It’s an ok stay for...

Liked: A good sized family room, easy to find and a yummy breakfast buffet.
Disliked: In the very small print you have to pay for parking.There are 2x Holiday Inns in Colchester, one has a pool and one doesn’t…this one is the one that doesn’t have a pool.

Very good

Liked: Lovely clean and modern hotel in a really convenient location for moving around the area. Great choice of hot and cold items for breakfast included in the price. Family room was a good size for the 3 of us. Plenty pillows on all beds to give you a choice. Lovely big walk in shower with body care products provided. Staff were really helpful, especially after a very long drive from Scotland and arriving quite late at night, they got us checked in and off to our room really quickly with minimal fuss.
Disliked: The bed was a bit firm for my liking but I've stayed with worse.
