Number 8 - A centrally located apartment-style hotel with kitchenettes and proximity to Canterbury landmarks

Number 8 offers apartment-style accommodations with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs with streaming services, and private bathrooms featuring walk-in showers. Selected rooms include kitchenettes with microwaves and refrigerators, while suites provide separate living areas, washing machines, and city views. The hotel is 400 metres from Canterbury East Train Station and less than 1 km from Canterbury Christ Church University. Nearby landmarks include Canterbury Cathedral (0.5 km), West Gate Towers (0.5 km), and Greyfriars Chapel (0.5 km). Free WiFi is available throughout the property, and luggage storage is provided for guests. A continental breakfast is available each morning at Number 8.

Pros

Centrally located within walking distance of Canterbury Cathedral and other historic landmarks.

Apartment-style rooms with kitchenettes, washing machines, and city views.

Proximity to Canterbury East Train Station for easy transportation access.

Cons

No on-site restaurant or dining options beyond breakfast.

Nearest airports (London Southend and London City) are over 40 km away.

“Number 8 strikes me as a thoughtfully designed conversion, judging by the consistent praise for its high-quality finish and comfortable amenities. Its central Canterbury location is a clear advantage, but the attention to detail-from the well-equipped kitchenette to the provided coffee and tea-suggests a commitment to guest experience that goes beyond just the basics. I especially note the positive comments about the beds; a restful night seems highly likely.”
