The hotel offers comfortable and welcoming rooms after a long trip, although the proximity to the cleaners' station was a slight inconvenience. The service, while friendly and good with children, showed signs of being short-staffed. The location is quiet and near Colchester, despite occasional noise disturbances during late hours. Dining provided good value for money, with some minor issues in service speed. Overall, a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was mixed. The room provided one of the best nights I’ve had in a hotel room regarding sleep quality, but there were cleanliness issues such as stained bed frames and overall dirtiness. The noise from the slamming fire door in the corridor was quite bothersome. The service, mainly from the receptionist, was efficient and friendly, but there were times when the staff seemed preoccupied. The location was great for visiting family and accessing town centers, but the presence of a railway line with continuous train noise disrupted the tranquility. The dining experience was subpar, with overpriced continental breakfast lacking in quality. Facilities were decent overall.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but I was disappointed to find only a shower instead of a bath. The service was friendly overall, but there were issues with disruptive guests that made me uncomfortable. The location was convenient for our needs, but we faced confusion over breakfast timings. The dining options were hit or miss, with some good selections but also disappointments. The facilities offered were satisfactory, but there were some hiccups during my stay.

My stay at the Colchester Holiday Inn was absolutely fabulous! The rooms were lovely and clean, the food was delicious, and we were looked after exceptionally well by the fabulous staff. Having access to the health center during our stay was a great perk, and we left very happy, definitely planning to stay again.
