Colchester Castle and Museum absolutely brilliant especially for children. We went on a Sunday morning and found cheap parking near Castle Park but can imagine that it would be a nightmare to drive around Colchester on a weekday without entering bus lanes and one way systems!

Colchester is an excellent base for travelling the neighbouring places of interest. I stayed there for the history of the city and there is plenty to see. City centre in 21st century isn't great.

Alvento are very polite in their communication and when you call the help line and have properties in 27 locations in the UK ! The house itself was OK , but I was not impressed with the sparsity of equipment in the property, nor the service provided by the property host , I will only be leaving a 1 star review , and that is for the charming dressing table and stool in the master bedroom ,

We coincided with Oktoberfest weekend at the castle. A major annual event. Even ended up in the pub with everyone late in the evening, which was entertaining and good-natured. We walked around town earlier during the day and found great places to stop off and to eat… Recommend Colchester for a weekend visit

We only stayed overnight in Colchester and left round lunchtime, so didnt have much time to browse, but we went to a few places and walked round the park! We will come back again and visit the castle. The area around there looks beautiful, too!

For such an amazing building, we thought the general appearance on entering the hotel was shabby and unclean. The bedroom was basic and shabby, which gave a feeling of unease. The breakfast was overcooked and unpleasant. However the staff were extremely friendly . We understand the hotel was refurbished some years ago, perhaps it is time for more attention. Such a shame for one of the oldest buildings in Colchester .

The location was the real selling point and the rates were reasonable. There was parking behind the George Hotel at £9.50 for 24hrs which was a good rate. The place was clean and comfortable. If you're looking for a base camp to come back to and you want to be in Central Colchester it's great.

This hotel is a great location if you’re visiting Colchester and don’t want to be in the heart of the city. It’s quiet considering it’s by the main roads, comfortable and equipped for a good stay. Big comfortable bed!

Loverly hotel right in the heart of Colchester with free on-site parking (albeit with a narrow access). Plenty of choices with the continental breakfast. Earlier check-in than most places. Friendly, helpful staff.

It has to be the best hotel in Colchester. We got a free room upgrade on arrival. The room was beautiful with everything we needed. The town is only a shot walk away and lots of good pubs for us to visit.
