Find the Best Shimpling Bed and Breakfast

"We had a great bleisure stay at the hotel. Clean room, comfortable bed, excellent and clean swim/sauna/steam facilities and not crowded. Breakfasts and evening meal were superb. Will definitely stay again soon."

"A clean hotel and a pleasant stay for 2 nights. Parking is extremely limited but the West End Road car park is only a short walk away and both reasonable cost and easy to pay via the MiPermit app (which will give you a Vat receipt afterwards). The buffet style breakfast was good and the hotel was very clean and the staff helpful."

"Excellent rooms, staff, breakfast, facilities, parking and value ."

"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."

"Miss advertising the room.. given wrong room when booked in then given another room with balcony but couldn’t swing a cat in the room as it was so small. We booked this room as it was a 3 day stay for our wedding and honeymoon. In the end we got a bigger room like the picture but no balcony. We were told there are no rooms like the one in the picture. I am very disappointed "

"The stay was good, but one day I come to the hotel and they had taken all my belongings from my room down to the reception. They could not explain why they had done this, I find that very strange, I was not checking out that day. I find it strange that people can’t say sorry when they have done something wrong, a bit dissapointed about that. Rest of the stay was very good."

"The room we had needs updating and cleaning properly Room 2 The windows had black mould and the shower has lots of black mould - could be easily cleaned away Be nice if the pool was open earlier at the weekend- we didn’t get to use it "

"Friendly helpful staff "
