This hotel location is great, only a short 10 minute walk into Canterbury, and access main roads easily. The breakfasts are very good, fresh and with a wide choice to pick at. The restaurant is well set out, comfortable and very appealing. The menu has a good choice of meals, not too extensive, making choosing easier, and a brilliant dessert list, 😋 We ate here both nights and no complaints what so ever about any of it. 👌 Good bar, nice choice of drinks with comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. The rooms are very clean and tidy, with all you need, and tea facilities. All the staff were brilliant, polite, helpful and attentive. Nothing was too much for them. Good sized car park at the rear. Would recommend the Victoria and look forward to returning there.
