the hotel has a surprisingly quiet location next to a shopping area and Clacton-On-Sea. the room is a nice size and fully-equipped with a kettle, coffee/tea maker, and a hair dryer. 3. the garden view from the window is great.

The accommodation had a central location close to the Dartford tunnel. Plus, it was near the nice shopping centre, and lakeside.

The room was airy and accommodating, included with other lighting as well as working desk. Besides, the location was peaceful and easy for our stay, within 15 minutes' walk of Lakeside Shopping Centre.

The triple room booked here had good amenities.

Convenient location. Good parking. Clean. Fairtrade refreshments in room. Nice breakfast with good choice.

Not enough staff to look after bar area - ie had to disturb staff occupied doing other things in order to get served. All tables had not been cleaned from last visitors. Incoming staff arrived on shift and apologised for untidiness and commenced operation tidy bar area.

We stayed overnight after attending a wedding there.

I felt that there was not enough staff available so the staff there were under incredible pressure although were trying their best !!! the showers were very poor.

The location of the property was exceptionally nice and perfect. We were very close to the restaurant, a nice shopping center with many tasty restaurants around, and better signposting from the roundabout.

The public areas had their own special charm, public toilets and the sanitary facilities in the room were clean, the hotel was kept very quiet and relaxing. Parking possibilities were very generous. The hotel provided security regarding the location.

Furniture in the room was of poor quality, the room was getting old and needed renovation, the furniture needed to be replaced. The bathroom on the other hand was neat and clean.

Stayed here for 4 nights and greatly enjoyed our choice. the breakfast was plentiful with coffees including takeaway cups and scrambled eggs. - Its location in Aveley was perfect and peaceful. - Very close to the communal areas, lakeside shopping center. - Better signposting from roundabout and outside.

bathroom to small no drawers in room not enough hangers,no table to sit at. tv to low to watch from siiting on the bed

The breakfast was successful and rich.

We were on the road with 3 children (9,8 and 7). The children's room was in a different wing and on a different floor, so that we parents then split up, as we thought this was unreasonable for the children. . The creaking floorboards, which radiated a certain charm, but even for the adults it was impossible to move quietly.

Well priced place with friendly, efficient staff providing top customer service. Plentiful breakfast and lots of goodies. - Central location close to a shopping area. - Convenient proximity to Lakeside shopping, the largest shopping center in Europe. - Improved signposting from the roundabout and outside.

The service of the staff was excellent, especially during breakfast. We were at the hotel for a wedding & it was a lovely set up with huge outdoor area.

Unfortunately there is no facility to use a debit / credit card for drinks or to put the cost of drinks on the room. Luckily we had taken a lot of cash for the evening.

we have no complaints everything was fine nice staff and good value rooms were very nice

This traditional hotel offers good value and provided us with a pleasant stay.
