Holiday Inn Colchester

Lovely friendly hotel - always stay here when visiting family in Colchester.  Great pool.  Lovely breakfast

The swimming pool appeared quite big, although we didn't get a chance to use it. Our room was fairly roomy for two people, but with our group of four, it felt a bit crowded. It's worth noting that if you have heavy luggage, you might want to avoid booking a room on the top floor (second floor), as there are no lifts available in this hotel. The bathroom provided only shampoo and body wash, so you might need to bring or purchase your own conditioner. The breakfast exceeded my expectations. Despite anticipating a traditional British offering, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety available, including English hot meals, a salad bar, a selection of cereals (there was Alpen!), milk alternatives (I particularly enjoyed the Oatly), and two coffee machines. Their breakfast was so impressive that I will definitely consider staying at this hotel again when I visit Colchester next time.

Friendly staff, quiet room👍

This hotel is a bus servuce hotel. Most , not i in this catogiry of travelker have money and ability tp nake tge accoubt right. The bus not cars.

Checked in later, member of staff on the front desk was quite unhelpful and blunt. The room still has stains all over the sideboards.
