The room was amazing. Absolutely original in style and very comfortable and clean. Easy access from the street... and very secure with state of the art locks! Management let me in at 12.30 even though the official time is 1pm. They were very friendly.

The hotel consists of 11 en suite bedrooms including a honeymoon suite complete with a spa bath and a family room. The cosy bar and restaurant provides a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy a drink from the local brewery. The hotel is graded 4 stars with the English Tourist Board.

The Millers Arms Inn has some members of staff who can speak Japanese, French, and Italian.

The location, close to the city centre with reasonably priced parking across the street. The pub is a nice place to be with a wide range of local ales, other drinks and food. Breakfast is perfect. The room itself was nice and cosy, clean and comfortable. Would definitely book again!

Set amongst historical Tudor buildings, Woolpack Inn is located just off the A28 road. Ashford can be reached in 20 minutes’ drive, and Canterbury’s picturesque centre and cathedral are a 15-minute drive away.

It’s a characteristic old building in a charming village, the food is excellent and the staff very kind. We also enjoyed a walk in the surroundings after dinner. The perfect place for the first (or last) night in England.

Located in Littlebourne and with Canterbury Cathedral reachable within 9.3 km, The Duke William provides a garden, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar. This 4-star inn offers barbecue facilities. The accommodation features evening entertainment and luggage storage space.

Everything! This is your quintessential pub stay in the garden of England. The quaintest little village. The pub is amazing, the food was incredible, we had dinner and breakfast. The people were so welcoming and friendly. The rooms are modern and decor lovely and the Chocolate Port in your room is a special touch. There’s nothing we didn’t like about the Duke William and we will be back.

    This is the fourth year that I've stayed at the hotel which speaks for itself. My room was large and comfortable and I was made to feel very welcome by the staff. The restaurant serves a good breakfast and a wide selection of food on the dinner menu. There's a comfortable lounge bar with outside areas at the front and back of the hotel. It's well situated just off the main road into Canterbury and within walking distance of the city centre and both railway stations.

    Booked small double and size wise fine as we were out most of every day. Very comfortable bed. Ensuite had plenty of hot water. Breakfast extremely good. Buffet for light or continental breakfast plus cooked English. Dinner carvery good value. A little noisy from traffic outside but not too bad overnight. Opening window was a big plus as we had warm weather. Lots of car park space so no problem parking.

    Historic inn in lovely village with a car park. We went for one of the bigger rooms with private bathroom (room 4), which worked well. Quiet, comfy bed, good bathroom. Breakfast and evening dinner very good, well stocked bar with local beers etc. Friendly and helpful staff.

    Room was comfortable but adjacent to the main road. Meals were what we have come to expect from Innkeepers Lodge and enjoyable.
