A friendly place
The Millers
Arms is well located in Cantebury. The rooms are small and need a bit of work, but the staff was very friendly. We like to play cards in the evening and they were very happy to have us stay at our table until they closed the restaurant. Very much appreciated. It is well located for the Cathedral and other sites in the area.

Worn out
Worn out! The hotel was in terrible shape. Our toilet never properly worked. We alerted the staff several times
Our door to the hall could barely open.
I really expect a refund.

Would definitely stay again, but hope they can fix the shower in the twin room as it was scalding and the temperature control was not working. Staff fabulous, food amazing and very clean. Parking convenient with special permit for 24 hour parking in car park opposite.

I enjoyed my stay there. It’s above a restaurant/pub and I was there in December so there were Christmas parties being held which made it a little loud but not unbearable. The food was very good. I would definitely stay there again.
