The location was excellent, being just a few minutes' walk from the High Street and local buses. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. We had 2 evening meals at the hotel restaurant ( The Green Room) and they were outstanding, particularly the locally caught fresh fish.

Colchester is a brilliant town to visit, you have the old and new part to walk round ranging from a good collection of shops and food outlets to browse and walking round the various churches, castle, monastery ruins and lovely parks. The town is within walking distance of both train stations, taxis are plenty also. Take a good pair of comfy walking attire for feet as you will be walking up and down gradients!! A great place to visit on the local bus is Manningtree where there is a antiques emporium to walk round with a great cafe in the high street for food. If visiting Colchester for the first time I recommend staying at least a minimum of 4 days as their is a lot to see of interest. Lots of charity shops too!! For families do visit Colchester Zoo which is a great day out, this can be reached by bus also if you do not drive.lynetteUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Colchester is a gem.
Colchester is a gem. Lovely architecture and sights, good cafes and pubs, shopping and eateries. It's not at all dog friendly, though, which is a big drawback if you ask me. Come on, Colchester, Britain loves its pets!MattUnited Kingdom

- From £105 per night6.7Scored 6.7PleasantRated pleasant· 2,026 reviewsThe hotel is being refurbished, but we were aware of this and it did not interfere with our experience. The room we stayed in was newly refurbished and was modern and great. We were visiting family in a nursing home nearby and this was a great deal of bed, dinner and breakfast included. We used the pool and sauna which is functional but in need of modernisation, but no complaints as there was no fee to use this, plenty of parking and just off the A12. We would stay again. The food was also good.MartinaUnited Kingdom

The staff were really welcoming from the minute we set foot through the door. Special mention to Julie who was a real gem; so engaging and genuine. Theres a restaurant on site, breakfast was exceptional. The bar is well stocked and not excessively priced. Rooms were spacious and the beds were super comfy. Had a great night sleep. Location - central colchester, high street is a short walk away.

- From £105 per night6.7Scored 6.7PleasantRated pleasant· 2,026 reviewsThe hotel was just outside Colchester off the A12. The hotel is being renovated, however we heard no construction noise during our stay. We were put in the new wing which has been beautifully renovated. We were first put into a double room and when we questioned it, the friendly receptionist changed us over to a twin. It had a huge TV and 2 comfortable 3 quarter size beds.
