Great staff, great quality breakfast, good location. Rooms are a bit tired but you expect this for the price. I did question whether the sheets had been changed since the last guest after finding hair in the bed. Also stains on the bedding. Otherwise no complaints.

I don’t think I should have to request that our room be serviced, it should be standard procedure unless I request otherwise. When I did ask for it to be serviced I returned at 11pm and nothing had been done!

Reception staff were very pleasant, professional and helpful. The parking wasn't THAT easy because it was quite full at times and this was due to the restaurant in the hotel being VERY popular; both at weekends and during the week (no criticism from me and my wife). Reasonably convenient to Canterbury town centre from a walking POV

The room was quiet, clean and spacious. The full english breakfast kept us going all day and there was plenty of choice for every taste. We had the carvery and it was delicious, definitely worth trying. All the staff were friendly and made us feel welcomed during our stay. There us a large car park at the rear of the property. The location was great, we walked into Canterbury within 15 minute. If we beed to return to tue area, we will definitely come back to the Victoria.

This hotel has lovely staff, who are very friendly and helpful. Our room was very spacious, clean and had everything you needed. The restaurant was very good, it has a bar area where you can sit to have a drink. The breakfast was very good, so hot and fresh. I would say it could do with a little luck of paint in areas but I will definitely go back. It is a short walk into the town, so you are away from all the noise but close enough to walk there. I must say it had all his Christmas decorations up and it looked very festive.
