Top Alderford Water Mill Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel reception staff Alvin Torre was excellent and did a great job looking after us during our stay"

DeSalis Hotel London Stansted

8/10 Good

"I needed somewhere cheap and easy to stay near Stansted Airport and this hotel did the job. Takes about 5-10 minutes to drive to the airport from here. They appear to store a lot of cars in their car park so I suspect their shuttle service is quite popular. I didn’t use this as I had already booked Mid Stay. I stayed in room 8A, a single but had a double bed. Located just through the restaurant doors by the stairs it was perfect for sneaking out at 4am. The room was modern and clean and comfortable. The shower was amazing, really fancy with lots of options. Reception lady was friendly, but I saw no one else. Literally a quick stop off. WiFi was very unreliable. TV had a few channels to choose from. Mostly it’s somewhere to sleep. The M11 services have loads of electric car chargers (incl. Tesla ones) so no need to worry about your EV at this hotel."

Novotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient hotel, especially when picking up and dropping off airport car hire. Great, reliable shuttle service, lovely staff and comfortable accommodation."

The George of Colchester

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel with stunning interior decor in a very central location and handy car park (at extra cost). We had a twin room on the first floor (room 205) which, although was comfortable with excellent shower and comfy beds, the pigeon muck on the outside of the windows was not very nice! We enjoyed our 1 night stay (with a good breakfast) but would not recommend a room on that side of the building as the noise from the outdoor terrace area was substantial from check-in through to late night. Staff were very friendly and welcoming."

St Nicholas Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was fine, good size, clean, everything in working order. However, the room was extremely hot with no air conditioning and there was a lot of noise from outside. Staff were very helpful, allowed us to check in early but unable to change our room to reduce heat or noise as the hotel was full. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice."

Holiday Inn Express London Stansted Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect start to our holiday, made everything easy, would definitely stay again, thanks."

Best Western The Rose & Crown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was as per expected with the best westen Chain"

Holiday Inn Express Braintree by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Can’t knock out stay. Good price, late bar, bacon crispy! Plus Becky went out of her way to accommodate all our requests. Excellent care and service"

Holiday Inn Express Colchester by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, helpful staff and decent breakfast. Easy to find and pretty close to Colchester zoo"
