Breakfast is frequently praised for quality, variety, and freshly cooked options. Rooms are comfortable and characterful, with several offering sea or balcony views. Expect a charming, well-run base close to Southend’s attractions, best suited to travellers comfortable with stairs.

Nicely furnished, maintained, and managed accommodation with a yummy breakfast! Nice access to area attractions! It was a bit hot with no air conditioning and without much breeze blowing so, we tried to keep the windows opened … however, motorcycles and talking pedestrians outside were noisy rather late. So, there was a trade off between having a cooler room with open windows but having to endure disturbingly loud motorcycles and other street noises. Luckily there was a portable fan in the room … if not for that fan, it would have been uncomfortably hot and sweaty.

Everything was fine but guests should be warned there is no lift and no toilets except in rooms We both needed accessable facilities. I could not order a drink at breakfast as climbing three flights of stairs again was not physically an option. 30s I could not order a drink of breakfast this claiming three flights of stairs again was not physically an option .

Perfect for an over night stay. Friendly, helpful staff. Important things very clean, though corners don't stand up to a close inspection. I had a lovely quiet room at the back - a free upgrade from that booked. Nice breakfast offering. Easy parking, but chargeable on road outside.

Fantastic breakfast - very tasty, one of the best we've had. Room was fine, bathroom a little cramped (especially the toilet - very little knee room). Shower looked fancy, albeit water/limescale stained, and not really sufficient water pressure. No dedicated parking, lucky if you can park on the road out front, otherwise nearby car parks can work out very expensive.

Debbie and her staff were very helpful, polite and extremely attentive throughout our stay and nothing was too much trouble. A special thanks to Debbie for arranging a surprise gift from me for my wife to be left in our room for her upon our arrival. We found the property to be full of character, with lots of lovely finishing touches, the attention to detail was above and beyond what we would have expected. It can be seen just how hard they have worked to renovate and preserve what is after all a period listed property, well done to all. Finally our room, which we were upgraded to (Balcony Suite) was truly spectacular with views out to sea, beautifully furnished, spacious, comfortable, spotlessly clean and tidy and so cosy, which was to be appreciated as the weather was awful unfortunately during our stay. Breakfast was amazing and freshly prepared, with plenty of choices available to suit anyone. We will definitely be back soon and look forward to better weather 😂 thanks for making our stay one to remember for all the right reasons, excellent !

My wife and I go to Southend often and found the Hamiltons Boutique Hotel which we haven't stayed in before. We had a message in the morning to confirm what time we'll be arriving which I thought was a nice touch. We had a lovely welcome and being out of season, we was given the Hamilton Suite with a sea view. The whole hotel was lovely and clean and bright with lots of light. The next morning we had a lovely cooked breakfast each. 100% will be out "go to" hotel when we go to Southend now. Great location right by the town but also a short walk to the pier. Thank you.

We only stayed one night but everything was excellent - the tea & coffee station had proper Yorkshire Tea and also had crisps and water! The shower toiletries were good quality. Everything was clean and it felt that it had only been done up recently. Would definitely stay here again, worth paying more for a room with a sea view if you can. We looked over the back of the hotel but it was fine. Breakfast was great too my partner had the full English and I have avocado & poached egg. There was a greater choice than just the usual.

Sea view is obscured by trees. Balcony tbh not worth the upgrade as apart from no direct view of the sea we both felt the deck boards unsafe to stand on as very flexible. Room was larger then expected and if old school is your thing you'd love it. Exposed period floor board's which creak on every movement. Breakfast was great although took 25 min from ordering to turning up and somewhat smaller then expected but good. Staff all great and helpful. We was meeting family in Southend after returning to UK from holiday so they ended up staying in the hotel down road (Seven) so we meet them there.

Superb position by the seafront and close to Southend Pier, the town centre, and attractions, with most places walkable. Several rooms have sea views; guests like being slightly away from the busiest stretch yet still central.

Breakfast was excellent with good variety of food. Staff and service excellent, very welcoming and helpful.

Lovely boutique hotel looking overlooking the Thames estuary with authentic historical connections to Nelson and Lady Hamilton.

