Hotels With breakfast in Essex, United Kingdom

We booked a compact double at an extremely good price so the room was small as expected but it had everything we needed. The breakfasts were excellent and i loved that they served til 10am. I loved the vibrant quirky look of the public areas. Our room overlooked the estuary and was at the end of the corridor. Lovely and warm and relatively quiet My only gripe were the loud fan in the ensuite and the inability to have a softer night light. The nascerator toilet was also very loud . For the money we were delughted with the service , location and amrnities

The hotel is right next to the University of Essex, making it very convenient to get to the school. The rooms are spacious with balconies and great views. However, the bathroom facilities are a bit basic; the shower curtain is narrow, barely covering the entire shower area, so water splashes everywhere. Public transportation is inconvenient; it's a 10-minute walk to the bus stop.

This hotel is located central to Southend-on-Sea, just s short walk for both the beach and the town centre. The room was a good size, clean & comfortable with tea/coffee facilities.

The location and amenities are great, however it’s a bit confusing to have a dedicated hotel shuttle at a cost of £8 return. While there is a public transport (see attached image) within 4-5 minutes walk, even without basic pedestrian infrastructure, it’s easy to reach using Google maps. All that enables the private 3rd party to become successful for offering a paid airport shuttle service.

Great hotel with a lot of history to it, and as such a very nice place to stay at. Friendly and approachable staff. Unfortunately, I had booked two rooms without adequate facilities; one room did not have hot water and the other had a malfunctioning shower. Could have been bad luck, and I suspect the hotel management to be able to fix this issue.

Great location, parking eas a squeeze bit we managed to park both days. The room was lovely with a spacious bathroom, had aircon whoch was a treat for uk rooms but it was very noisy even on low. The bed was on the small size which meant my 6 ft 2 husband found it uncomfortable especially given that it was hot during our stay. The blackout window blind was helpful, but could have done with being a few millimeters wider to prevent the bright morning light from shining in. We didn't eat at the hotel but the menu looked great and we saw others eating as we entered and exited. We did have a few drinks (our non-alcoholic drink was more expensive than an alcoholic drink) which were on the expensive side, but again to be expected when you are in a hotel. All in all we would stay again if there was a room with a bigger bed.

My experience here at Harlow hotel was amazing the staff are incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming nothing isnt to much breakfast is incredible as the dinner is to I will definitely recommend the hotel to friends family

Nice room, very clean and great location. Just beware when booking there are pubs and bars opposite so not quiet but this did not affect us.

I booked a last minute night away with the children: afternoon tea followed by an overnight. The afternoon tea was delicious and I was really well catered for as a vegan diner. The Grand Hall was a beautiful setting for afternoon tea. The children also loved their food - the sandwiches were much simpler for the children and they got seconds based on how delicious they were. Our room was large and had a sofa bed and a cot bed. We enjoyed playing in the grounds including the play area, outdoor chess, boules, the scavenger hunt and the fitness trail. My son also loved playing football in the garden - he was excited that there were goals set up. We had dinner in The Fox Bar and had drinks and played cards in the Grand Hall afterwards. Breakfast the next morning was delicious. We were really excited to find newts in the pond. They would love to stay again. I would love to come for an overnight with my partner to experience it differently without the children.
