Colchester Hotels with Parking

Host reception was warm and pleasant.

The hotel is right next to the University of Essex, making it very convenient to get to the school. The rooms are spacious with balconies and great views. However, the bathroom facilities are a bit basic; the shower curtain is narrow, barely covering the entire shower area, so water splashes everywhere. Public transportation is inconvenient; it's a 10-minute walk to the bus stop.

The staff were lovely friendly and helpful. My room was comfortable and peaceful and I had everything I needed it was nice to have a few places next to the front to eat ..the manager was really nice my only bad point is that if you don't drive be prepared for the taxi drivers to completely rip you off I had to phone about 10 cab companies to eventually get a cab to the station 2 mins cost me £22 but that is not the hotels fault

Staff were great all very friendly Room was spacious wardrobe big enough for a 4 yr old to sleep in ( excuse my humour ) and very clean Evening meal portions great food very tasty & staff looked after granddaughter well with keeping her occupied . Breakfast was a little of a let down as under the warmer food was still cold and bacon very dry … cheese was dried up with the cold meats only I flavour yoghurt I wish I had ordered off the fresh cooked menu of eggs selection ( but I never left hungry ) Despite second paragraph I would defo return

Ideal place for a short stay everything is covered great accommodation quite setting and lovely pool and games room good for all ages.

My Mum lives locally in the town. Appreciate the on-site parking. Comfortable, clean rooms. Friendly staff.

Note from my engineer - This hotel was great, it offered large parking which was spacious enough for a large van and the rooms were extremely clean.

The staff were friendly   One of our rooms was far 2 small for a double   Plus mattress was stained quite badly room 3  bath was clean as were towels Other room was lovely and spacious    But very dirty   No cleaning   Plus the shampoo etc were empty( products obviously left by someone else) and shower jel been very used   Towels were clean  Bath was ciean   Tv worked well but very dirty had to wipe before viewing  hanging space wasn’t clean either for  clothes    Very disappointed overall

Nice student hostel. Convenient location for lectures in the campus. The kitchen has some kitchenware available.

Hotel was close to Colchester Station which was a bonus as my friend and I just needed to bed down for the night. Staff were friendly and welcoming but not always available. We had a curry next door as they recommended the food and it was good. Room was ok but noisy from the traffic in the morning outside the front of the hotel. Decor and furnishings somewhat dated but just about comfortable enough. Maintenance needs attention. Minor issues such as hairdryer not fixed properly to the wall and no option to switch shower head as the lever was missing. However phone didn't work when I called Reception several times on hearing the fire alarm sound. Turned out to be a false alarm but couldn't be too complacent. Tried the stairwell and was thankful that the exit and side door were accessible, unlike the main front door which had a set of keys dangling from it and was only unlocked when we left in search of breakfast. Overall mixed review.
