Beautiful old city.
Beautiful old city. Great walking paths along river,Castle park and gardens are beautiful and very well cared for. The castle is a great place to get a overview of the long history from Roman, Saxon, Norman and through to modern times. Very interactive and great for kids too.
Easy city center to walk around and explore.
Recommend Hollytree museum (toy and doll collection!) and Headgate theatre to catch a local production.

Very historic, being the oldest recorded town in Britain.
Very historic, being the oldest recorded town in Britain. Some very beautiful old buildings. Safe. Great choice of restaurants. Easy to get around, but parking can be a problem in the centre if you don't get there early!

We were visiting family but went to the Mercury Theatre to see Spamalot. The theatre was excellent. We were sent tickets for the pay and display car park @ reduced price. 3 course dinner before the show and the well priced tickets in seats that were comfortable with a lot of leg room. Terrific show. Theatre was by the Roman wall and entrance gate.
Colchester has lovely parks, Castle and top class Zoo. Lots to do and see.

Really disappointed - supposed to be England's oldest town.. Took a long time to find the 'old town' parts and even so, I've seen better. A bit of a party place, found two (!) nice bars/pubs, but that was all.

There is a lot to see The Castle is very interesting and the little side streets are lovely to wander around If you want a nice proper cup of tea and a nice lunch at a reasonable cost try Small Talk in Eld Lane and evening meal try Il Padrino very good there is an old deconsecrated church with an indoor market the building is grade one listed and worth a visit Mersea Island is nice to visit with its beach huts and boat houses

I was visiting my niece who is attending the University of Essex, and my visit was short, so didn't get to see as much of the area as I would have liked. It was a easy trip from train station to the University by bus. Also from bus to the main shopping area/dining area in Colchester. Would come back to spend a bit more time to see more local historical sites.
“Staff were great, friendly and accommodating. Rooms were spotless and breakfast was excellent. I also had dinner in the hotel and it was great. Everything was great, will definitely be using this chain in future.”
“Very friendly and helpful staff
Felt like home from home
Great location for the town and facilities
comfy bed
excellent pressure of water in the shower
They got food in to suit my special diet.”
“Decent sized bedrooms, slightly faded grandeur but overall good, space is the ultimate luxury not modernity. The main hotel for people visiting Colchester and the Garrison”
