Overview

Canterbury West Railway Station can be reached in less than 10 minutes on foot and the quaint harbour town of Whitstable is 15 minutes away by car.

Each luxurious room is independently planned and has rich sheet material, modern style furniture and fancy en-suite offices. Choose over 3 doubles, 2 twin rooms, and an open 2-room family suite which can rest up to 5 in addition to an infant. All rooms highlight Freeview TV, tea and espresso making offices and a hairdryer. In addition, an additional bed can be reserved for both the family and twin rooms as a redesign.

Families with children of any age welcome. Sorry - no pets allowed.

Adjacent to the Towers is Westgate Gardens.The eleven acres of public gardens provide an ideal setting for a gentle stroll along the banks of the River Stour, while the less energetic can take a historic river trip.
