Top Leigh-on-Sea Hotel Reviews

King Charles Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful and at breakfast on the first day I asked for an English breakfast but without the Cumberland sausage. The server suggested an extra slice of bacon instead, which was very welcome.. Sadly, a different server on the second day did not make the same offer and I didn't ask. The displays of marine tropical fish are beautiful and I could have watched them all day"

The Inn on the Lake Hotel

8/10 Good

"Rooms are a bit tired but otherwise we always enjoy our stay"

Holiday Inn Southend by IHG

8/10 Good

"Receptionist very polite and helpful on arrival To our surprise, we were given Welcome packs for our dogs, which we thought was adorable. Room clean, everything worked except the television, but didn’t report/complain as we didn’t particularly want to watch anything. A fair choice of food for Breakfast,all cooked properly Service was good, staff polite. Overall happy with our stay at this particular Holiday Inn."

Bridgewood Manor

8/10 Good

"Breakfast excellent but the meat at theSunday carvery wasn't covered by staff all the time and consequently blue bottle flies were walking over the roast beef which put you off. When said about it to the staff member she just smiled and gave a little laugh. Not the most suitable answer. Otherwise the stay was very good."
