This historic Pilgrims Hotel is located in the heart of Canterbury City Centre, making it a perfect location next to The Marlowe Theatre and a short walk to the Cathedral. The continental breakfast was good and hearty with lots of options. We appreciated staff help with luggage as the hotel has no elevator. The room was spacious and given the weather was warm during our 3-night visit, we were glad to have a fan in our room. The staff was very helpful and accommodating.

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 an historic city, as such is easy to get around ancient streets, very intimate centre. For me the Lovely Cathedral is the jewel in the crown, and from the Hampton by Hilton Hotel is a few minutes walk, I could see the Spires from room windows.. This hotel has a rooftop restaurant and the views from there are spectacular, I went for a look.
As I travel alone I usually eat at M&S Cafes or similar, and if I need anything else take back sandwiches to hotel. I can recommend Canterbury for a visit, I got train from London St, Pancras to Canterbury West Station, hotel 10 mins walk or Taxi £7,00.

The Cathedral is awesome.
The Cathedral is awesome. Plenty of places to eat and drink....the Cafe du Soleil stood out the food was very good and the staff where friendly & professional. We loved walking around Canterbury, lots of green spaces, side roads that led you on, our stay was too short so we didn't find anywhere that we would avoid.....we'll just have to go back!

Enjoyed the historic buildings and the lovely cricket ground which was the reason for our visit.
We ate at a variety of places - good pub (The Two Sawyers), a turkish restaurant A la Turka and the Weavers.
Canterbury was compact and good to walk around.
Only have to avoid the numerous food delivery cycles

Canterbury is one of those rare British cities that has retained its character as it somehow escaped being wrecked by appalling postwar planning decisions. The relatively few modern buildings, like the Marlowe Theatre, are of high quality, at least from the outside. It's a comfortable size to stroll around (and flat) plus it has the two arms of the river to add interest and the opportunity to punt or take a boat tour. Hard to say whether there are more pubs or churches - there are lots of both, so if you don't want to pay for entry to the cathedral there are other historic buildings to see. Didn't bother with the shopping centre so can't pass judgement on its value as a place for shopping - there'll be the usual boring 'high street' chains, no doubt; I did notice a few independent shops in the High Street as well. The tea shops we came across are insanely expensive so are probably best avoided if you're on a budget. We ate at The Old Weaver's House and had a superb meal - their pies are worth a trip to Canterbury alone! The Beaney House museum etc looks interesting and is free - we just explored the front room which has some fine 19th century paintings. Probably worth a more detailed investigation on another visit.

A beautiful historical place to visit the cathedral is a must £17.00 admission per person but that entitles to visit a full year as many times you like the old cobblestone streets are beautiful with little hidden shops.Afternoon tea in Tiny Tim’s is also a place to visit
This is the 3rd time that I have stayed at The Maidens Chambers and on each occasion, the welcome has been warm, the rooms comfortable and spotless and the facilities are all that you need for an overnight stay. The hotel is located on the edge of the city centre, but that brings with it the benefits of free parking on site and all that Canterbury offers is within a very short walk.
Continental breakfast was very good with excellent choice of food available. Staff very friendly and helpful. Loved the city centre location so close to the many attractions Canterbury has to offer, and literally right opposite the Marlowe Theatre which couldn't be more convenient when seeing a show there. My second stay at the Pilgrim Hotel and will definitely be back!
The breakfast menu is expansive with options ranging from continental to a traditional English breakfast. The staff was extremely friendly and always willing to help. The location of the hotel is not too far from Canterbury City, and you can walk through picturesque neighborhoods and a beautiful park to reach the high street.
the hotel is very clean in all areas. located a short walk from city centre. the swimming pool is an added bonus. love that there is a bar/ lounge area and a lovely beauty therapy room where you can have a relaxing massage or pedicure. the court yard garden area is lovely when the weather is good enough
The hotel is wonderfully situated in the centre of Canterbury. It's a budget hotel and we did not have very high expectations. However, the staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. Overall, the place feels a little tired but, for one night, it's absolutely fine. Free.e Wifi was a bonus
The hotel is located about 3 miles from Canterbury centre with no bus service. There is however a park and ride at Wincheap for £4/day with very frequent bus service into town centre.
The breakfasts at the hotel are excellent and the dinner menu good value for money.
room was massive. Wasn't too sure about staying in a pub but the room upstairs was clean and comfortable. felt more like a proper hotel. the toilet was huge. really good location (right on top of an affordable pub that opens until late) and right in the city centre.
My partner and I really enjoyed our stay here. The breakfast was exceptional, our room was spacious, lots of parking space and location was great just walking distance from the Canterbury's tourist spots. Staff were friendly and accommodating.
For me, the location is perfect -- across from the Cathedral and in the heart of old Canterbury. It was simple, comfortable, and welcoming. From here I could walk over during the day for the different services -- Perfect!
Wonderful historic building right next to the Cathedral entrance and in the historic old town. Very convenient for the city centre shops in the mostly pedestrianised shopping area. 15 min walk from Canterbury West Station.
it’s in the city centre and has parking ( charged ) so is ideal for those wishing to explore Canterbury on foot. it is an individual hotel with a nice size rooms , not a chain ( or at least I don’t think it’s a chain ).
Lovely refurbished hotel. Ten minute walk into city centre so easily accessible to shops and restaurants. Staff very accommodating. Good reasonably priced food served in on site restaurant and comfortable bar area.
Great location; walking distance to town centre. We were able to walk from the hotel to most of the places visited. Excellent staff. Parking area was neat and tidy. We loved the environment.
Finding a place with parking in Canterbury is so difficult, but this place has it: on top of that its a nice place to stay the staff are lovely and its exactly what I needed for a Work trip.
The local of the hotel is excellent, in the city centre but a quiet area. It is a new hotel and everything is very fresh and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful without exception.
It is right in the town centre, very convenient. Best to park car at station west car park for 10 pounds per day. Canterbury is a compact and beautiful town
