- Check in from 3pm.

Off Campus Accommodation
If you travel with your family including kids, the on-campus accommodation may not be the most suitable for you. In this case, we recommend that you use some guest houses or hotels closer to the city centre and at a convenient location (e.g., walking distance from the Univeresity in less than 30 mins and/or served by a direct bus to the University), such as the following ones (the ordering does not imply preference):
- House of Agnes
- ABode Canterbury
- Pilgrims Hotel
- Hampton by Hilton Canterbury
- Canterbury Cathedral Lodge Hotel
- Cathedral Gate Hotel
- Falstaff Hotel
- Yorke Lodge Bed and Breakfast
- Acacia Lodge
- Retro Bed & Breakfast
- Canterbury Lodge
- Travelodge Canterbury Chaucer Central (more hotel choices from Travelodge)
- Premier Inn Canterbury City Centre
From the above guest houses and hotels to the University campus, you can take buses or walk. Google Maps can usually show you different options with great accuacy, so we recommend you simply follow instructions given by Google Maps. If you take the bus, you may want to purchase a weekly ticket to save costs. The ticket can be purchased directly using a mobile app (Stagecoach) or from the bus driver.
