Excellent breakfast

Welcoming. Accommodated early check in . Very good breakfast. Room clean. Beds comfortable. Bathroom a little dated. Shower seemed to work back to front but water was hot. Free parking. Bus stop directly outside to get into Colchester.

4/10 Fair

Noisy rooms and breakfast not served after 8.50am

The rooms above the pub face an extremely busy main road with no sound proofing. We were awake for most of the night with the constant traffic noise. Breakfast stops being served at 8.50am which we were not told about at check-in. We arrived at 9am and no exception was made even though someone received their breakfast at 9.15am

Family friendly

Our Family Stayed for 3 nights! What a pleasure to stay somewhere so friendly and accommodating! Family room was ideal for us and our 2 young boys! There were toys available to keep them busy whilst we got settled in, rooms were clean and a lot of things were considered for comfort and practicality! We appreciated how laid back everything was, there was lots of space for the kids to move around and their play/sandpit area was a massive hit! Staff were so friendly and happy to help! There was lots of choice at breakfast and standard of ingredients and meals overall was fantastic! :) will be staying again! And would recommend for other families! :)

This is a fantastic pub with a stylish set of rooms separate from the main building. Fantastic views.

Amazing side road gem to rest with delicious food

Such a nice little gem outside of London as a stop if you’re travelling through or a base if you’re exploring the eastern countryside. The food was particularly delicious and the generous portion sizes will not leave anyone disappointed. We endeavour to return :)

8/10 Very good

It's not in Colchester Town.

As the hotel location information (map and local access info) was about the King's Arms in Colchester town on the Hotels.com website, I initially went there where I was told that I was at a wrong King's Arms and that they did not have any rooms. The King's Arms I had booked turned out to be the one 40-minute bus ride away from Colchester town. The correct King's Arms was a nice place to stay offering great food. My room was fine in size and very clean but adjusting the shower was a little tricky and there was nowhere to hang/put my clothes. And the pub guests talked just outside my room occasionally during the night--was not too bad as the pub closes at 10pm.

Warm and friendly inn

Our was ideal for 4 day stay. The room was clean and large enough for the kids on the sofa and my wife and I in the master. There was plenty of parking. The Pub is nice and the service for breakfast, lunch and dinner was very nice. Everyone was super friendly.

Amazing highly recommend

Fantastic room, beautiful food, great service, just the ac and shower heater had a mind of its own, but will be back again definitely.

10/10 Exceptional

Very good

First night there was a lot of noise from busy road and bar below (although it was mainly our wedding crew) but when we asked to move the 2 nd night they were VERY obliging and that room (8) was amazing. Food very good. (Dinner and breakfast) staff very friendly and all pleasant.

Food was fantastic, real home cooked food, service was great, staff great, lovely old fire place, very welcoming. The bed very comfortable, the only thing that let it down was the internet was a bit hit and miss.

A little gem

Not your standard pub hotel. Needed a place to lay my head snd gound this little gem just by chance. Fairly new extension of griund floir rooms built around a courtyard was unexpected as was the rooms, clean, soacious and well maintained. Definatly going in to my thumbs up next time im working around here...
Garth, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

AWFUL! Do not stay here

My stay at this hotel was awful. I stayed here on business and had many problems. I stay in 70/80 hotels per year and have never had to complain like this. I was aware just before arrival that they weren’t offering Breakfast or any Evening Meals which was less than ideal in the location. However I had several other issues but to name a few: No milk available for tea or coffee on request Room freezing, no radiators in room and wall unit not on before arrival so I spent 4 hrs having to wear my coat in my room. I left the heater on over night on 28 degrees to get it warm. Exit/Fire Safety lights in room. Large green lights that lit up the room all night so I was unable to sleep. I have never seen this before in any hotel so this needs to be corrected. On checkout the lady I spoke to couldn’t have cared less and didn’t take any of my feedback on board. Hotels.com shouldn’t currently be advertising this hotel as it is not fit for purpose with all the renovations taking place.
