Smooth check in, very warm and friendly landlord. He showed me up to the room and talked me through the code to get in from outside. I've lived in Wivenhoe before so didn't need any local info.
The room was very small with one small window up high, and a low bed. This made me feel quite boxed in. It was warm and clean but every few minutes a door slammed downstairs making the whole room shake.
I didn't know there would be no breakfast in the restaurant, and was quite looking forward to having humans around me on Christmas morning. Instead I found a tray of cold pastries and fruit outside my room. This made me feel isolated. If you're going to charge £116 for a room, please do make it better value for money. I paid the same for an amazing room with free mini bar and amazing breakfast at Greyfriars ! All in all, A nice place but way overpriced for what it is.

I booked a room about January2024 for a wedding that we are going to in September2024 with *********** they took my money and 6 months later they cancelled it and gave my money back saying the hotel has cancelled, i went on another site and they had 1 room left £20 more then what i paid. All i can say is if you treat to many people like that you will be out of business.

Lovely stay with gorgeous continental breakfast. Room was great except only one hook on back of door to hang clothes which is not enough. Would also like to see a shelf in shower for shampoo etc instead of having to place on the shower tray
Perfect otherwise though

Love staying here and am a regular. This last stay was ruined by lack of sleep. My room (4) was directly above the kitchen and someone was working in there noisily until 0130 when I went downstairs to find out how long the noise would continue.

Very pleased to see The Flag given a new lease of life as a former local returning to visit family! The rooms are very well thought out, immaculately clean and beautifully decorated (compliments to the designer!). Bed was extremely comfortable. Biscuits, water jug and coffee machine were all lovely touches. Staff very friendly and helpful - clearly passionate about this place. Only minor negative was the en suite sliding door tends to slide back open, but should be an easy fix. Bar/restaurant very nice but a bit on the pricey side.
