Top Steeple Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Southend by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room could have been cleaner, staff were excellent, breakfast was good."

Holiday Inn Express Braintree by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Helpful friendly staff. Very clean and well maintained Tremendous breakfast Only criticism an electric socket close to the bed would be useful"

Wivenhoe House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast excellent.."

Best Western The Rose & Crown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I booked a single room and was so pleasantly surprised. The decor was nice, room was very clean and the bed was so comfy. I had the best night sleep. I would highly recommend"

The Essex Golf and Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"This was our 6th stay at The Essex and we never have any complaints. The rooms are good size and have been recently refurbished. The location is nice and quiet, with a nice walk round the local airfield"

Seven Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely location, beautiful views. The staff were really lind and helpful. Great bed in the room and good air con. Bathrooms let the room down slightly, small and some maintenance issues I.e. towel rail almost coming off the wall and unstable shampoo dispenser. Room service was a greay luxury and nice to have free parking, although could do with better signage, we struggled to find initially- the carpark entrance is literally next to the front entrance of the hotel, you can't see it until you are right in front of it."

Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester

10/10 Excellent

"Second time staying here. Great place, friendly staff, room was really nice. Still the only downside is having to pay for parking, should be free for those staying at the hotel in my opinion."

The George of Colchester

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful hotel and lovely staff. You are made to feel valued and welcome from everyone. The housekeeping staff are non intrusive, efficient and respectful of your privacy. The pub stuff are phenomenal, excellent and quick service with perfectly made cocktails. The breakfast/dining room is beautiful. The food is fresh, served quickly and the host and serving staff are kind and friendly. I cannot say enough good things about the ladies at reception. They were so helpful with my package deliveries trying to get my son set up at uni. They laughed along with me at the ridiculous packaging I would receive and were so gracious, thoughtful and helpful. The owners of this hotel and their guests are incredibly lucky to have such amazing staff to look after them. With more trips to Colchester coming, this will be my choice every time. I look forward to their welcoming smiles and a perfectly made espresso martini! Thank you so much for turning a difficult and stressful trip into a fantastic experience. Truly one of a kind!"
