My rating of the various features of the Canterbury Hostel are below. I would reccomend it to anyone. • Hostel – Couldn’t be better. Comfortable and clean. • Bike Shed - Secure • Breakfast – Sumptuous • Staff – Nothing short of brilliant Looking forward to our next stay.

After cycling all day, it was the perfect location to relax and clean up for a wander into Canterbury for dinner. Great accommodation and would recommend it to all. Breakfast was spot on. Excellent value for money.

Stayed as a family of five so payed for our own room (6 beds). Everything was just perfect and smelled new. Didn't have time for breakfast but it looked great. Lovely communal lounge with TV. Highly recommend.

There are tents in the back yard anbd the people staying here with their families use the kitchen (naturally) and you cannot move in the kitchen at meal times. Aditionally if... More

Canterbury YHA Hostel is as dirty and filthy as the Dover hostel used to be. (fortunately it was closed last autumn). There is greasy dirt everywhere. My bed was old and I fell out of it during the night, because the matress was worn out. The self caterers citchen is a complete mess. Dirt, dirt, dirt everywhere. The showers are... More

We stayed in the tent accommodation with access to the bathrooms and kitchen in the main house. The tent was large and quite new with comfortable mattresses and bedding supplied. The lounge room and TV area was good. The kitchen was large with plenty of gas cook-tops and utensils but hygiene left a little to be desired. There were lots... More
