Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester

Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were polite, friendly and welcoming throughout my stay, whether at reception, in the breakfast area or at the bar. I’ve stayed here before and have always found the rooms to be clean, comfortable and well maintained. This time, I booked a twin room as that was the only option available to me. I was expecting two standard single beds, but they were actually larger than expected and probably the perfect size for one person. Parking is £8 per day, which I think is very reasonable considering the convenience of being able to park at the hotel. Overall, another really comfortable stay and I would happily stay here again."

8/10 Good
"Generally our experience was good. Getting there was fairly easy. Check in went smooth, the view from room over the lake was beautifull.we slept well.Food was good, we had breakfast only.Waiting time for an English breakfast seemed bit long and portion size could be bit bigger.Staff was kind and friendly.We stayed there for 1 night only. My only complain is first impression when we entered our room there were big stains on a carpet, which made us uncomfortable and want to leave immediately.On the drain in shower there was still bit of hairs.Carpets in a hallway are worn off as well. Taken away cleanliness issue it is a good value for the money and a lovely set up over the lake."

"Hotel and room were clean, and staff were good, but there was no air conditioning anywhere, in the rooms or the restaurant. They just relied on floor fans. Really not good with the summer we've had. Plenty of parking spaces, but no EV charge points."
