“An opulent hotel in the heart of Colchester located in an elegant Georgian building. Rooms are spacious and traditionally dressed. Plump for a suite for some serious luxury including a glistening free-standing copper bath. The restaurant has been Michelin recommended. A superb stay.”

An elegant Georgian building in the centre of Colchester, this hotel makes a pretty good fist of being the town’s most upmarket place to stay, with spacious rooms and a restaurant serving excellent food.
