콜체스터 부티크 호텔(Colchester Boutique Hotel)

We had a lovely afternoon tea. Good selection of sandwiches, cakes and fruit with tea, coffee and Prosecco. Host was very friendly and showed us around the hotel. The rooms are all amazing and very tastefully decorated. Highly recommended.

A lovely hotel just 3 minutes walk to main street the hosts are very friendly and helpful carried our luggage to upstairs room which was warm comfortable very comfy bed and pillows very clean continental breakfast lots of variety great coffee would highly recommend

By far the BEST customer service! We booked an afternoon tea and absolutely everything was perfect. The venue is immaculately clean and very well decorated. The owner and his staff could not have done more to look after us from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. If only every venue was as good as this one!!! We will be back, thank you

We loved this quirky and very comfortable hotel! Roland was the most perfect host, with lots of interesting stories, told with great humor. The breakfast buffet was delicious, with many options. The free onsite parking is hard to find in this area, and everything is within a short walking distance. Accommodations were clean, comfortable, and quiet. We highly recommend this hotel and hope to come back soon.

Excellent hotel...beautiful old building with comfortable rooms and great decor run by really friendly people and to top it all a great healthy breakfast plus perfect location by the city centre.

The good points first. The shower room was very well designed and the breakfast was really nice. A good selection of food including fruit, cold meats, cheese. Also fresh coffee. Not so good was the room. We were in what the man in Reception told us was the only twin room (I was staying with a friend). The room was out the back at the end of a sort of kitchen one storey extension. It was tiny and not our idea of boutique - unless you're thinking of those shops that call themselves boutique but just sell lots of cheap clothes that fall apart when you wear them. The beds were lumpy to put it mildly. They didn't have full covers but just squares of some protective fabric that was ridged around the outside so not very comfy - the sort of thing you might put on a child's bed in case of accidents maybe. My bed had a large flat piece of wood between the mattress and the box bedstead. We didn't know why, maybe the bedstead was damaged? The mattresses were dreadful. Honestly. I don't usually write a review if its bad as I don't like to affect someone's business, but in this case I decided to. When we asked the man in Reception where the 'Boutique' was in this experience, he said that it was in the main house. I have checked on the site and it says 'The entire unit located on ground floor'. This does not tell you that it is not in the main hotel - where the rooms may be very nice, I don't know. They look OK in the photos. Point is, even if this room was not meant to be up to the standard possibly of the others, it showed very little care or attention to any sort of detail. PS whoever screwed the bedheads to the wall, the one on the left is crooked. Maybe a spirit level would help? We would have been happy with an adequate room. We weren't expecting anything out of the ordinary really. But this room was not adequate, and first rule of any hotel, make sure your beds are halfway comfortable.

We arrived for an afternoon tea on 17th April, the hotel being easily accessible and just round the corner from the High Street in the city. We were greeted by James and Daniel and looked after extremely well. First to arrives was the fizz. Then, after few minutes, a filling selection of sandwiches, cakes and scones, all very fresh and well presented, were delivered to the table with panache by Daniel. This was all rounded off with a tea and a coffee. We have to say this was the best afternoon tea we have had in Colchester. A very enjoyable visit. Well done.

Nice hotel in a great location. Room was comfy but not as clean as it should have been and the hotel needs a little maintenance but still a nice place to stay. The staff were welcoming. Watch out for the narrow access to the car park... limited amount of parking at rear.

Highly recommend. Stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed a good nights sleep in a very comfortable bed. The room was spotless, and the bathroom was cleaned daily . Fresh water was provided daily throughout our stay. The continental breakfast had something for everyone, so much choice. Can highly recommend the scrambled egg. The staff were lovely from the moment you arrived. Look forward to our next visit.
