"I am a regular guest of the Holiday Inn, Abbots Lane, Colchester and have always found the hotel both inviting and comfortable. The staff are excellent and always friendly and helpful. I’ve dined in the restaurant on many occasions and the meals have all been excellent with a wide variety of menu choices. I would highly recommend a stay here! "

"Very good stay. Convenient and easy."

"After a day of travel nice to stop at the end of the day. Checkin was quick and easy. Travelling from Australia,, surprised the room didn’t have a bar fridge ( I didn’t check if in room details- lesson for me). I had the impression there was a hotel carpark . The carpark is part of the main carpark that includes a mini shopping centre- mainly fast food outlets. The first 2 hours free, but then 5gbp. It was an extra cost I hadn’t realised. If you book directly with hotel this parking fee is absorbed in their pricing. The room when we first entered was stale -and the aircon was noisy during the night. I would not stay here again if in the area."

"Excellent and close pre flight hotel "
