House Of Agnes

We decided to stay at The House Of Agnes for our 26th wedding anniversary and we are so glad we did. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, it was perfect. The staff are lovely too and very helpful and they really made us feel at home. We stayed in stableroom no.7 and it was adorable ! Little things like the tray to put your wet shoes in and the umbrella if it was raining when we walked to the main hotel. It was very clean and the hosptality tray had everything we wanted including biscuits ! The underfloor heating in bathroom was a nice touch too. On the first day we had the full english breakfast which was delicious and on the second day we had eggs on toast which again was lovely. The breakfast room was so quaint and cosy. Only thing i would change was the plastic dining chairs but this is purely personal. Probably the chairs are easier to clean being plastic. The hotel has a serve yourself honesty bar which was delightful and there was a gorgeous area to sit and relax or play games etc. The outside grounds are lovely too. House of Agnes is about 10 to 15 minutes to Canterbury Cathedral. Me and my husband both have mobility issues but it was such a nice walk for us and we managed fine. I have quite a busy life and sometimes it can be quite stressful but after staying at House Of Agnes i actually feel like i have recharged my batteries ! Such a calm and peaceful place to stay. I cant wait to stay again maybe this time in the catherdral room ! Thankyou to everyone for a ten out of ten stay.

My daughter and I shared a twin room while checking out Canterbury as a potential university choice and Christmas shopping. The room was spotless, very comfortable and the heating and underfloor heating in the bathroom was appreciated in the cold snap that weekend! Breakfast is ordered the night before and the service was great, very well organised and efficient. The honesty bar is a great idea and well stocked. The location is great, nice and quiet but a two minute walk into town. Great to have central parking too although the entrance is not for the faint hearted! We loved the history of the place and weren't disturbed by any Roman ghosts, in fact slept like the dead, the beds were so comfortable and room so cosy! Really glad we have found a good base in Canterbury and will definitely stay again 😊

What a gem. The hotel is situated within walking distance of the city walls. We stayed in one of the stable rooms. Immaculately clean. With a lovely bathroom with a heated floor. An umbrella incase it was raining when we went across to breakfast. A dvd player in the room with a library of films available to borrow. The main hotel was quaint and our welcome was very friendly. There's an honesty bar where people can help themselves to alcohol, soft drinks or hot drinks and the cost is added to the bill. A lovely seating area to enjoy your drink or take it back to your room. Breakfast was amazing, continental or full English or both. The waitresses were lovely. We will definitely be returning. |As a foot note, the parking area is behind the hotel, access to which is through an archway between buildings. My Nissan Qashqai was a tight fit but anything bigger might struggle or not fit. My friend who recommended this hotel drives a huge car she used a local car park without any issues.

Our stay at House of Agnes couldn’t have been better. The Marrakesh Suite we stayed in was a cosy two rooms and had two bathrooms. The location was perfect, only two minutes from Canterbury West station, and a minute from Westgate, so ideal for bars, restaurants and the cathedral. It had a well-stocked and priced honesty bar. The service was great, all the staff friendly and helpful. Recommended.

Stayed here New Years Eve with my husband and friends. Was totally amazed with everything about the hotel. Wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. Rooms were spotless, extremely comfortable beds, great shower. We stayed in the Mumbai Room and our friends stayed in the Shanghai Room. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, from full English to continental, all freshly prepared and the honesty bar was fantastic. The entrance to the car park is quite narrow but you are pre-warned about this when booking and with a follow up email before your arrival. Will definitely come again and will let friends know about this lovely place. Jackie and Clive Vick

Steeped in history, beautifully decorated with themed city rooms. Several cozy guest areas thoughtfully arranged with a fully equipped honesty bar, books, DVDs, comfortable seating etc. Very comfortable bedding and everywhere squeaky clean. Preorder breakfast was great and had daily specials. My cheese and chive omelette was awesome.|The location is perfect, about an eight minute walk to the cathedral through cobbled, pedestrianised streets with lots of quirky shops and eating places en route. |What an interesting city. Plenty to see.|Safe car parking on site too.|All the staff were delightful, friendly, efficient and welcoming.

A wonderful place to stay, our stable room was really comfortable, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast both days was delicious and cooked to order. There is a huge selection of places to have an evening meal near by or you can bring in a takeaway and the hosts very kindly provide cutlery and plates. The honesty bar is a great idea and has a good selection of alcoholic and soft drinks. Be aware you need nerves of steel to get your car through the entrance, luckily my partner drove us in & out. Overall we can't recommend this place enough.

Well located near the West Gate, 5 minutes walk from Canterbury West train station. Lovely characterful old building with a gorgeous garden - a little oasis in the City Centre. We stayed in the old stables. Beautiful room with a very comfortable bed and quality linen. Delicious breakfast with the option of a 'special' every day. They don't do evening meals, but there are plenty of take aways and restaurants within easy walking distance and you are able to bring a take away back and eat in the lounge/bar area where there is an 'honesty bar', though Sainsburys is opposite should you prefer to avail yourself of their beverages. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We wouldn't stay anywhere else when visiting Canterbury.

A lovely, traditional B&B with all it's charm and character left in place! This B&B is sweet, cosy, warm and goes the extra mile by providing all the essentials for free such as tea, shampoo and conditioner, soap, biscuits and also an umbrella, which came in very useful when it rained on our trip! Breakfast here is a great as there are a few options to what you can have. The rates for this B&B were great considering Canterbury is so popular! It was a really nice play to stay and I would recommend it to anyone!
