I don't know what people expect. But I disagree with a lot of reviews here and I was hesitant to book here.
Good I did!
Almost everything. Especially the staff. The manager was lovely, always keen to help and give Information when needed. Nice size room and a lot of atmosphere. Breakfast was very tasty and plenty, good coffee too. And the location was good. Literally in the centre of the city.

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.

Location just off the A12. Ease of free parking. Speedy check-in. Bar prices reasonable. Lovely bar staff. High-quality dinner included in the price. Clean leisure facilities.
Family room (refurbished): superb!
Lots of little extras.
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. My son and I stayed for one night and had dinner and breakfast in the hotel. The food was very good. We didn't use any other facilities but the room was very clean and comfortable.
Very friendly, efficient, nice room, good food (both dinner and breakfast), happy to store a bottle in their fridge for us, heating did go on in the morning which started cool (an unreliable summer). Happy to take us for one night on a summer weekend, when others would not.
Good location with an EV charger. Quiet and comfortable. The dinner was decent but breakfast options were limited. Cooked breakfast only really and staff were struggling to keep up with demand.
We had driven from North Devon to Colchester, a long journey in the car. Upon arrival we checked in and had sadly missed out on dinner at the hotel because we arrived after the closing time for the restaurant. Being tired and travel weary, it was a total delight to be informed that the hotel had chosen to upgrade our room to a suite. I have never been made to feel so welcome before and the room was perfect.
Food was good. Had dinner and breakfast. Staff knowledgeable and experienced. Decor and fixtures and fittings of a good standard .
Opposite entrance to long stay car park .
Well positioned in city centre.
Not over priced.
