Who we are:
The Falstaff Hotel has been a centre of hospitality in Canterbury for over 600 years. A traditional 15th-century coaching inn, the hotel is steeped in history. Over the years, it has been extended through conversions of an adjacent wood mill and a former pub, The Tap.
Located just a few steps away from the Westgate Towers, the hotel is within easy walking distance of Canterbury city centre and all it has to offer, including the world-famous Norman Cathedral (a designated World Heritage Site), castle, museums, shops, and a choice of over 200 restaurants.
This historic hotel includes a beamed lounge where guests can relax after a busy day of sightseeing. The bar opens out onto a pretty outdoor terrace, perfect for enjoying a drink during the summer months. Why not try one of our cocktails before dinner at our beautiful bar?
The Falstaff in Canterbury is a family-owned local business with strong links to the community. We are committed to sustainability and to buying local. Our guest charitable scheme—matched pound-for-pound by the hotel—raises thousands each year for good causes.
