    indoor tennis courts
    spacious room
    good breakfast
    limited family activities

    We recently stayed here with our kids and our dog, and it was great to find three indoor tennis courts available. The kids had a blast playing tennis while we enjoyed some downtime. The room was spacious with a proper bathroom and a good breakfast set us up for the day.

    My kids wished there were more family activities available on-site.

    great access to parks and historical landmarks in canterbury

    During my stay, I loved how close I was to stunning Westgate Gardens and the iconic Canterbury Cathedral, making my city strolls incredibly enjoyable and convenient. the room was modern and clean, providing everything I needed for a short getaway, though it could use better climate control during warm weather.

    messy bathroom

    Friendly vibes, but not super comfy

    It felt a bit like being back in college. the room was hot and kinda messy, with someone's hair in the bathroom. The pillows were flat too. Breakfast was nice, though, and the staff were really friendly. Just hard to find and definitely wouldn’t want to stay here solo at night.

    helpful staff
    breakfast selection
    heat issue

    Keynes College in Canterbury provided a pleasant stay. The room featured a comfortable double bed with plenty of closet space. I appreciated the hot shower after a long day. The common kitchen facilities on each floor made it easy to prepare meals whenever I wanted. The staff were consistently friendly and eager to help. the breakfast left much to be desired. Limited choices were available, especially for the hot options. Sometimes, items ran out before I could get to them. Better variety in the breakfast menu would significantly enhance the experience. Despite the breakfast shortcomings, the location was convenient, with a bus stop nearby for quick access to Canterbury city center. Room temperature was warm. a fan would have improved comfort. Lots of positive aspects but definitely room for improvement.

    lack of climate control
    noisy environment

    The location offered easy access to Canterbury and the bus service was convenient. The room was modern and clean, and breakfast was good. the lack of climate control made the room very warm during my stay, and I wouldn't want to be there longer than necessary.

    delicious breakfast
    free parking

    my stay at keynes college was lovely! the english breakfast was very good, and it was great to have free parking. it’s an easy walk downhill to the city, making outings a breeze. the friendly staff added a nice touch to our mornings.

    if you don't like steep walks back, it can be a bit tiring.

    The best part was the hearty English breakfast — scrumptious and filling! The room was a bit cramped and hot, but it was clean and modern overall. 😊

    limited breakfast options

    The stay was quite satisfactory for a couple of nights. The room was comfortable and the beds provided good support for a restful night's sleep. Breakfast was decent, though limited in selection, and the staff were friendly and efficient. The location was convenient for visiting Canterbury Cathedral and other local attractions, making it a good base for our exploration.
