Hotels With Breakfast in Essex, United Kingdom

We stopped at this Hotel on 17th September 2022 The Hotel is well placed in a good location, from the hotel there is a transfer bus to the airport every 30-minutes cost £4.00 per person payable on the bus. We booked the hotel through Holiday Extras and the cost included 7-days parking at the hotel, the car parks were large and secure, and you keep the car keys, we had no problems finding a parking space. The room we had was clean and spacious and we could not fault. We ate in the Hotel's Restaurant, the food and drinks were reasonably priced, and our waiter Dimitar was very polite and attenuative. If flying from Stanstead Airport again I would choose this hotel

Nice hotel, You can reach it by a bus from Stansted Airport. One is free for other You need to pay 4 pounds. So it's better to take the free one, it start directly from terminal. Mid stay par car bus. Breakfast - no cheese, no ham, no vegetables so quite poor

My go to place when I have an early flight from Stansted! The rooms are spacious, clean and the bed is so comfy. Breakfast is included and offer an amazing variety. The dining options are good and tasty. Some unusual lighter options are also very good.

What was supposed to be a relaxing weekend started off as very stressful indeed as neither of the receptionists knew what the parking rules were so despite having downloaded the parking app before we left home, on arrival, when we queried why we could only pay until 6pm we were told there was an error on the app but not to worry, if we got a ticket we could claim a refund as a member of staff had done recently. After an hour of driving around trying to find where we could park, even asking a traffic warden who was only on 'transmit mode' and kept repeating it was the hotel we needed to speak to and they must have given us an incorrect code, we parked up outside the hotel where we'd first parked and paid for the parking to 6pm despite being told by the hotel it was to 9pm and as there was a show on at the Cliffs there would be traffic wardens about. We weren't offered the option to book breakfast on check in and so decided having read the mixed reviews to not bother and would go out the next day and get something in Southend. The triple room we booked was very comfortable and once we'd put the heating on, soon warmed up. There were plenty of amenities in the room - the only thing missing were glasses - but there were coffee mugs. The location is perfect for The Cliffs Theatre and there are plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. The whole experience though could have been much better and less stressful if we'd been given correct information on the parking. At 6pm we got a reminder our parking was due to run out and we then booked the next 24 hours. Fortunately we didn't listen to the receptionist who told us we didn't need to worry about parking until 11am the next day. There was a wedding fayre on at the weekend - let's hope anyone booking a wedding there ensures their guests come by train or they get better information on the parking than we did - otherwise they could miss the wedding whilst driving around trying to find where / how to park!!

From the moment I arrived I was given the VIP treatment. All the staff were helpful from helping me with the correct car parking procedure as I was running late. The meal was an outstanding five course which deserved a Michelin Star, at an unbelievably competitive price. I should have photographed at least the main course, starter & desert. Very sorry. The function room when I think about it now, was a bit on the bland side but wasn’t noticeable on the day due to the great company I was with and the wonderful band that entertained us. The restaurant area was more cosy and intimate, so ignore the bland function room. The whole hotel was immaculate and spacious with large rooms and plenty of car parking spaces. Wishing people a nice stay like myself.

This hotel is adequate enough and our room on level 1 was a good size. In nicer weather a lovely outdoors space with good view can be utilised. The restaurant in this hotel is very nice and worth a visit. The music in the restaurant for breakfast was much more the vibe I would expect with a boutique hotel (chill out Ibiza). The music the night before in the bar area was questionable (boy George) and not aligned to the following morning. The one irritation with this hotel is the fact they do not make you aware (our receptionist) did not anyway! About the parking in front of the hotel not being Free on a Sunday. On arrival we were not lucky enough find a space in the hotels carpark so parked opposite the hotel entrance. Once we checked in we asked if parking was free at the front. The receptionist confirmed it was not free so we downloaded the app and paid ( she did not make this information known on arrival). The receptionist did not then explain parking was also required for the Sunday. We were issued a fine at 08:20 Sunday morning. After paying the fine I spoke to the hotel to give my recommendation that all hotel guests should be made fully aware of parking rules. The receptionist I spoke with said she always tells people and I just confirmed that our receptionist did not. When I left on the Sunday with my fine I counted how many other cars also had a ticket. The number was 10. I do not believe this hotel is doing its best to inform guests which leaves a question mark for me. I personally won’t be returning as I feel other hotels in Southend area have the edge and the fine has left a bit of a negative experience that could have easily been avoided.

This is a really lovely hotel with very good amenities. My only moan was that the car park is strictly pay no exceptions £4 to park your car at a hotel where you are staying seems a bit wrong. Although it wouldn’t necessarily put us off going again there are alternative hotels in the area that have free parking for guests.

Absolutely wonderful hotel all round. The room and balcony exceeded my expectations, and really pleased me, and my standards are very high and I submitted some specific requests. Top floor, room 904, advised now this one and 910 very popular. Both the room and balcony a really nice size too. Lovely facilities. Nice view of Colchester castle etc. Nice communal areas. The George hotel communal areas are wonderful too and lovely breakfast, great choice, beautifully cooked, and I requested to sit elsewhere as so many beautiful options, and for me generally and as need my own space, and peace as much as possible, and am still very aware re.COVID-19, I eventually arranged to sit in the lovely courtyard. Too busy and noisy for me in the main restaurant. Exemplary staff. I also really liked the fact that you could switch the bathroom ventilator off, otherwise it comes on when you put the light on. Of course one should always switch it on when using the shower and keep it on briefly afterwards. My first Surya experience. Sublime.

Lovely hotel with good space (family room). 2 minute walk to the airport.Everything was clean and first impressions of the hotel was impressive. Good value as booked through booking.com. Would definitely stay again.

When I originally phoned the hotel I requested an early check in as my son was getting married at 2pm. I was asked to call the day before to check times which I did, as they we're still unsure I was asked to call again the morning of arrival. The receptionist was extremely helpful and said we can arrive for an 11 check-in but as there were 4 of us we would be on separate floors which wasn't a problem. We arrived at 11am to be told we were on the same floor as she had managed to jiggle the rooms around. We wanted some more tea, milk and sugar for our room and we're given a handful of everything which was great from the very helpful cleaner and again for the other 2 people in our party at the front desk who again couldn't have been more helpful. The self service breakfast was brilliant. Couldn't fault anything. Thank you again for accommodating our needs.
