Top Royal Museum and Art Gallery Hotel Reviews

The Victoria Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was an excellent hotel helpful staff clean and well managed"

Cathedral Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"You couldn’t ask for a better location to see Canterbury. The staff was wonderful, breakfast was good, rooms very clean. However, it’s a 700 year old building with lots of stairs and uneven floors. If you like stepping back in time and don’t mind wonky, it’s a great place."

Hampton by Hilton Canterbury

10/10 Excellent

"Very well run, close to everything."

Castle House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well located for city centre visits, good transport links, as well ... & a private car park for guests, too! Booked one night this time but would be happy to rebook in future ."

"5*"

Canterbury Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a little gem of a find. Just a stone’s throw outside Canterbury city centre. Plenty of parking. Breakfast more than adequate. Room warm and spacious. Staff on hand to help if you need them. Will be staying here again when we pop down to Canterbury"

Corner House

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely room and had a very peaceful say. Breakfast in bed was really delicious and added to the relaxing vibes. Would recommend highly to others."

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."

Canterbury Cathedral Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I can not recommend this spot enough- first of all, every staff member is so warm and congenial. The room is beautiful, and the complimentary breakfast is table service (mind blowing to my American standards!). Being right in the Cathedral grounds puts you in the midst of everything but yet in a nice quiet oasis. Would come back just to stay here again."
