Had to wait 10 mins to check in as no staff were available. No towels in room assured they would be provided but still had to ask for them again at 22:30 when we got back to our room. Went down for breakfast at 9:00am, no staff. Waited until 9:10 only to be told that by the cleaner there were no staff again. Already paid for breakfast. NOT HAPPY!

Lovely Maldon trip.

Had an over-nighter with my old man. Comfy room, aircon, lovely view over the river... Delicious breakfast the following morning. Parking can be a bit iffy, but we found a space nearby... better from October, when all the regulations ease. The bar was well stocked and we had massive dinners! Plenty of shops a short walk away.

Jolly sailor fish on the quay

Staff very friendly and welcoming, food very good, good selection of fish dishes. Location is brilliant, like going back in time seeing all the Thames barges and able to take a trip on them. Only slight issue is the bathroom could do with a upgrade

Historic pub in a great location

I really liked this place because its such an historic building in a fantastic location. I particularly liked that the building had been built in the 1600's - I had been reading Daniel Defoe's account of coming to Maldon in 1700 and eating turbot, which he said was very good in the town. I was pleased to find turbot on the menu at Fish on the Quay - maybe he stayed here! We had a lovely view of the sunrise over the river and the Thames barges outside. It was bliss to wake up to the sound of sea birds in the morning. The pub wasn't noisy at all. The landlady Babs couldn't be more welcoming.

ROD

Liked: Staff & service
When we arrived the staff were welcoming and friendly although booking in system a bit chaotic and we did not receive all information about servicing rooms on daily basis. Ran out of towels, clean crockery, coffees and no hand wash in bathrooms. Bathrooms not very clean and floors decidedly grubby. A real shame as perfect location and very nice staff, maybe management issue! Rod and Sue
