Wonderful

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.
Everything very good.. Hotel spotless. Staff veryfriendly snd helpful

Shower not working. Unable to sleep on worn out matteress. The staff very good food excellent. But disappointing. Second time of ysing hotel. Expected better
Ample parking behind the hotel. Good breakfast selection. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and very quiet. 15-minute walk to the cathedral and centre of Canterbury. Hotel is older and isn’t fancy but is a great value. Staff were all excellent. Would definitely stay again.
