Nice comfortable hotel an easy walking distance from everything in Colchester. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was good quality. I liked the fact that breakfast is 'a la carte', as that reduces wastage. Cleanliness is good and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

This is not a place for people who need larger rooms. The hallways are narrow, too. The staff were quite friendly and very helpful. To reach it from the main train station, hire a cab unless you live in an area with steep hills.
