Best Western Abbots Barton Hotel is a grand Victorian Gothic 3-star hotel set in tranquil surroundings on 2 acres of landscaped gardens.  The hotel holds its charm whilst offering all the mod cons expected of a contemporary hotel.  With free on-site parking and at just 10 minutes' walk from Canterbury City Centre or a 20 minute drive from Dover Ferry Terminal, it's the ideal base whether you're visiting for a break or just passing through. Our rooms range from small classic doubles, ideal for solo travellers, to contemporary deluxe suites perfect for longer stays or to celebrate a special occasion.

During your stay, we invite you to indulge in the delightful offerings of our newly refurbished Westfield Bar. Immerse yourself in its relaxing and modern ambiance while enjoying a diverse selection of food and drinks. From light bites to main meals, stone-baked pizzas and desserts, there's something to tantalize every palate. Please note that our restaurant is currently closed as it’s undergoing refurbishment to enhance your future dining experiences.

Breakfast is served in our Fountain Room and a continental buffet and a hot breakfast menu is available. 

We extend our warmest welcome and trust your stay with us will be memorable.
