Hotels near River Lee Country Park

"Had a choice between this motel, which was a little out of the way, or a motorway chain. This did take extra time from the M11, but was it ever worth it. Roydon could be straight out of Thomas the Tank Engine, the railway is right there (but not too noisy), you can walk to the little station, a canal on your doorstep, two very decent pubs, a coffee bar for sandwich or coffee in the marina. Staff were friendly, unit was clean and looked purpose built and not that old, room and bathroom very large by UK standard. It did take a bit to get the room warmed up in late Dec, but maybe didn't understand the heating. Roydon is a very little station - lots of trains through, but not many stop. To go to London you want to go backwards one stop up to Harlow, about five minutes by train, then lots of fast choice every few minutes from there to Stansted, London, and Cambridge. Just note trains stopping at Roydon end early and are lots frequent - you can drive to Harlow station easily but all the usual station problems of crowding and limited parking, so take the little train there if you can. Overall really good, a nice change from places with no soul. And where else could you sit beside a canal in a modern room with your car steps away, all in a quiet village with easy parking, and still hop a train into London in 30 minutes? And a shoutout to the New Inn pub on the high street - what a perfect small pub with fantastic staff and locals that love life. The White Hart may be good too."

"Clean room and very friendly & helpful staff"

"Hotel was lovely, food was amazing will definitely be back! "

"All the staff we interacted with were brilliant. Front desk, bar and restaurant, and the spa. Could not have been friendlier, or more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. But Zara on front desk was exceptional. She made us so welcome, and on discovering details about our reservation were not on their record, organised a card and gifts to make our celebration that much more special. The grounds and spa are great. Our room was excellent. "
