Restaurant for both dinner and breakfast was great. Very nice walk along the water from the Inn. Room was fairly large and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Lovely pub in a quiet village. Road was being repaired overnight but the hotel informed us in advance we didn't hear it. Perfect location for the Harwich ferry ( 16min drive ) and much cheaper than accommodation closer to the port.
Mistley is small but has a great history. It is easy to walk into Manningtree but driving there is also easy, taking only a few minutes. There are great views across the estuary and plenty of bird life for those interested in birdwatching. There is a railway station and there are also buses. Many interesting places to visit and lots of walking in the surrounding area.
The Mistley Thorn has a very good restaurant and provides food and refreshment all day and into the evening. A very comfortable place to stay.

A quaint old world hotel with very friendly and helpful staff.
Very creaky floors. Comfortable bed and a warm spacious room.
. The clothes rail in the wardrobe of my room was too high for me to hang my clothes up. I had to lay them across the armchair. I would have preferred a slide rail in the shower as I do not like the overhead downpour

Very busy quaint hotel set beside a river, staff were always friendly and happy to help, it’s a great little hotel to stay for a few days sightseeing. Maybe rooms are on the small side but otherwise a very pleasant stay.

The hotel itself is exceptional.
The hotel itself is exceptional. And it's a ten minute stroll along the estuary to Manningtree. I had lunch at Lucca which seems to be also owned by Mistley Thorn. Again a high standard of food, wine and attentive service. I also visited the North House Gallery in Manningtree which officially opens only on Saturdays but I was able to arrange an appointment on Friday by texting the owner. Well worth a visit. Excellent exhibition called "Shore' with six different artists.
Mistley on the main road is pretty unsightly right now, with high fencing erected on the road edge by the estuary.
