My favourite local hotel , best place to stay and the staff are exceptional in what they do and how they treat me . Always friendly, great communication, knowledgeable, welcoming. Delicious food served especially the steak 🥩 with 🍟 frites and their local gin ,Essex based . I just want to acknowledge Yulia, Cody, Andra and Andreea. Nothing is too difficult for the staff , they go out of their way to accommodate their customers needs. Thank you very much for all you do 🙏💕 Car parking is safe at this hotel. Location is perfect for Town centre.

Property is exactly as pictured and very clean and cozy. Absolutely love the hotel-quality bedding and towels, made the stay feel so luxurious and great value for money. Although located at the port where there might not be as many activities, it is reasonably close to many attractions like Clacton Pier and Essex. Everyone in my family kept saying they would miss the place once we left and honestly we do! The games available also made the nights we spent more fun for us! Would love to stay again! Definitely highly recommend it!

The room was very spacious and clean. Well equipped with good flatscreen TV, tea, coffee etc. great power shower. Bed was so comfortable. The Indian restaurant attached to the Hotel was really good. Breakfast is a lakeside location about a 5 minute walk from main Hotel. Prices at Hotel and Restaurant great for location. Considering just 10 minutes by train you are inside M25 the waterside location was so quiet and serine. We shall definitely stay again, and would consider it a great base to explore Herts, Essex and London.

The view over Halfpenny Pier towards the Shotley peninsula was superb, there was always activity on the rivers Stour and Orwell. The hotel is superbly placed for using the Pier to board a vessel due to journey up either of the rivers or along the Essex and Suffolk coastlines. Within Harwich there are a number of historic buildings and sites to be enjoyed. The menu in the restaurant was interesting, our selected meals were always beautifully cooked and presented.

I found the staff at the hotel to be really friendly and efficient. I'd recommend this hotel purely for this reason. Location was acceptable, plenty of food outlets close by. Rooms were acceptable given price paid. There was an issue with my booking - I'd booked 2 rooms, but only one was reserved on arrival. This was sorted out quickly with no fuss when I arrived. If I have another wedding to go to in Essex, I'll book here again. Thanks

We booked a double & twin room got confirmation from booking .com checked in paid then found they had given us (2) double rooms was told by the duty manager it was our problem had to purchase additional room £109.00 this I want refunding as I have all the correct paperwork problem with the hotel & booking.com I will report this to the tourist board in Essex poor customer service

Lovely hotel in the most charming location in the village of Thaxted , Essex . The hotel has a cosy atmosphere and the staff are friendly and welcoming. My room was comfortable and well decorated , just the right size for my needs as I had a early flight the following morning . By the way that's another bonus it's only 20 mins away from the airport.

Beautiful village, good food, and especially friendly staff. Loved the cross between pub and hotel! Oh and the non regulation Tudor floors and walls, most relaxing stay for some time. Breakfast was excellent , and again the staff couldn't be more accommodating. If you wish to visit Essex,Suffolk or anywhere near, give it a go 😊😊

The Essex is a nice comfortable hotel with good facilities. Excellent pool area , with sauna, steam and spa bath all working well . The breakfast was cooked to order as there wasn’t any self serve buffet on the morning we were there . Have to say the breakfast was excellent , nice and freshly cooked with good quality produce .

Booked a room at the very last minute, but was able to check in after 11pm and the receptionist was very welcoming. The room was lovely, as always, and toasty warm. This is one of my favourite hotels in Essex - clean, cosy, welcoming, great atmosphere in the pub/restaurant too.

This was a charming period coaching inn set in a pretty part of north Essex, close to the Suffolk border. Our evening meal and cooked breakfast were very good. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Plenty of parking and nicely decorated room with wet room and shower.

Good location. Stock is where beautiful, historic Essex begins. Not as noisy as had expected. Excellent team of staff prepared and able to deal with any niggles. Breakfast very good but where is the black pudding which many guests apparently wish to order?

Fabulous little hotel tucked away in a quiet part of Essex. A real gem of a find. The Cherry Pub next door serving great food with very friendly helpful staff. Really clean accommodation easy to collect the key from the pub next door.

ideal location, just outside Braintree in Essex. Perfect for a one to tonight stuff over all the facilities you require in the apartment would recommend this to anyone as is a quiet little sound, very relaxing.

The location was excellent and easy to find. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and my room was above expectations. This hotel will be my first choice when I next come to Essex to stay.

We use this hotel everytime we need to go and stay for a few days in Essex, has a good location, easy parking, good breakfast, just what we looking for. Simple, good, standard, not problem.

I chose the location as I was missing Essex Campus. I loved the hotel and the stay, but the price could compete better with some of the good hotels in Town Centre. Staff were amazing!

A cozy apartment in a lovely quiet area just inside the Essex border, the heating was perfect for our arrival and it was very comfortable
