Have been staying here now for a few nights a week on business over last few weeks with a few more visits to come. Found hotel to be very good indeed. I read some of the comments prior to my visit and agree with the majority that the staff are very friendly and the food in the restaurant is well... More

I stayed here for one night with a friend after attending a wedding nearby. The service was great, the reception staff helpful and check-in was quick. The room itself was clean and comfortable but considering the rate it was a lot more basic than I would have expected. We actually paid a reduced rate due to the wedding but I... More

I stayed 4 nights. I booked a single but was upgraded to a double room when I checked in. The room was very basic but clean and adequate. The first night was quiet, but my room was on the first floor near reception and I could hear people coming and going at all hours. The staff were great-very helpful. The... More

Only stayed for the one night for business and had to leave the very next day. Friendly staff and modern looking inside. Would definitely recommend. Not much to do in Chelmsford though, but the room and hotel made it a very comfortable stay.

Found the hotel very comfortable, I had an exec room which had a massive bed and was spacious. The heating system let it down as it was rather noisey, after turning it off I had a great nights sleep. Breakfast was spot on. Dont let the AA 3 star put you off.

I stayed here recently with my husband for a romantic birthday weekend. We were given a free upgrade to a room on 2 levels which was absolutely amazing. There is so much space and unless you have a fear or heights we can highly recommend staying in these rooms. Not knowing the area very well, the receptionist, diana i think... More

I stayed here on a business trip to Chelmsford. As somewhere to sleep this was ok but little more. I stayed there during particularly cold weather and the thin duvet was completely inadequate. There were no extra blankets and I was completely dependent on the air conditioning unit. As is the case in most hotels, the unit would wake up... More

Briefly this is what I found. Building looks like an office. No clear directions to park. Had to go into the reception to find the entrance, which is through a barrier, which raises on approach, and then they give you a code to get out. Reception was once trendy, but now looks tired and dark. The receptionist seemed a bit... More

Stayed here on two seperate occasions and in different rooms. The rooms varied greatly. Room 358 on the uppermost floor was quiet with minimal noise from other guest rooms. It was pretty basic but certainly not at all bad for the price. However the wi- fi connection kept dropping out, which we did report to the front desk. On the... More

The room was fine, not cheap mind you. The bar and restaurant is very impersonal, the bar was looked after by waiters from restaurant, which meant waiting. I was away on business on valentines day the restaurant had a special menu although I was accommodated as a resident It felt like I was a hindrance
