Cathedral Gate Hotel

All our rooms are unique. They either have four-poster beds, sleigh beds, or beds without a foot-end for the taller person. Some of the rooms have walk in showers, others baths and showers or a bath only. Some face the rear of the hotel, some the Cathedral and some have a street facing view. For those on a tighter budget we also have rooms with shared bathroom facilities.

Canterbury is a historic Cathedral city which lies on the Great Stour and is encircled by ancient Roman walls. The city is host to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites including the Cathedral itself, the ruins of St. Augustine's Abbey and St. Martin's Church which was built in Saxon times. Today Canterbury offers a wide variety of attractions from the award winning Marlowe Theatre, to numerous restaurants, bars and fantastic shopping! All within walking distance of our hotel. The Cathedral City of Canterbury was a pilgrimage site in the Middle Ages.
