Hampton by Hilton Canterbury
Hotel and room were excellent; neighboring guests were young and loud. Lots of screaming, laughing , playing music long into the night. We were just too tired to say anything. That won’t prevent us from staying again, but we can tell Canterbury even in winter is a weekend party town.

ABode Canterbury
Very friendly and helpful staff, good sized room in a great location. Lovely to have all the expected amenities including bath, hairdryer, wifi and tea and coffee. Only two gripes - I struggled to get more than a lukewarm shower, and there quite a lot of noise from within the hotel.
