Just metres from Canterbury’s medieval West Gate, this charming building dates back to 1403. A former coaching inn, it offers free Wi-Fi and free parking, 2 minutes’ walk from the city centre. The Falstaff still retains many original features, including oak beams and an open log fire. Each room has a TV for guests to use, and facilities for making tea and coffee. Guests can enjoy a drink in the traditional bar, which opens out onto an outdoor terrace. A full English breakfast is served in the morning, and there are restaurants within a few minutes’ walk. Canterbury West Rail Station is a 3-minute walk from the building. The city’s spectacular Norman cathedral can be reached in less than 10 minutes on foot.
