Great location

The staff were very helpful. The location was perfect. The room by the courtyard garden was quite cold for a stay in January, the bed had a thin fleece blanket over the duvet, but could do with something thicker for January. Breakfast had a brilliant selection, and the staff were very attentive.

Great location for town centre, comfortable night.

Only offered Continental breakfast when pictures on website showed a cooked one, I thought would be available. But was a phenomenal set up anyway with loads of choice. Room was clean, excellent shower facilities & great nights sleep. Room a little small so crowded & difficulty setting up my Laptop easily for working.

Good for walking into town centre. Within a good area for evening dining too - highly recommend Middletons. Car park secure but if you've got a wide car you might have trouble getting through the gateway. Afternoon tea is excellent and continental breakfast is very well stocked.

Fab location, friendly staff and great stay.

Really lovely welcome from the owner who showed me to the room. Clean hotel in a great location to the centre of the city. Full of character. Great value for a quick stop over. Lovely fluffy towels and room amenities. Continental breakfast served with a friendly greeting, great service all round. Definitely one I will return too.

We loved our visit to the Colchester Boutique Hotel. It's very close to the centre of town where there are lots of places to get food and drink and do a little sightseeing. The hotel has a quirky charm with several communal areas decorated nicely with art and antiques. We particularly liked the vintage cigarette machine. Continental breakfast was lovely with lots of options: pastries, pancakes, cereal, fruit, meat and cheese plus an added bonus of scrambled eggs made to order. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. I'm sure one gentleman never left the place as he was always around and ready to answer questions and checking if we needed anything. If we visit Colchester again we'll definitely stay at the Boutique Hotel.

An intriguing hotel in the town center. The hotel is full of character with rooms situated over two buildings, the main building and an out building via a seated garden area. I had a very comfortable stay in a cosy room. The General Manager, Daniel made me feel very welcome on check in and the staff are all friendly and very helpful. I was in the Bar and mentioned that my room was a bit chilly and by the time I returned a portable heater had been delivered. If you are looking for somewhere that provides comfort, a relaxed atmosphere with breakfast included and great service then this hotel is perfect. The price is nice too!
