Was Gäste sagen

Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass das Holiday Inn Express Colchester by IHG in aktuellen Bewertungen für freundliches Personal, gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und saubere, komfortable Zimmer gelobt wird. Häufig genannte Nachteile sind gebührenpflichtiges Parken, unterschiedlicher Komfort der Matratzen und Schlafsofas, gelegentliche Lärmbelästigung sowie eine uneinheitliche Leistung von WLAN und Klimaanlage.

Das Frühstück wird oft als gut mit einer angemessenen Auswahl beschrieben, obwohl einige Gäste fehlende Artikel, lauwarmes Essen oder schwachen Kaffee während Stoßzeiten erwähnen. Die Lage direkt an der A12 ist günstig für Colchester und Fährfahrten nach Harwich, jedoch ist die Umgebung nicht fußläufig gut erschlossen. Die Sauberkeit ist im Allgemeinen gut, jedoch gibt es Berichte über Spinnweben, abgenutzte Teppiche auf den Fluren und gelegentliche Versäumnisse bei der Reinigung. Erwarten Sie einen Aufenthalt mit gutem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis und praktischem Komfort, der typisch für ein Budget-Hotel ist.

Speedy check-in. Check in first before you pay to park & as long as they take your email it is free. Comfy beds, clean room, decent toilet rolls, dove body wash & a great cooked breakfast. WiFi a bit sketchy & carpet in corridors has seen better days. That said didn’t put us of at all, would recommend & would definitely stay again.

Good stay here again - breakfast was hotter this time which was appreciated. Room comfortable and shower was good. I don't appreciate being charged £8 for parking which was previously free, but overall it's still an OK hotel for a business one-nighter.

The hotel is currently having some renovation work done to it and i was lucky enough to have an excellent newly refurbished room with air conditioning that was an absolute godsend on a day that topped over 30oC However, there was no wifi available and my phone signal wasn't the greatest, so it meant working on my laptop a slow process. I'm sure that in time, the wifi will be sorted out once all the refurbishment work has been carried out.

Excellent room, bed and breakfast but unfortunately I was (illegally) charged £8 for parking when the Hotel.com website promised free parking. The receptionist refused to honour this and said the Hotel.com administrators had failed to update their listing.

I didn’t really see any staff members during my stay! On the day I arrived I checked in quickly and the young man was really helpful. The room was lovely and had all the amenities I required. It was quiet and the beds were comfortable and clean. The bathroom was newly refurbished I think and I loved the blue light so my daughter could find the bathroom during the night. The breakfast the next morning had good choice and good quality items. We enjoyed the breakfast a lot! The late check out was great for us and the location was convenient as we could drive to Colchester in 10 minutes, but it felt remote and quiet. I would definitely stay here again due to the location and the price was amazing compared to others in the area. The only downside was the amount of dust and cobwebs! So many in all areas which was a little disgusting , but we saw no staff members to inform them about it!

Booked in for 4 nights and every day after arrival on returning to the hotel room I had to go to reception and complain about something. Air conditioning in the room didn't work. 1st day return - opened our bedroom door and myself and daughter and even the 2 grandkids complained that there was a smell of smoke - no smoking allkwed in the rooms and none of us smoke and the windows were closed - reception advised that the hotel was fully booked now and that no spare rooms were avail - I only asked for an air freshener. Day 2 return - out all day from early morning and returned late evening - returned to room and noticed door was not pulled closed (we always check we close and ensure the door is locked before leaving the room) also the towels hadn't been changed, room not made up and the bins not emptied. (advised hotel was busy and they cannot always do all rooms). Day 3 return - with 2 girls and 2 adults, we were left with 1 bath towel and 1 hand towel - again went to reception to ask for more towels, advised that someone would deliver us more towels in about 10 mins, 90 mins later I decided to go and ask again as no towels had appeared. Breakfast was the only good thing I'd have to say about this hotel.

