    Never having visited Braintree before, I was pleasantly surprised to find it interesting to walk round, spacious yet with shopping alleys to wander down, and with friendly service in pubs and shops. The only downside was what appeared to be a distinct shortage of places besides The White Hart to go for an evening meal.

    A pleasant, pedestrian friendly town centre offering plenty of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars. It has a fine Town Hall, library and museum telling of Braintree's past. A little way out of town is the Freeport Shopping Village and the town is conveniently placed to visit the neighbouring towns of Colchester and Chelmsford.

    Very friendly & accommodating staff.

    Very friendly & accommodating staff. Food fresh & good choice. Delicious cooked breakfast - very good value. Rooms accessed via stairs - no lift - difficult for guests with mobility problems. We are booking another stay end of November to visit the Christmas Market & enjoy the facilities again.

    Braintree town has a good selection of cafe’s and pubs but is sadly lacking in retail outlets and late night entertainment. It’s a good central position for exploring the area but you’ll definitely need a car because the local bus service isn’t very regular,

    I actually come from Braintree so I know it well.

    I actually come from Braintree so I know it well. Theres not many good shops in the town centre anymore but theres a retail area called the Braintree Village which is worth a visit and they have lots of shops there. There is a wonderful eatery place called Toast in the town centre which I can recommend though. They make yummy toasted sandwiches and fancy stuff.

    My family and I had a great experience at the Holiday Inn Express in Braintree. To begin with, the staff at the front desk and in the breakfast area was exceptional: very professional, kind and helpful. The rooms were very modern and clean. And the breakfast was excellent with quite a variety of breakfast foods and beverages. Great way to start our day! I would highly recommend the Holiday Inn Express to anyone visiting the Braintree area.

    The room was lovely. The staff were exceptional, very attentive, polite and personable. We stayed because the hotel had been recommended by the Wedding venue, it was closest to where we needed to be and its a lovely little village.
