Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel
About this property
In 2 acres of landscaped gardens, Abbots Barton Hotel has a traditional restaurant and elegant rooms with free Wi-Fi. The hotel is just outside Canterbury centre, half a mile from Canterbury Cathedral.
The bright, spacious bedrooms are individually decorated, and each has a flat-screen TV. All rooms feature a modern bathroom with free toiletries.
The Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel is just a 5-minute walk from St Lawrence Cricket Ground. There is free on-site parking, and Dover Ferry Terminal is just a 20-minute drive away.
Please note that our restaurant will be temporarily closed due to refurbishment. However we warmly invite you to experience the welcoming atmosphere of our newly renovated Westfield Bar. Unwind in its stylish and comfortable setting while enjoying a diverse array of food and beverages. Whether you're in the mood for light bites, hearty main courses, stone-baked pizzas, or delectable desserts, there's something to satisfy every craving.
Join us for breakfast in our Fountain Room, where you can enjoy a continental buffet alongside a selection of hot breakfast options.
