St Nicholas Hotel
4.1/551 Reviews
Absolutely wonderful hotel all round. The room and balcony exceeded my expectations, and really pleased me, and my standards are very high and I submitted some specific requests. Top floor, room 904, advised now this one and 910 very popular. Both the room and balcony a really nice size too. Lovely facilities. Nice view of Colchester castle etc. Nice communal areas. The George hotel communal areas are wonderful too and lovely breakfast, great choice, beautifully cooked, and I requested to sit elsewhere as so many beautiful options, and for me generally and as need my own space, and peace as much as possible, and am still very aware re.COVID-19, I eventually arranged to sit in the lovely courtyard. Too busy and noisy for me in the main restaurant. Exemplary staff. I also really liked the fact that you could switch the bathroom ventilator off, otherwise it comes on when you put the light on. Of course one should always switch it on when using the shower and keep it on briefly afterwards. My first Surya experience. Sublime.
Dragonfly Hotel Colchester
3.8/547 Reviews
Sofia (‘manager’ if you could call her that !) is nothing but a bully, leaving a poor young PREGNANT girl by herself to show me pictures of restaurants she has been to recently and photos of her puppy ! The young girl (Shannan was her name I believe) was swept off her feet, running around doing a ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING and doing all she could to make my stay wonderful but unfortunately the stay was ruined by Sofia! when Shannan asked for help from Sofia (so called MANAGER!!!) she basically laughed and carried on doing nothing !, Sofia offered no help what so-ever and she should have a serious talking to ! I also heard her talking about Staff members personal lives and antics to other staff members which is not called for what so ever and is not what Customers and guests should be hearing as it is their personal life and she SHOULD NOT be disclosing any of that to anybody at all ! I stayed in February and she was the same, I travel for work often and I often stay at the dragonfly but even since the So called “Manager” Sofia started the place had gone down hill ! Shanna is an absolute star and should be praised to high heaven ! Thank you so much Shannan for going above and beyond for me and many many others !
Travelodge Colchester Feering
4.5/541 Reviews
Nineteen of us stayed at the Travelodge in Feering to attend a Wedding Anniversary. The site is off an A road almost like a services stop. There is a Burger King and Gregg's directly opposite and a Petrol Station shop a few meters away. The hotel is dated and there was slight musky smell in the corridor. However, the staff here and especially Cara are phenomenal. We had trouble trying to arrange cabs, but she rang around until she managed to find several cabs for us. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a budget friendly hotel. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms were ok. There is also free parking on site. There is no provision for EV charging.
The Blue Anchor
4.1/527 Reviews
Have visited the blue anchor a couple of times now and have not stopped raving about it to friends and family etc. who have also visited from my amazing reviews. Lovely food, great staff, so we thought. I called on 22 November 2023, and can see from my call log that I have a 5 minute phone call with them. I double checked I could use my Tastecard whilst booking my next visit on 5 December 2023, I triple checked as there was 6 of us coming and money is tight at the moment. The young man on the phone reassured me that I will be able to use my tastecard, he even took my tastecard number down as I read it out. Fast forward to 5 December 2023, we have a lovely meal, all have a starter main and dessert as we had been promised the 2 for 1 deal with the tastecard. Go to pay, and they tell me that the tastecard is not applicable. I cannot tell you how upset I was. It was embarrassing. I could not afford to pay for this whole meal when I had been promised the deal. The manager was rude, did not apologise for any miscommunication etc. when it was his staff telling me that we would get the deal. He explained that it said on the tastecard app “Not applicable in December” but when ringing up and TRIPLE checking with YOUR staff member, they reassured me it would. They then were assuming that I was lying about giving my tastecard number? The most awful customer service I think I have come across. To think I was recommending the pub to so many people, I am truly gutted and so upset that what was meant to be a lovely family meal turned into nothing but stress due to the cost of it. Will now be telling those friends and family not to return. Appalled by the customer service at this place.
Holiday Inn Express Colchester
3.9/524 Reviews
Pleasantly surprised. Room extremely clean. Bathroom was immaculate. Nice fluffy white towels. Plenty of hot water. Beds are okay. Not firm but that didn’t really bother as only staying one night. Breakfast was satisfactory. The scrambled eggs very yummy. Fresh fruit. Plenty to choose from. Friendly staff. We would return without hesitation.
Star Anglia Hotel
3.3/518 Reviews
The hotel is small, simple, there is a bus stop at the door, and it is very close to the town center. It is very convenient to walk to the town. The English breakfast is very good (the chef is an older woman, one looks at the restaurant, likes her). While eating and looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I feel quiet.
