Hotels in Acrise

Hotel choice directly in Acrise is very limited, as it remains a scattered rural hamlet rather than a village with its own facilities. Most visitors looking for a hotel base themselves in Folkestone, around six miles to the south, which has a wider range of options from seafront guesthouses to larger chain hotels, plus easy access to the town's Creative Quarter, harbour and beach. Canterbury, around 40 minutes away, is another popular alternative for those who want a cathedral city with a wider choice of hotels and restaurants, while smaller country inns can be found in the nearby villages of Elham and Lyminge. Wherever you stay, the appeal of a hotel near Acrise is the same: quick access to the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with its ancient woodland, rolling chalk downland and quiet lanes, alongside easy reach of the Channel coast at Folkestone and Dover, and historic Canterbury a short drive north. Booking ahead is worth doing during the summer months and around school holidays, when coastal Kent towns get busier with visitors heading for the beaches and the Channel crossings.
