Zaw Htut and Michael Wood, of Slatters Development, added: “It’s fantastic to see the new Hampton by Hilton Canterbury open and ready to welcome guests.

“A lot of work has gone into developing the property in a sensitive way that really showcases the historical significance of the site. We are incredibly proud to have worked with Hilton and Interstate Hotels & Resorts to create such a unique accommodation offering in the heart of Canterbury.”
