Liked: The breakfast is lovely and the beds are always very comfortable. Its a grand hotel in a great location by the park and castle and short walk to the centre of Colchester. There's a few different places to sit throughout the hotel including a couple of little bars there's also a terrace attached to the main bar. If real ales are your thing the Ale House at the other end of town is our favourite, its very friendly, and Favoloso is a great Italian specialising in seafood. We've yet to eat at the hotel but its on the list for our next trip as judging by the breakfast its going to be good.
Disliked: I suppose if I had to pick I'd say road noise, you wouldn't get this in every room. You don't hear it out on the terrace and its not intrusive with the windows shut nor is the road busy at night, but during the day if you are particularly sensitive which I am you may hear it in the front of the hotel but it didn't distract for long.
