Information about Cathedral Gate

Dating back to 1438, the historic Cathedral Gate is in the heart of Canterbury. Once slept in by pilgrims, the hotel predates the adjoining gateway to Canterbury Cathedral and features wooden beams and sloping floors. The rooms feature a TV, telephone, and tea and coffee making facilities. Each room has a hairdryer, along with a shared or en suite bathroom. Some rooms have views of Canterbury Cathedral. In the mornings, Cathedral Gate serves continental breakfast. Full English breakfast is also available upon request. Free Wi-Fi is available in the breakfast room and all further public areas. The Cathedral Gate is just steps from the bustling Buttermarket and the cathedral precincts. The city is home to numerous high street shops and restaurants, which are within a 2-minute stroll. Canterbury West and Canterbury East Railway Stations are both just 15 minutes’ walk away.

Please note that despite the central location in the pedestrianised city centre, guests are welcome to drive to the hotel's front door for unloading prior to parking. Parking vouchers for the public car park cost GBP 6 for 24-hours parking. From 18:00 to 10:00, parking costs GBP 2. Please note that due to the nature of the building, there is quite a lot of stairs and no lift. Baby cots are provided upon request only. They are not guaranteed until confirmed by the hotel.
