This place is friendly and welcoming. I stayed for 2 nights in a single which was huge with 3 single beds. Nice bathroom with 2 doors between the bedroom and it which might be useful for 3 occupants. i would reccommend it.

Stayed for one night. Very peaceful and conveniently located but the bedroom I stayed in was very dated and the bathroom and tea making facilities were poor. Staff helpful and friendly but the whole package just didn't feel value for money.

I’ve stayed in many British B&Bs, and they’re always an important part of the overall travel adventure. My latest trip to England included a visit to the cathedral town of Canterbury in the county of Kent. Clare Ellen Guest House was where we stayed for three full days, and we couldn’t have asked for better digs. Located just off of... More

This B&B is tucked away in a less traveled corner of Canterbury, but at only a 10 minutes walk from the City, it is a good deal. The hosts are super friendly, the place is nice and spotless, very quiet and well furnished. Beds were good and the bunk bed in room 1 was a great experience for kids. Breakfast... More

He showed us our room even though we arrived early and then proceeded to give us some info on the local area which was very helpful. We were blessed with brilliant weather took a... More

We spent four nights in Ahmad's in March 2012 our room was nicely furnished the small fridge was very useful plentiful supplies of tea/coffee etc. Well,what can we say about breakfast,full English everyday,all absolutely delicious! Ahmad was very welcoming and due to his local knowledge was full of ideas of where to visit. Mike & Kate.

We stayed with another couple for one night. The rooms were quite old but that was really the only issue. Everything was tidy and clean, plus the small fridge is always appreciated. The next morning I tried the English breakfast and my wife had cereals with fruits and yoghurt. We both loved the dining room and the food.

Only 1 night stay with wife and son and daughter-in-law, we usually stay in the Millers Arms, but they were booked full months ago. The Clare Ellen B&B is a nice 10 mins walk to the center of Canterbury. The rooms are a decent size ,we had the twin room on the top floor, the furniture is quite old but... More
