Abbots Barton Hotel - Canterbury


Set within lawned gardens and only a 10 minute walk from Canterbury city centre, the Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel dates back to 1830 when it was originally built as a private home, in true Victorian Gothic style, becoming a hotel in 1927 and since expanding to its present size. The hotel is owned and operated by Castlewood Hotels, a small family run hotel group based in the South East of England.

The Hotel has 53 well appointed guest rooms, some with views of the Cathedral, consisting of standard, executive and deluxe room types offering all the mod cons expected by todays discerning traveller, whilst in-keeping with the style and charm of the building.

The Cathedral Suite offers luxurious air conditioned accommodation for up to 150 people for theatre style meetings, whilst smaller conferences can be accommodated in the Marlowe or Beckett Rooms. The Cathedral Suite is also ideal for dinners of up to 120, whilst larger functions can be accommodated in a marquee on the hotel's lawn. There are also facilities for boardroom style meetings or interviews for up to 14 delegates with free wifi throughout, provided by the Cloud. The Best Western Abbots Barton hotel is also a popular wedding venue, licensed to hold civil ceremonies.

The Cathedral's history goes back to 597AD when St Augustine, sent by Pope Gregory the Great as a missionary, established his seat (or 'Cathedra') in Canterbury. In 1170 Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered in the Cathedral and ever since, the Cathedral has attracted thousands of pilgrims, as told famously in Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.
