"The room was fine. The pillows & bed were not that comfortable. I told the receptionist that each time we had a shower, a large pool of water was on the floor! Hotel facilities were superb. However, there were a few things that weren't working in the pool. We had a massage which was superb - thoroughly recommend. We eat in the restaurant both nights; food was OK. Thought the fish & chips was greasy and chips not very appetising. Saturday meal was a bit better. The breakfast staff were superb. However, they were rushed off their feet and it didn't help that the coffee machine broke down both days!! The coffee wasn't that great anyway! So, a great weekend but we won't be visiting again."

"Excellent value for money."

"Our little dog was made welcome with treats. Parking was easy and safe. "

"Very convenient access to town centre, limited parking at hotel but plenty in carpark over the road. Rooms was clean and well presented. Good choice at breakfast "

"Breakfast was quite good, nice pastries and yoghurts. Room was pretty simple. Bathroom could’ve been cleaned a bit better before arrival and the loo flush kept breaking so was a bit flimsy."

"Very friendly staff. Rooms are very clean. Breakfast needs a little bit of upgrading. Scrambled eggs are sitting to long and then becomes very dry. Should always be ready to remove if eggs are no longer fit to eat. Dinner was good. I think more needed to add to menu. "

"Breakfast was good staff welcoming "

"Wivenhoe House Hotel was nothing short of exceptional from start to finish. Set in beautiful parkland, the hotel perfectly blends historic charm with modern luxury, creating an atmosphere that feels both elegant and welcoming. From the moment I arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. Every member of staff went out of their way to make me feel looked after, without ever being intrusive. Dinner in the restaurant was a real highlight. The menu was beautifully curated, showcasing seasonal ingredients and creative flair. Each course was expertly presented and full of flavour—clearly the work of a talented kitchen. The ambience in the dining room added to the experience, striking just the right balance between relaxed and refined. Breakfast the following morning was equally impressive. There was a generous selection to choose from, with both continental options and perfectly cooked hot dishes. Everything was fresh, high quality, and served with the same attentive care we experienced the night before. The room itself was spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean, with lovely views of the surrounding grounds—making it very easy to unwind and enjoy the peaceful setting. "
