"The property has changed hands quite recently and many of the features mentioned in older reviews are no longer available.
The hotel was rated as "Wonderful". It's ok at best.
Everything feels rationed eg we were asked if we'd like one slice of toast or two. There was only one biscuit in the room . The rest were locked up and unavailable without management authorisation.
The hotel's own website is wildly inaccurate - it claims sea views, a pool and gymn at a hotel in Colchester - many miles from the coast with no leisure facilities.
The staff tried really hard to make our stay better but too many hospitality basics were missing

"Room temperature was obscene 27 degrees and we couldnt turn it down advised reception who advsised us it would be resolved for when we got back to the hotel to sleep , my god it was so so hot we paid for late checkout but we couldnt sleep so left early morning - appaled"
"Lovely friendly staff
Big shout out to the lovely waitress at breakfast who was on her own due to staff sickness and was so pleasant deserving rushed off her feet
Room was nicely decorated and very comfy bed "
"Check in was straight forward.
- Bathroom was not very clean
- Urine on the toilet seat
- Shower was boiling due to shower hose split and cold water escaping
- Stained bed linen
Would have been nice to have some bottled water in the room.
Asked for an iron and was burnt so couldn’t use it.
Had a room facing high street that was extremely noisy so had little sleep.
