"This is a great hotel for a short stay in Colchester. A very good breakfast, large rooms, and the location is great if you want to explore Colchester (right by the castle and park). "
"One of the best Holiday Inns I’ve stopped in , staff on another level awesome, no pay for parking, great rooms & restaurants plus spa ✔️ definitely will be back as my brother lives nearby in Markstey "
"We loved it here, had a a good couple of nights with friends. Beautiful apartment, amazing mattresses and pillows, very quiet environment. The pool wasn’t open and some work was happening but you can tell it’s going to look amazing once they put it all together and summer prep work is expected at this time of year. Kara was fab and we met a super helpful housekeeper who is doing a degree who was a literal walking tourist information centre. Great atmosphere all round ."

"Fantastic proce for sunh a good quality hotel. We stayed one night because we were going to a concert in Colchester. We jumped on the train at Marks Tey, maybe 10 mins walk, and were there super quick. Very convenient. The room was really nicely furnished and clean, with some nice little touches you dont get with Premier Inn. Breakast was buffet, and perfectly fine with hot and cold choices. Parking was £8/day. Really pleased with our choice."
"The restaurant was very accommodating especially to my wife who is coeliac. There was only one main on the included dinner menu that was gluten free so they let her choose from the wider menu.
Good separation and labelling of gluten free items at breakfast too. "
"When I first walked in, I loved it as it was a boat and I’ve never stayed on a house boat before.
Communication when I booked was excellent and we checked in early.
Upstairs was grey but downstairs (beds) was dark and smelt damp. There was no main TV control, used the TV buttons but couldn’t adjust the sound. No full length mirror nor a mirror in the bathroom so I did my make up looking at the toaster. The inside windows and tables were dirty, blind was broken but the main thing was the “security”… Anyone can walk up to the boat and stare through the windows at the front through the (eye level) windows as they aren’t covered. My partner had to leave early and it really worried me as I couldn’t even cover them with anything as there wasn’t even hooks etc. the main bedroom downstairs smelt, the light fell on me so we took the duvets up the very narrow stairs and slept on the sofas. Lovely area, unique place to stay.

"Very well appointed and located - pretty wrap around garden with sun at different times of day- close to jetty where grandsons loved crabbing and yummy unpretentious seafood restaurants.Only reservation for some could be 2 flights of steep stairs to 2 of 3 bedrooms with only bathroom and loo downstairs— but cottage dates from 1575 so don’t expect en-suites! - what you do get is character and comfort.
