Canterbury Inn

What guests think

At Canterbury Inn, travellers describe a charming, very clean, small inn with warm, helpful staff, a peaceful garden, and a quiet, walkable location near Old Town, offering a relaxed, homey atmosphere.

Rooms are comfortable and often spacious, though decor feels dated to some, noise can travel in this older house, several mention limited temperature control or warm rooms, and multiple reviews note the absence of in-room refrigerators. Breakfast is generally appreciated for variety and occasional dietary options, but several guests wished for hot items and mention a later start time around 8:30 a.m. Expect a friendly, spotless base with classic charm and a calm setting.

Spent a wonderfully relaxing couple of days at the Canterbury Inn. The hotel is very comfortable (we were in the very large bedroom #9) and the gardens are delightful. Be sure to check them out and spend some time there in the sun (if possible). The breakfast was excellent and the staff extremely friendly. We walked into town every day and discovered more and more each time. Don't miss a trip to the Museum (very interesting and engaging) and we also walked out to Peller Estates & Winery (about 30 minutes) for lunch on the last day - highly recomended!

Very cute little inn, a bit far out from the city centre, but still walkable. Maybe 10/15 mins to Queen street. The room was very nice and comfortable with a spacious bathroom. Only thing to keep in mind: there are no fridges in the rooms so if you want to buy groceries or have leftover food from a restaurant you can only put it in a big shared fridge in the back. Breakfast was good, just wish there were a bit more protein options (scrambled eggs, bacon, etc.). Overall though, very pleasant stay with polite staff and comforting interiors.

Breakfast hot the spot before our drive home. Wish we stayed longer to enjoy the property more!

Was expecting a full breakfast for the price but it was a standard continental breakfast with hard boiled egg, bread options, cereal, juice, and coffee.
