"The room was fine, good size, clean, everything in working order. However, the room was extremely hot with no air conditioning and there was a lot of noise from outside. Staff were very helpful, allowed us to check in early but unable to change our room to reduce heat or noise as the hotel was full. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice."

The Essex Golf and Country Club

8/10 Good
"Staff were all very helpful and courteous and the room was clean and spacious but little details like a small fridge and maybe bottled water would not go amiss! What really let the venue down was being told after 6 pm they couldn’t serve alcohol from the bar due to the alcohol licence lapsing which was not a good look for many guests staying and left the poor bar staff having to deal with explaining to several irate customers which the staff dealt with well! Also not the fault of the hotel but very noisy guests above us slamming doors and thumping around most of the night like they had hobnail boots on and it sounded as if they were moving furniture so this led to a very broken night’s sleep which was a shame because the bed was very comfortable!"

Wivenhoe House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We had a two night stay at Wivenhoe House hotel whilst attending a wedding. We booked a standard room which was adequate for our needs, it was clean and comfortable, bathroom had a lovely shower with complimentary products provided. I was impressed by the ‘real’ milk in the mini fridge, makes a big difference to your tea/coffee compared to the long life variety. There is plenty of breakfast options to choose from, they have covered all preferences, no complaints about what we had. Finally, I must mention how friendly and helpful the staff are at Wivenhoe House Hotel, each one we met had a smile, even if we just passed them in the corridor, well done Wivenhoe House, it makes a difference 😊"
