Top Canterbury Hotel Reviews

ABode Canterbury

ABode Canterbury

10/10 Excellent
"Great location. The roads near the hotel were a tad bit confusing and narrow for drivers but we found the hotel car park eventually. Otherwise great location in the centre of town and close to restaurants and the Westgate Gardens. Hotel staff were friendly and make recommendations on places to visit."

Keynes College - University Of Kent

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"
