Colchester Castle and Museum absolutely brilliant especially for children. We went on a Sunday morning and found cheap parking near Castle Park but can imagine that it would be a nightmare to drive around Colchester on a weekday without entering bus lanes and one way systems!

Colchester is an excellent base for travelling the neighbouring places of interest. I stayed there for the history of the city and there is plenty to see. City centre in 21st century isn't great.

Alvento are very polite in their communication and when you call the help line and have properties in 27 locations in the UK ! The house itself was OK , but I was not impressed with the sparsity of equipment in the property, nor the service provided by the property host , I will only be leaving a 1 star review , and that is for the charming dressing table and stool in the master bedroom ,

We coincided with Oktoberfest weekend at the castle. A major annual event. Even ended up in the pub with everyone late in the evening, which was entertaining and good-natured. We walked around town earlier during the day and found great places to stop off and to eat… Recommend Colchester for a weekend visit

We only stayed overnight in Colchester and left round lunchtime, so didnt have much time to browse, but we went to a few places and walked round the park! We will come back again and visit the castle. The area around there looks beautiful, too!

Kumar.. a great member of staff. Like really, just what you want from your staff. Location… Colchester train station an easy 15 stroll away. We were heading to the radio 2 PITP event at Chelmsford, which took 25 mins or so, stopped at two other stations (I think Whitham was one of them..) and it cost £24 return for 2 adults on Saturday .. all in, so not £24 each.. FYI we used TrainPal (again..). Free parking right behind the hotel. Mini market next door, 24 hours (we believe) but quiet and very well stocked.

It is a lovely and clean hotel, with a very pretty outside dining area. There was a wedding reception which slowed down the drink and food service considerably, for guests but the staff were very apologetic for the delays and were doing their best. If your looking for value for money in Colchester, this hotel is an excellent choice.

Room was a small box room with toilet, shower. Bed and pillows OK. This is an 600+ year old lovely hotel with a bit of history. Had a decent sleep and location right in the heart of Colchester. I would book this hotel again.

Loverly hotel right in the heart of Colchester with free on-site parking (albeit with a narrow access). Plenty of choices with the continental breakfast. Earlier check-in than most places. Friendly, helpful staff.
