pleasant stay with minor drawbacks
The reception staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel welcomed right away. The room was equipped with everything we needed, providing a comfortable experience throughout our stay.
While the hotel is conveniently located, parking was limited and we nearly missed out on the last space available.

Room 505 was well-appointed and comfortable, offering a decent size for a short stay, though facing the high street led to some noise disturbances. Room 102 was gratifying in comfort, but the lack of air conditioning was disappointing during warmer nights. The breakfast experience was highlighted by its delicious offerings, with prime steaks as a standout.

I had a lovely stay at The George. The hotel has a charming old-world vibe, which I really appreciated. My room was spacious with a comfy bed and a nice shower. I particularly enjoyed the breakfast. it had a great variety and everything tasted fresh. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making sure I had everything I needed. there were a few hiccups. The parking information wasn't very clear, which left me searching for a spot initially. I had minor cleanliness issues in the bathroom. I noticed a few stray hairs which should have been cleaned up. On my last morning, I had a surprise when I returned to my room and found the cleaner had assumed I checked out early and stripped the bed. While she was apologetic, it left me feeling rushed. Some better communication about room occupancy might help prevent that in the future.

The hotel was a perfect spot for our family getaway with our three dogs! The location on High Street was a big plus, and we had a blast at the Colchester Golf Club, which made our stay even more enjoyable.
In my wife’s opinion, a designated dog walking area would have been great for families with pets.

Great location and comfy beds!
Had a good time at this spot! Location was perfect for exploring the city. The bed was super comfy, really helped for a good night's sleep. A little dated, though, some areas could use a facelift. Plus, the parking was a bit tricky to navigate. Enjoyed the bar area for a nightcap too.

I had a pleasant stay at The George. The refurbishment has transformed the atmosphere, making it welcoming and modern. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, particularly in the newly designed dining area. The food was a highlight, especially the well-prepared lamb rump and the outstanding chocolate fondant. The character of the historic building truly shines through, providing a unique dining experience.
Lack of cleanliness in some areas.
