Nice hotel. No lift and most rooms on the second floor. Steep staircase. An accident waiting to happen. No air conditioning also. In 2024 at the prices for this hotel it is poor no to have a modern air conditioning units as standard.

Would stay again - old quirky hotel
Very pleasant stay - old quirky hotel right in centre of Colchester. Parking was fine just behind the hotel. Very friendly staff and comfortable room. My only comment would be that the stairs are quite steep leading up to the top so request a room on first floor if steep flights of stairs may be a concern - but for me it was a great stay and would return next time in Colchester. Thank you
