The Blackwater Suite, hotel in West Mersea

Offering quiet street views, The Blackwater Suite is an accommodation situated in West Mersea, 37 km from Freeport Braintree and 44 km from Hedingham Castle.

Location best we could find for our needs, although a little further afield than we would have wanted, However, the bonus was proximity to the sea front and village. We originally booked for one night, but requested a second for which we changed room, and the cleaning team were very helpful.

    - Very sweet landlady running the place; really makes you feel welcome; you can tell that she enjoys being a host - The room had everything I needed, and I really enjoyed staying here - Great location just a few minutes from the beach and ocean, and on a side street to the center, so still fairly quiet in the evening - Lovely breakfast - Great value for money

    I stayed here with my family of 5 adults for my aunts wedding. Mario was a great host. He allowed us to check in early as we had to get ready for a wedding. He sent me a video of how to use the key code which was very helpful on arrival. The place was clean and exactly as described. Fully equipped. The apartment is very cosy and in a great location right by the beach. Mario answered all our questions promptly. Wifi down the side of the bed in the bedroom & there is an airbed available if there are more than 4 guests.

    Beautiful guest house in a great location. Received a warm, friendly welcome from our host who was so helpful in offering recommendations for eating out and places to visit while we were there. Our room was on the top floor from which we could see the sea. Room and en-suite were well appointed and immaculate. Good choice of breakfast, which was very good too. Great place to stay, and we will definitely be back if in the area again. Highly recommend.
