Located close to Canterbury on the A2 the Holiday Inn express is perfectly located for visiting the surrounding area. A short drive to Dover, Deal and Margate to name but a few places. The hotel itself is situated on a service station but easily accessible. Upon arrival check was slow considering there was one person ahead of me and I... More

We had an end room which was very clean and great value for money at GBP 65 per night incl. breakfast for 2 of us. Breakfast was fine. I have stayed in bigger and more luxurious places, but this is great value. It is right on the edge of Canterbury and great for visiting the town or your kids at... More

As you may know Holiday Inn's slogan used to be 'No Surprises' - meant in a good way - that's what we got...a clean room, comfortable bed, helpful staff, decent breakfast and fair price. We were visiting several locations over a few days and this was the perfect home base for Hern Bay, Whitstable, Margate and Ramsgate as well as... More

Have stayed in this hotel a few times. The staff are very friendly and extremely helpful. Asked for extra blankets which were delivered to room promptly. Very clean, very convenient and will stay again.

So got into Canterbury only to be taxi'd out of Canterbury again and out to a services on the A2, To get to the hotel you also have to go past the hotel to the next junction and turn round. You want to be sure that you bring a car if you stay here as it's £10 each way in... More

Curtains in the room had a 6 inch gap between them, so had the security lights shining in my face all night. However we arrived at 2am and check in was polite and efficient. All staff were courteous and I would probably stay here again due to the good value for money and convenient location. Just steer clear of room... More

This hotel was about half the price of the others, The hotel was clean and the room was very comfortable, Staff were very helpful and friendly and there was a good choice for breakfast. I would definitely stay there next time we're in Canterbury.

Stayed here while in the area for a friend's birthday. Good location for visiting a few things around Kent. Very good value. Only downside was the heater in the room only seems to work when occupied with the keycard in. This meant that we came back to a cold room after an evening out which was a bit disappointing. Very...

Excellent value for money, rooms were spotless and well equipped. Family of 4 stayed and there was plenty of room. Free breakfast was great. Staff were very friendly. Plenty of choice in restaurant and reasonably priced. We were on our way back from Eurodisney. Would recommend highly.
