The weather was very hot so my room on the 2nd floor was a but stuffy. Given the type of accommodation - traditional pub rather than modern hotel it was acceptable.

Great location by the scenic Great Stour, with views of the bridge and a historic mill. Just minutes from key attractions. The double room was clean, quiet, and comfortable, with a spacious bathroom. Discounted parking available through the hotel. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff. The only minor issue was that the room got a bit too warm during the heatwave, but I’d gladly return during cooler weather.

A friendly place

The Millers Arms is well located in Cantebury. The rooms are small and need a bit of work, but the staff was very friendly. We like to play cards in the evening and they were very happy to have us stay at our table until they closed the restaurant. Very much appreciated. It is well located for the Cathedral and other sites in the area.

We had a very friendly welcome from Paul at the bar who booked us in and gave us a discounted rate at the carpark opposite. All the bar staff were friendly and helpful. The room we had didnt have aircon, and the small fan provided was extremely noisy, maybe a point for management to consider. We were within easy walking distance of restaurants and the Marlowe Theatre. Breakfast next day was very good, with enough choice for all diets. Would definitely recommended and would stay again.

Worn out

Worn out! The hotel was in terrible shape. Our toilet never properly worked. We alerted the staff several times Our door to the hall could barely open. I really expect a refund.

The mill is gone but the mill race across the street means you can fall asleep to falling water every night. A very pleasant place to stay.

Great location and easy parking (discounted rate provided at hotel - simply park up and pay at Reception). Our room was spacious and comfortable with double aspect windows looking out towards the river. Could do with a little TLC (extractor fan not working in the bathroom and toilet flush not great!) but nothing that affected our stay. Although quite noisy during the day, there was no noise disturbance on our return in the evening (around 9pm) onwards. All staff friendly and efficient and breakfast was delicious. We would definitely return!