On the whole, a nice hotel. Fantastic staff, always helpful. There were a few issues that let the hotel down. Carpet on ground floor corridor to rooms was loose and tended to bunch up. This would be a trip hazard to those not steady on their feet. The carpet in our room (63) was stained in a number of places, and was looking tired. The door to our room did not close due to rubbing on the carpet. The door to the toilet made a tremendous squeel when shutting and opening. There were stains on the door and wall around the hinges and wall where staff had tried (lazily) to fix the noise. The noise is due to the hinges being stressed and no amount of lubricant will help. Other than these few points, our stay was very good. Disappointed that the lighting was not using led's.

Overall it looked a nice hotel for a one night stay whilst visiting the local zoo. The room was comfy and generally clean however when we woke up on Sunday morning and wanting a nice fresh cup of tea it was very disappointing to see that firstly there was already water left in the kettle but more shockingly the two cups available had both been used and not cleaned after last visitors. A small thing but never the less not something I would expect and also pointless to complain at the time as we were going to breakfast shortly and then checking out. The breakfast was ok, hot food was good with a reasonable selection. Unfortunately no mushrooms or any small pastries which many many hotels do for the same price.

Stayed one night with two adults & children aged 11 & 14 Parking was £8 a day which I hadn’t noticed before but given proximity to A12 understand why but would be been nice to poss have barriers and free parking Check in was polite and quick, room and bathroom spotless. We were in room 146 which back onto fields so could not hear motorway, although we did have air con on (which we could not seem to turn down to more than 22, probably just could not work this out) Sofa bed for kids was not comfy for them, maybe this was due to their age/size Breakfast was quick and easy and noticed they did a take away service. Polite friendly staff, clean and good for what we needed.

Great hotel, central location. Nice staff. Great breakfast. Room was clean. But big let down were the beds. Sooooo uncomfortable and small. Duvet barely covered the bed so scaring it with my husband was interesting! The sofa bed for the children was horrific. Doings sticking out everywhere. Such a shame as the stay would have been excellent if we could have slept!

Hotel was nice but a little bit dated. Stains on the carpet but sheets were clean and the bathroom was clean. Beds were definitely used and saggy but if you like soft mattresses that would work for you. Area only has a petrol station near it but I believe there may be a bus nearby to get elsewhere. Not far from town centre with a car, about 20 mins. Breakfast is adequate. Friendly staff. Join the rewards program and get free parking. I would stay there again.

On return to the hotel on which would have been our 3rd night stay, we found the hotel in darkness apart from emergency lighting and torches. Apparently there was a power outage in the local area including the hotel. The reception staff being very professional explained the situation and gave us the choice of staying with no electricity or move on to another hotel which has been organised by the hotel. We decided to go to the other hotel, nearly 10 miles away. These things happen, situations beyond the control of the hotel. They could not of made this inconvenience any easier for us to continue our trip. Thanks Holiday Inn Colchester.

I Loved the property as a whole, and the great price compared to other hotels in the area. I didn't like the Sofa Bed, the mattess was too thin, and had to.ise towels so kids are not hurt. Service wasn't great, no concierge staff, they are always in the back or doing 6 other jobs, not enough staff to serve the cusromers needs. One concierge was serving drinks at the bar next to the desk, while also being a concierge. Absolutely crazy, felt sorry for the staff.

I was really disappointed with my stay I usually rate IHG hotels and travel for work but I only managed about 2 hours of sleep because I was in a room opposite and between groups of men who messed around in the corridor and slammed doors until midnight! I tried to call reception as as solo female didn't feel safe or as though I could challenge, unfortunately got no answer. The outside noise isn't great either. Maybe more mindful allocation of rooms for solo guests would help and keeping an eye on unruly guests.

The check in and staff were amazing. They offered a welcome pack of a bottle of water and chocolate bar and breakfast bar. This wasn’t expected and due to the heat it was very welcome. We stayed as we had travelled for an Ed Sheeran concert and they had all the info of the show available and just went above and beyond ensuring the stay was pleasant and made a bond with their guests. I would thoroughly recommend staying and Kate (manager) was exceptional and so welcoming.
