FAQs about hotels in Canterbury
Heavenly Heritage and Literary Legend
Canterbury’s religious and historic significance has inspired literary greatness. Chaucer’s ‘Canterbury Tales’ were based on pilgrimages to the bygone shrine of Thomas A Becket, who was murdered here. The Marlowe Theatre is named after the 16th-century playwright born here, and the Canterbury Museum has an exhibit on Rupert Bear, whose author lived in this River Stour city.
River cruises and punting provide fantastic views of the striking weavers’ houses right on the water, and of Westgate - the UK’s largest city gate. Other sections of the city walls remain, and there are also ruins of St Augustine’s Abbey, named after the 6th-century saint who brought Christianity to England. He was the first Archbishop of Canterbury, but the modern-day seat is the UNESCO World Heritage-listed cathedral, dating to the 12th century.
From the same period are the Norman castle ruins, occupying the site of a wooden fort constructed by William the Conqueror. The mound they sit on in Dane John Gardens is thought to be a Roman cemetery, and an original mosaic is visible in the Roman Museum.
In the Buttermarket half-timbered houses and historic inns are interspersed with shops, and big name brands line the Whitefriars Shopping Centre. The Canterbury accommodation on Booking.com includes luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap hostels and city centre B&Bs.

Canterbury is 'bathed' in much history and archcitecture that reminds of you how well and asthetic thinking went into buildings made a few hundred years ago. Restaurants tea/coffee rooms are abundant. Good shopping area with all you could wish for. Make the most of culture with a museum etc, two theatres and some great pubs with lots of character!!!!! Find 'The Parrot' pub (14th century) out of the way but well worth a visit! Don't forget the cathedral - beautiful...even if you only look at it from the outside! We are 'city freaks' and so glad we made sure that Canterbury was an experience we haven't missed! You can easily get a train to Margate and other destinations.,Guest review byKerryUnited Kingdom - 10.0
The cathedral was fantastic.
The cathedral was fantastic. The light and sound show was very atmospheric and worth the money. Good range of shops and luckily our hotel had its own parking although that was an extra cost. All in all it was a great short break (3 nights). We come from suburbs of London so it was only an hour and a half drive.Guest review byMarilynUnited Kingdom - 10.0

We loved the set up of the shops and restaurants in the city within all the old buildings which looked stunning. The cathedral visit was wonderful with a guided tour lasting about an hour and a half which was well worth the additional £5, better than the audio tour.Guest review byYvonneUnited Kingdom - 8.0

We found people we came into contact with friendly and helpful,particularly at the hotel,on the boat trip we had and particularly at a restaurant called Marlowe’s just opposite the hotel,lovely food and delightful staff. Getting round the city on foot is easy,by car it’s more problematicalGuest review byJudithUnited Kingdom - 10.0
We very much enjoyed touring Canterbury.
We very much enjoyed touring Canterbury. We walked about the old town, had tea and scones, toured the Cathedral and participated in the 530 Evensong and then had a nice pub dinner at the Parrot Pub. We walked along part of the city walls. Highly recommended for history.Guest review byGordonUnited States - 10.0

Canterbury is nothing short of enchanting—a city where history, culture, and modern vibrancy blend seamlessly. From the moment you step into its cobbled streets, you’re greeted with a sense of timeless charm. The awe-inspiring Canterbury Cathedral dominates the skyline, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that leaves visitors humbled by its grandeur and spiritual presence. Walking through its nave and cloisters feels like traveling back through centuries of human story, pilgrimage, and devotion. Yet Canterbury isn’t just about the past. The city is alive with a thriving cultural scene, bustling independent shops, cozy cafés, and an excellent variety of restaurants that cater to every taste. The River Stour, winding gently through the heart of the city, adds a peaceful rhythm—perfect for a boat tour or a leisurely riverside stroll. The mix of ancient architecture and modern energy creates an atmosphere that is both inspiring and warmly welcoming. Beyond the city center, Canterbury’s proximity to the Kent countryside and coastline makes it an ideal base for exploring “The Garden of England.” With beautiful walking trails, vineyards, and charming villages nearby, the whole region feels like a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered. Whether you’re drawn by its literary heritage, its medieval streets, or its contemporary arts and dining, Canterbury truly has something for everyone. It’s a city that captures your imagination, soothes your soul, and lingers in your memory long after you’ve left.Guest review byKeithUnited Kingdom
