Colchester Boutique Hotel

Excellent location, unbelievably warm and professional service/guest approach. Lovely rooms, comfortable bed, also great breakfast choice and personalised service. Very cosy lounge bar open Wednesday-Sunday evenings. My home away from home ( West Australia ). Vivien.

We visited today with a luxury afternoon tea voucher, and enjoyed the best afternoon tea that we've ever had!
We sat in the lovely bay window and watched the World go by whilst eating.
Nothing was too much trouble.
It was well presented, freshly prepared, with so much choice.
We can't fault the welcome and hospitality that we received and will definitely return in the future.
We highly recommend the food, ambience and friendly hosts.
Thank you

Excellent service high tea was delicious. Surprised how many people were having afternoon tea, proof of its popularity.

From the first booking phone call, till being shown out of the door, after a delicious afternoon tea experience, couldn’t have been catered for any better. The service from Daniel was warm, courteous, and attentive. Quality ingredients in the generous sandwich fillings, with exquisite sweet treats to follow.

I had a lovely stay at the Colchester Boutique Hotel! The location is perfect — right in the heart of town, close to everything. The hotel has so much charm and character, and each room is unique and welcoming.
The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. My room was spotless, stylish, and very comfortable, with nice little touches like bottled water and great coffee. Breakfast was fresh, delicious, and the perfect start to the day.
Overall, a beautiful hotel with a great atmosphere and wonderful service. I’d definitely stay here again next time I’m in Colchester!

Nice friendly place to stay with excellent value for the city center

The people working there were the best part of the stay. The room was hot and without temperature control, other than opening a window. Since the windows easily accessible from outside in this single room, it didn't feel safe to leave open while sleeping. No working additional lock on door, including a security bar. The bathroom was nice with a shower that actually kept the water in it rather than all over the floor, unlike most places in the UK. However, light over the sink could be improved.
The room was small and I will rethink booking a twin bed in future.
Parking is available for free, but access requires some skill as the driveway is VERY narrow, requiring mirrors to be pulled in.
The location is good.

Excellent small hotel. Very attentive staff. Updated bathroom. Vintage features. Easy walking distance to High Street and City Centre.

Short walk to town centre and onsite parking. Room and ensuite clean and comfortable. Air conditioning and radiator in room. Staff all helpful and friendly. Only downside is the room was at the front of the hotel so very noisy from traffic and pedestrians. The property is listed so has single glazed windows. Very good choice for continental breakfast with plenty of fresh fruit etc. Had a fantastic meal in the attached Indian restaurant. We would stay here again but would ask for a room at the back of the hotel which would hopefully be quieter.

Had difficulty finding a central hotel that was not too noisy at night. This one proved wonderfully quiet and discretely positioned with handy parking in the centre of town (provided you are a confident driver for the narrow entrance, and don’t come up the bus lane by mistake!).
Friendly, helpful staff and comfortable, clean facilities with plenty of character.

The room and the food and it’s woz a safe place

We went for afternoon tea and had a wonderful experience. Staff were very friendly and attentive, and the food was fresh and delicious. Hotel appeared clean and tidy throughout.

What an amazing weaken the staff team are so friendly and approachable excellent interpersonal skills, spent some excellent time on the outdoor sun area drinking beer and chilling before the concert near by the chef came out to us and prepared a damn fine meal which was not on the menu but a request from us and he was brilliant , this just showed me that the big corporate hotels have a lot to learn form little gold nuggets like the boutique Hotel will be back again and looking forward to it

Perfect friendly hotel! The staff were amazing, especially Danny the General Manager and also Daniella from the restaurant. The hotel is small but has everything one would need. The food was outstanding - delicious Indian cuisine - compliments to the chef!
Lovely outdoor space. Couldn’t fault the place and will definitely stay here again!
