I had a romantic getaway with my partner and the experience at the Hamptom by Hilton was simply glorious. Excellent location, amazing attentive staff, they allowed us to stay in the lounge for as long as we needed on our last day. The breakfast was abundant with excellent food and variety, very tasty! Canterbury is a beautiful town and this hotel added so much to the whole experience.

    Location is great in centre of tiwn but down a fairly quiet side street. The guy who was on duty was very helpful, setting up parking for us. Thank you. It has the look and feel of a budget hotel but was more expensive than that.

    Fantastic location, right in the heart of Canterbury. we always stay here when we visit our son in Kent. Rooms are spotless, staff always friendly and can’t complain about the breakfast which is just right. The only thing I would say is request a room away from the bar that is right next door, as they play their music loud and you can hear it from some rooms. You pay more that some budget hotels, but then a lot less than other hotels, so worth the price,
