The Crescent Turner Hotel, hotel in Canterbury

Located on Wraik Hill on the edge of the seaside town of Whitstable, The Crescent Turner is a modern property that offers beautiful sea views .

The staff very friendly & most helpful, Locatiom perfect with beautiful sea views. My room was very comfort and bed, pillows, quilt and bedding all great for a good nights sleep. Maybe a mirror in the room and on the dressing table rather than just the bathroom, but otherwise a lovely brief stay & will return.

Canterbury Cathedral Lodge, hotel in Canterbury

In the private and peaceful grounds of Canterbury Cathedral, this stylish lodge offers free Wi-Fi, hearty breakfasts and scenic views. Canterbury’s historic center is a 2-minute walk away.

The location inside the cathedral grounds is wonderful; among other things it entitles you to free reign to visit the cathedral during all opening hours, as often as you like. It is also quiet, away from the crowds in town

Cathedral Gate, hotel in Canterbury

Dating back to 1438, the historic Cathedral Gate is in the heart of Canterbury.

If you were going to stay at Cathedral Gate, make sure you stay in the room labelled “Joy“ because of the view of the cathedral! It also has a private bathroom with a nice tub to soak in at the end of a long busy day! Make sure you read the fine print because some bathrooms are shared. The property is centrally located and extremely convenient to everything!

    Absolutely beautiful.

    Absolutely beautiful. If you are Catholic, there is a Catholic church nearby to cover your obligations. However, you can also attend the services here to enjoy their inspiring chorus, homily, and venue. It is very well organized. The homily truly captured the message of Jesus. The message of love and good tidings. Absolutely fantastic

    Ir is no doubt a wonderful cathedral BUT access was only through a retail style info centre and a hard sell for the £15 entry fee (even for the outside) seemed excessive! There were scaffolding and large scale building works operating (for a few years we gathered!...) Try Norwich if you want a more friendly (Free) Cathedral and Close surroundings!

    It is built on so many different levels, unlike most Cathedrals which have a long aisle/chancel and then the altar, this has a long view along the main body, then steep steps to another level, and more steps up to the distant altar. The windows are dark, and let in little light. What also struck us was the way that strange broken pieces of stone carving were part of the structure, and had not been replaced/repaired: which looked so strange in a Cathedralmof such importance.

    I got some stunning photos of the outside as it was a lovely sunny day. It is a huge building, beautifully kept, with too many interesting things to take in all at once. Not only is there the inside of the building, but you can also walk round the outside and see some historical buildings in the precincts. Do allow plenty of time to see everything, it's well worth it.

    the location of the hotel was 100% perfect as we were a family of four attending our daughters graduation at Canterbury Cathedral. We were able to reserve two parking spaces outside the hotel in the Cathedral grounds and it made the whole day perfect.

    Breakfast was hearty to start the day, Dinner was very good with good prices, room was very clean and roomy, and plenty of parking with secure lighting. Great location to accomplish several short day trips in the area like seeing the Canterbury Cathedral, a restored Viking ship near Ramsgate. and a medieval castle like Dover Castle.

    This was an excellent hotel with proximity to Canterbury Cathedral. Although a 20-minute walk, the walk was through public gardens along the river. It was very pleasant. The rooms were big, comfortable and breakfast good. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

    Location was very convenient - a 4 minute walk from the Canterbury Bus Station and 3 minute walk from the Canterbury Cathedral. Breakfast selection and food quality was very good - one of the best I have had in a long time. Beds were comfortable and the room was quite large.

    The location of the property is ideal! Canterbury Cathedral, The Roman Museum, many charming restaurants and shops are practically on the doorstep. The bus and train stations are within easy walking distance. The house is off a very quiet street, behind another house and a locking gate. The property has character and a cozy electric fireplace. The owner allowed us to check in a bit early. Overall the property was comfortable and a great base to explore Canterbury and take day trips from.

    The location is excellent. Very quiet neighborhood. Close to shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and Canterbury Cathedral. The unit is very modern with nice appliances. Beds were comfortable. George, our host, was very kind and considerate. He picked us up from the train station. He answered all questions promptly and was willing to be flexible with our stay during the train strike.

    I couldn't have been closer to the entrance to Canterbury Cathedral, my main attraction. The breakfast was excellent. I DO like a real English breakfast. The room was larger than the average British hotel room--meaning that I could leave my suitcases flat on the floor and still walk around.
