Property is exactly as pictured and very clean and cozy. Absolutely love the hotel-quality bedding and towels, made the stay feel so luxurious and great value for money. Although located at the port where there might not be as many activities, it is reasonably close to many attractions like Clacton Pier and Essex. Everyone in my family kept saying they would miss the place once we left and honestly we do! The games available also made the nights we spent more fun for us! Would love to stay again! Definitely highly recommend it!

The room was very spacious and clean. Well equipped with good flatscreen TV, tea, coffee etc. great power shower. Bed was so comfortable. The Indian restaurant attached to the Hotel was really good. Breakfast is a lakeside location about a 5 minute walk from main Hotel. Prices at Hotel and Restaurant great for location. Considering just 10 minutes by train you are inside M25 the waterside location was so quiet and serine. We shall definitely stay again, and would consider it a great base to explore Herts, Essex and London.

The view over Halfpenny Pier towards the Shotley peninsula was superb, there was always activity on the rivers Stour and Orwell. The hotel is superbly placed for using the Pier to board a vessel due to journey up either of the rivers or along the Essex and Suffolk coastlines. Within Harwich there are a number of historic buildings and sites to be enjoyed. The menu in the restaurant was interesting, our selected meals were always beautifully cooked and presented.

I found the staff at the hotel to be really friendly and efficient. I'd recommend this hotel purely for this reason. Location was acceptable, plenty of food outlets close by. Rooms were acceptable given price paid. There was an issue with my booking - I'd booked 2 rooms, but only one was reserved on arrival. This was sorted out quickly with no fuss when I arrived. If I have another wedding to go to in Essex, I'll book here again. Thanks

Lovely hotel in the most charming location in the village of Thaxted , Essex . The hotel has a cosy atmosphere and the staff are friendly and welcoming. My room was comfortable and well decorated , just the right size for my needs as I had a early flight the following morning . By the way that's another bonus it's only 20 mins away from the airport.

Beautiful village, good food, and especially friendly staff. Loved the cross between pub and hotel! Oh and the non regulation Tudor floors and walls, most relaxing stay for some time. Breakfast was excellent , and again the staff couldn't be more accommodating. If you wish to visit Essex,Suffolk or anywhere near, give it a go 😊😊

Absolutely amazing. We have stayed in every hotel or B'n'B in Essex over the last 7 months and this was the best one there is. Stunning property with some amazing features. Excellent coffee machine, sound system, all sorts of TV apps, And the best bit? A soft archery set! We had the best night away ever. Thank you so so much.

Booked a room at the very last minute, but was able to check in after 11pm and the receptionist was very welcoming. The room was lovely, as always, and toasty warm. This is one of my favourite hotels in Essex - clean, cosy, welcoming, great atmosphere in the pub/restaurant too.

This was a charming period coaching inn set in a pretty part of north Essex, close to the Suffolk border. Our evening meal and cooked breakfast were very good. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Plenty of parking and nicely decorated room with wet room and shower.

As a woman travelling alone I love the Essex as the staff are so friendly and I feel very safe at the hotel. I have Coeliac Disease and the catering staff always go the extra mile to ensure I can eat without worry of gluten contamination.

Wonderful stay… The hotel located nearby Essex University, and it’s not too far from Colchester city center “ 10 to 14 minutes by car”. If you wish to have a wonderful time in the English country side, then you are at the right hotel.

Fabulous little hotel tucked away in a quiet part of Essex. A real gem of a find. The Cherry Pub next door serving great food with very friendly helpful staff. Really clean accommodation easy to collect the key from the pub next door.

ideal location, just outside Braintree in Essex. Perfect for a one to tonight stuff over all the facilities you require in the apartment would recommend this to anyone as is a quiet little sound, very relaxing.

The location was excellent and easy to find. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and my room was above expectations. This hotel will be my first choice when I next come to Essex to stay.

Comfortable rooms and very efficient and friendly staff. Feels homely unlike many chain hotels. I plan to stay there regularly when work takes me to Essex

The hotel has good leisure facilities with long hours of access. The hotel is well situated for access to many destinations around Essex e.g. Lakeside.
