The Tower HotelMain Road, Dovercourt, Harwich, CO12 3PJ (Show map)
Very good,
Score from 164 reviews
“ Nice location. Nicely updated.friendly staff. Would highly recommend. ”
M.,
Tulsa, Ok
Built in 1885, in the Italian style, as a private residence, the main feature of this imposing building is the attractive tower at its northeast corner. It has a wealth of ornamental ceilings, and impressive architectural features. It is not surprising to find this is a classified Grade II-Listed Building. Set in its own pleasant leafy grounds, The Tower Hotel retains an air of bygone elegance. However, in line with its admirable adaptation to its new life as a hotel, it has wide, easy access to the main road at either end of its sweeping drive. Country house: 13 rooms The most recent booking for this hotel was made on May 22 at 17:33 from United Kingdom.

It was warm, welcoming all the staff were very good and recognised us from previous stays at the hotel. The food and wines were good as we have come to expect. There was nothing at all that we didn't like.

Loved the features of the building, the staff were on hand and friendly. Had a peaceful night's sleep, comfortable bed and not rushed in anyway for meals. Was deceived on the perception of what the rooms would look like in comparison to the websites photo's. I assumed all the rooms looked luxurious as shown also in brochure, however ours (room 4) was rather basic.

Very nice rooms, tall ceilings, friendly staff. I was very disappointed that before 7:45 I had to have the express breakfast and was not able to have the normal breakfasts. I think the normal breakfasts should be available from 7am which is a perfectly normal time to be having breakfast, especially if you have to go to work or catch the ferry to Holland. In this case the express breakfast basically consisted of toast and jam, rather basic, and not what I expected from what appeared to me to be a luxury hotel. I was expecting, and looking forward to, a buffet style with various breads, pastries, fruit salad, etc, as well as the cooked breakfast.

The Tower Hotel is set inside an old Italian style 1885 built house. A very romantic setting within the town of Harwich. The rooms are modified for hotel accommodation, but the ambiance is good and the staircases in the Lobby area very grand. The people were friendly, the room comfortable and the price reasonable. It is a very short walk to the town, where there are a variety of shops.

We have stayed there before and enjoyed our stay very much no so this time This time we felt the room we were given was a bit cramped and we were a little disappointed there was only a shower no bath. We felt that we would have had more room has we gone to the premier inn

The location is excellent for the ferry port. Grand entry! The room was too warm and the free WiFi did not make it into our room at the back of the building so we had to sit in the lounge for reception.
