The Victoria Hotel

The Victoria Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We spent four nights here, the staff were all lovely, especially the breakfast staff. Our room was lovely, quiet considering it was close to a main road and roundabout. 10 minutes walk to the town centre, a map was provided. Large carpark. We had breakfast included which was continental and English. Restaurant was open at dinner time and evening. Food was lovely."

The Millers Arms

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay. The Millers Arms made our Canterbury experience even better. The room was clean and had all the amenities you could need. The people managing the property were extremely friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was amazing! But best of all was the location and the view of Solly’s Orchard from the room. Everything was barely a 5 minute walk from this place. Highly recommended if you want a great stay away from the busy market area."

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice old building, immediately adjacent to the entrance to Canterbury Cathedral ticket office. Centrally located on the Royal Mile. The main downside is that parking is about 1/4 mile away and Ubers and Taxis can only get you within 100 yards of the door"

Pilgrims Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Nice old building which was very clean. Lots of stairs so not so good for people with mobility problems. We had a leak in the bathroom from old radiator and toilet and were given another room without any hassle. Freedom to come and go as we pleased. Also parking deal so we could leave the car knowing it was quite safe. Staff were all very pleasant. The bar was good, staffed by receptionist so no bustling room but quiet and restful. We have been to this hotel three times now and find it very good for a quiet weekend."
