Canterbury's budget accommodation scene is primarily anchored by a well-regarded hostel that provides both affordability and opportunities for meeting fellow travellers.
1. YHA Canterbury
Type: Hostel
Set within a charming Victorian villa, YHA Canterbury offers a comfortable and friendly base for exploring the city. Guests can easily connect with others in the inviting lounge areas, relax in the garden, or grab a drink at the on-site bar. The hostel provides a clean and organised environment with essential facilities, and its central location makes it convenient for accessing Canterbury's historic sights and vibrant atmosphere on foot or via nearby bus routes.
At TFA Travel we believe in travel for all. Our mission is to enable people to explore the world as easily as possible without having to pay a travel agent a huge commission.
Our typical audience are those that want to see something new and get involved with authentic experiences of a country. Whether you are a backpacker, solo traveller, solo female traveller, straight or LGBTQ+ couple, family, you will find local and authentic experiences here.
