"Miss advertising of the room which we were very unhappy about as this was for our wedding day and wedding night. It took looking at 3 rooms and none were the one we booked. Good breakfast with very pleasant staff looking after us. Window cleaner cleaning the windows at 7.30am. Tv turned itself on in the middle of the night. Room wasn’t cleaned in the 3 nights we were there. We did take the bin to be emptied and asked for more tea/coffee which they went and got us and very friendly. Would I stay again or recommend this hotel NO I wouldn’t "

"Very clean and comfortable hotel. Only a few steps away from the airport terminal. We arrived at 1am, check in was friendly and efficient. The 24 hr room service was appreciated, a delicious pizza and a glass of wine swiftly delivered to the room. Buffet breakfast was really good value with a great selection of foods to choose from."

"Breakfast was fabulous. Having the bus to and from the airport was very convenient, but felt four pounds per guest was an awful lot for such a short distance and Uber would have charged much less."

"This was a 1-night stay for work. I was in room 220 which was a long walk from reception. Car park was free, but at the front of the hotel, filled up quickly. The room however was huge as was the ensuite. TV and Wifi okay. Decor a bit dated. Staff were friendly and helpful."

" Nice and easy check-in BUT warning, our taxi dropped us off outside the door and then drove off. It now appears that no thank you they may be fined because they did not come into the hotel to input their registration before driving off. I do find this a bit bizarre. Other than that the accommodation was good, the drinks were slightly more than I would pay in London, but acceptable. The breakfast was excellent and there was a good choice of food. Checkout was simple and the airport was a 10 minute walk away. So overall score 9 out of 10. "

"Always sparkling with cheery helpful Staff. Andra is exceptional."

"Great service "

"we had a suite room and it was beautiful with amazing views, the only thing to let it down was the pillows they was so big and hard we didn't sleep, spa was nice we did the mud treatment and that was very fun, it is very dated and needs some new paint work in the spa but apart from that is was lovely.

"Quirky and incredibly well designed hotel! It can’t be easy remodeling a +500 year old hotel. Location was perfect! Downtown Colchester, walkable to shops and restaurants. Modern amenities, fabulous decor, great location and incredible customer service! I really enjoyed staying in the historic hotel."