My wife and I go to Southend often and found the Hamiltons Boutique Hotel which we haven't stayed in before. We had a message in the morning to confirm what time we'll be arriving which I thought was a nice touch. We had a lovely welcome and being out of season, we was given the Hamilton Suite with a sea view. The whole hotel was lovely and clean and bright with lots of light. The next morning we had a lovely cooked breakfast each. 100% will be out "go to" hotel when we go to Southend now. Great location right by the town but also a short walk to the pier. Thank you.

We loved our two night stay at Hamiltons Boutique. Lovely breakfast each morning. Close to beach, amusement parrk, multiple pubs and fish and chip places. The staff are courteous. Our room was spic and span. Definitely will be back.

The property was on the seafront overlooking the beach, Southend Pier, and the amusements. All of the food outlets were either on the seafront or within 20 minutes walk east or west along the parade or north going towards Sainsburys. Lovely place which i hope to visit again.

Breakfast is a standout across reviews, consistently described as delicious, freshly cooked, and offering a broad choice beyond the usual full English. A few note occasional waits, but overall satisfaction is very high.

A beautiful small boutique hotel directly above the sea. Quiet but also very centrally. The breakfast was wonderful, everything was made fresh a la minute. The whole hotel is in a perfect state, the rooms are beautifully renovated with high quality furniture. Nothing was missed, we had a wonderful stay!

Very nice small hotel, we were given a better room free as it was not booked. Nice spacious room and excellent shower. The breakfast was very good quality with a wide choice of options. Please consider using non single use bathroom supplies.

Nicely furnished, maintained, and managed accommodation with a yummy breakfast! Nice access to area attractions! It was a bit hot with no air conditioning and without much breeze blowing so, we tried to keep the windows opened … however, motorcycles and talking pedestrians outside were noisy rather late. So, there was a trade off between having a cooler room with open windows but having to endure disturbingly loud motorcycles and other street noises. Luckily there was a portable fan in the room … if not for that fan, it would have been uncomfortably hot and sweaty.

Sea view is obscured by trees. Balcony tbh not worth the upgrade as apart from no direct view of the sea we both felt the deck boards unsafe to stand on as very flexible. Room was larger then expected and if old school is your thing you'd love it. Exposed period floor board's which creak on every movement. Breakfast was great although took 25 min from ordering to turning up and somewhat smaller then expected but good. Staff all great and helpful. We was meeting family in Southend after returning to UK from holiday so they ended up staying in the hotel down road (Seven) so we meet them there.

Perfect for an over night stay. Friendly, helpful staff. Important things very clean, though corners don't stand up to a close inspection. I had a lovely quiet room at the back - a free upgrade from that booked. Nice breakfast offering. Easy parking, but chargeable on road outside.

Very friendly staff, clean and tidy room, walking distance to sea front one way and main town the other - about 5 minutes. Breakfast amazing, even M&S zero fat Greek Yoghurt selection and perfect Avocado with lightly poached egg! Full English cooked fresh and looked very appetising. Will definitely return!

Fantastic breakfast - very tasty, one of the best we've had. Room was fine, bathroom a little cramped (especially the toilet - very little knee room). Shower looked fancy, albeit water/limescale stained, and not really sufficient water pressure. No dedicated parking, lucky if you can park on the road out front, otherwise nearby car parks can work out very expensive.

We only stayed one night but everything was excellent - the tea & coffee station had proper Yorkshire Tea and also had crisps and water! The shower toiletries were good quality. Everything was clean and it felt that it had only been done up recently. Would definitely stay here again, worth paying more for a room with a sea view if you can. We looked over the back of the hotel but it was fine. Breakfast was great too my partner had the full English and I have avocado & poached egg. There was a greater choice than just the usual.

It was a fantastic stay right from check in. The host was a lovely lady that went out of her way to make our stay perfect. The room exceeded our expectations. Very light, airy and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. I particularly enjoyed the continental buffet which included fresh fruit (strawberries, melons, blueberries etc) and yogurt. Fresh coffee served in a cafetiere. Full English breakfast was cooked to perfection and well presented. The location was great. Short walk to pier and attractions. Really couldn't fault our stay. Thanks!!

Lovely host and room. Breakfast was really nice. Noise from the road outside and loud cars at night was the only downside (albeit no fault of our our host).

This hotel is beautifully presented with lots of attention to detail. The staff were extremely helpful and the breakfast was amazing. I've stayed in so many hotels lately that were a disappointment so I didn't expect too much. I was very pleasantly surprised and will definitely return!
