My wife and I stayed one night at the Millers Arms in August 2024. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were really friendly and nothing felt too much trouble. The room was clean, with a really comfy bed and some nice added extras (toiletries, biscuits, Nespresso machine). We stayed on a Sunday night and popped into the bar for a drink before we headed to the room. Even though it was getting close to closing time, the staff were more than accommodating and didn’t at any point rush us. There was a good selection of options at breakfast. We both had a Full English but there were plenty of other options to choose from! Parking was easy, although we paid for 48 hours when we were there less than 24. Overall, really good value for the money. We dont often take the time to write reviews but we really enjoyed it and would definitely stay again/recommend.

5 minutes walking to Canterbury cathedral, paid car park across the street. Included breakfast is good, as is the pub. Helpfull staff. Rooms are small, run down and sorely need renovation.

Good choice.
We had a very comfortable room for a reasonble price. It was surprisingly quiet considering the location in the centre of Canterbury. Parking is no problem. We were dissaapointed that the bar was shut by 9 PM and that even before that the real ale was not available.

Great location, friendly staff. Very old property so you expect that it is not as well equipped as a modern hotel but makes up for that with character.

Our room was located at the back overlooking the kitchen and flats, downside of this was the lack of privacy when in the room. Although there is a roman blind at the window, it is a black out, which you need to shut when getting ready. Would be better if there was some frosted vinyl adhesive on the glass, so you can at least get dressed in the daylight. The bed was too hard, but some people may prefer this. Breakfast and service at breakfast was excellent.

Great Weekend in Canterbury
Splendid 2 night weekend stay in Canterbury. Central but quiet location, a 5 minute stroll to the high street, even less to the Marlowe Theatre, very helpful staff and a great breakfast. Very importantly for Canterbury, it's just over the road from St Radigands car park which can be paid at a discounted rate at the hotel.

Overall a lovely stay. The room was nice, could do with a little bit of an update (handles missing from the wardrobe and the bathroom being a little tired) but a lovely view with a lovely welcome from the staff on checkin. The breakfast was great too, lots of choice and made really well. We very happily stay at The Millers Arms again. Thank you.

Lovely hotel/pub. Our second stay. Lovely room, a few rough edges. A little lacking in non alcoholic drinks/mixers. Breakfast lovely, staff attentive. We will stay again.

Great location and great family room.
We stayed in a family room on the top floor, which was a good size and had a lovely view of the cathedral. The pub is well located, it didn’t take us long to walk to the King’s mile shops and cathedral. It isn’t too far from the train station or Westgate park.

A wonderful overnight stay in Canterbury
This is a real gem in the centre of Canterbury. The staff were extremely efficient and friendly, showing us to our room in person - a nice touch. Our room was very pleasant and confortable with a large bathroom. We had a lovely dinner in the Millers Arms restaurant which was good value for money. The price of our room included breakfast which has a wide selection of different dishes. I went for the porridge: not bad but if it had included a couple of slices of toast would have been better. A great experience and I would definitely stay here again the next time we are in Canterbury.
