Friendly, extremely helpful staff made it a very pleasant stay. Room was comfortable, very clean. A bit noisy at night from outside sources, but it is city centre. Most of the night it was very quiet.

Hotel Abode is located in the heart of Canterbury on High Street its main thoroughfare and within walking distance of most major sights and great dining. The breakfasts at the hotel were excellent. The staff was polite and very responsive. A great stay!
Robert, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel!

Hotel is beautiful, bed very comfy. Modern and elegant looking hotel. Breakfast service was slow with a fair few orders coming out wrong, and no real instruction of what breakfast is included with the room
Charlotte, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We have stayed at the abode a lot of times although i think its time for an update to the decor

Central to town , lovely rooms , comfy bed
Dave, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was very friendly and super nice. Service was great. Good location if you visiting the town, walkable distance to train station and restaurant. Maybe the only downside if I have to say is the flooring was a bit old, so in the morning i could hear people walking upstairs.
Yuchen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice stay

Nice stay, great location. Room was a bit tired, hence reason for lower review. Staff were all very friendly and breakfast was good.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice hotel. I stay there quite regularly during the university term. Staff are very friendly and the area is of course the nicest part of Canterbury. Highly recommend the hotel.

Highly recommended

A lovely hotel with great staff, beautifully located for all the attractions in Canterbury. Room very comfortable and ver well equipped. Breakfast arrived cold but this was put right as quickly as possible.
Helen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable

Room was clean and bed very comfortable. Had to wait a while for breakfast but there was a lovely young man who couldn’t do enough for you. Shame I didn’t get his name but he was excellent. We had a lovely few days.
2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very misleading

I was under the impression this was an Enviable double room as per your images. But judging from the photos this is nothing like an enviable double room. I’ve even taken a recording to show how much smaller it is
Stefan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Near perfect

The stay was great, bedding comfortable, breakfast tasty. What was a really nice touch is the person at reception remembering my name. I'm not sure if that's part of the role, or my pink cat hoodie made me difficult to forget. The only negative is that the TV didn't have chromecast built in, so I couldn't watch youtube/netflix/prime/etc
Kirk, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice hotel with an excellent position in the town. Good combination of new and traditional decor. Nice room but the bathroom was a little “cosy” but adequate. The breakfast was very tasty but as everything was table served it was a little slower than weer used too. Definitely use again.
Chris, 2-night trip
