Beware if you are making a group booking. I received no written confirmation from the hotel about my booking. They told me about the deadline for making changes to room bookings. They did not tell me there was a deadline for changing the numbers for dinner. When I phoned to alter the numbers for dinner, I got through to the... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night prior to a cruise which departed from Harwich. First impressions were of a small, clean and tidy hotel. The lady that checked us in seemed very harassed and spent a lot of time, during check-in and later in the bar, sighing loudly! At first I found this somewhat amusing but after a... more

For the price (£75 p/n including breakfast) I cannot fault this hotel. It is good for both leisure and business stays. It is in an old building with character, however the rooms are a good size, clean, modern, and well equipped. The bed was very comfortable and the LCD TV a welcome addition. Also free WiFi internet is available throughout... more

We stayed three nights in a double room on a leisure break. This hotel looked startlingly small when we arrived. After we'd dragged our wheely cases across the gravel from the car park to the front door (quite exhausting), we were warmly welcomed. Our room, number 1, cost a bit extra but was a very good size and clean and... more

First visit to the area. We stayed in family room #115. Reasonably priced considering our American dollar is so weak. Louise at the front desk/reception made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in the hotel. We enjoyed good service and food in the dining area. Our bedroom was clean and comfortable. Our bathroom had hairdryer, soap, shampoo and... more

I chose the Gathouse hotel for a business trip as it offered free wifi access. Both of the rooms that I have stayed in have been oversized, clean and comfortable. The first room that I was given had disabled access and I have to say it was not a patch on the room 2 upstairs which was very nice. The... more

Small hotel in the outskirts of town. Reception and common rooms have a warm atmosphere and comfortable furniture. My room was very well maintained with a good bed and a good chair which needed cleaning. The appearance could be improved by decorating the walls with more pictures or prints. Flat screen TV with regular British channels only. Bathroom was very... more

When we drove up, I didn't expect much because of the area it was located - there was nothing fundamentally WRONG with it, it just didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary. However, once we stepped inside, all doubts were banished. Charming decor, a small but intimate bar and dining area, lovely staff and clean, fresh and stately-home inspired... more
