Holiday Inn Express Colchester by IHG

4/10 Poor

"I chose this Holiday Inn Express for three very specific reasons, especially since we were travelling to Colchester on a very hot 32°C day and unfortunately, the hotel failed us on all three. 1) Air Conditioning One of the main reasons we booked this hotel was because it advertised air‑conditioned rooms. When we arrived, the room was set to 23.5°C and we were unable to adjust it. We went to reception and were told the entire hotel was locked to that temperature. Their solution was to hand us a small, ineffective fan. I’m travelling with a toddler and I’m heavily pregnant a cool room wasn’t a luxury, it was a necessity. Instead, the room was uncomfortably hot and made the stay miserable. 2) EV Charging Point We also chose this hotel because it listed an on‑site EV charger. After driving nearly 200 miles, we urgently needed to charge the car. When we arrived, the charger was out of order. No warning, no alternative, nothing. Another major disappointment. 3) Restaurant & Kids Eat Free Holiday Inn hotels are known for having decent restaurants and the “kids eat free” offer. When we arrived at 5pm with a hungry toddler, we discovered: The restaurant doesn’t serve food until 6–9pm. The “kids eat free” offer does not apply to Holiday Inn Express locations — something only found in the fine print. Again, another expectation completely unmet. Positives: The room was clean and breakfast was good. But when you’re overheated and uncomfortable, it overshadows everything"

Stoke by Nayland Hotel, Golf and Spa

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed a solo spa day & stayed over night. The spa day was excellent, very well organised, reserved table on arrival and reserved lounger for the whole day, jacuzzi, steam room & sauna were amazing. Back and neck and shoulder massage was enjoyable and the afternoon tea was really nice. Very friendly staff, I ordered room service; beef burger and fries which was great. My room was nice, the bed was okay, but overall it was a nice overnight stay. I felt safe. The breakfast which was help yourself was lovely, I sat by the window and enjoyed the amazing views of the golf course. I will come again for the spa day"

The Essex Golf and Country Club

8/10 Good

"No signs for the exit in the ladies pool changing room, and nowhere to leave your room key, which activates your locker, if you can work out how to do it. Nice pool and jacuzzi though, rooms could do with a deep clean, but daily basics are done and it's comfortable. Staff are very helpful and happy to help with queries, rooms spacious and mine had a lovely view, plenty of (free) parking."

The Mill Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Mill is a gem of a hotel with a picturesque location and walking distance from the main town facilities. The bedrooms are well-equipped and private parking is free for guests. Even though the hotel is very well appointed, the staff are friendly but not stuffy and it has a small hotel feel. The bar and dining room is spacious with the feature water wheel and views across the water meadows. The food is slightly more expensive than average pub grub, but it is tasty with good size portions. Looking forward to our next stay."
