

"Great location and staff. Spacious room but pretty scruffy. I’d stayed in an Abode (Exeter?) years ago and it was a real treat, absolutely lovely. But sadly this felt quite run down. The decor was really naff in the room and bar. 3 star maybe, but definitely not 4. If I stayed again, I’d go for a better room. It could be so nice, really hope it gets the refresh it deserves."

Greyfriars Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Sanjeewa was very accommodating and friendly a wonderful host. This is a very basic hotel but you cannot fault it, clean and has everything you need, a great option for an affordable city break. Breakfast was a bonus and had a good little selection. The location is fantastic!!!!! Already booked again 👍"

The Victoria Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel location is great, only a short 10 minute walk into Canterbury, and access main roads easily. The breakfasts are very good, fresh and with a wide choice to pick at. The restaurant is well set out, comfortable and very appealing. The menu has a good choice of meals, not too extensive, making choosing easier, and a brilliant dessert list, 😋 We ate here both nights and no complaints what so ever about any of it. 👌 Good bar, nice choice of drinks with comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. The rooms are very clean and tidy, with all you need, and tea facilities. All the staff were brilliant, polite, helpful and attentive. Nothing was too much for them. Good sized car park at the rear. Would recommend the Victoria and look forward to returning there."

Cathedral Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel’s location right next to the entrance to the Canterbury Cathedral is unbelievably convenient. The hotel is beautifully decorated and maintained. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming and go out of their way to help and make your stay an unforgettable experience! Rob, the owner personally offers you the delicious breakfast that you can enjoy while having the most beautiful view to the bustling main street. Do not hesitate to book your stay at Cathedral Gate"
