My wife and I stayed at this family-run hotel for two nights (Friday and Saturday nights).We enjoyed a very generous and tasty breakfast. All the staff we met, on Reception and in the Restaurant, were very friendly. Despite the fact that the hotel is located in the centre of the town and that music is played in the ground floor bar till midnight on Friday and Saturday nights our room was very quiet. The free Wi-Fi worked very well.
South Woodham Ferrers is very well placed to explore the countryside, the City of Southend-on-Sea and towns and villages nearby.

I visited as I was visiting family - Woodham Ferrers has lots of facilities - such as park (for walking the dog) -Manor farm for children's activities (brilliant - mainly all outside); leisure centre with swimming pool (not particularly big) and a very compact but with variety shopping centre.
This is a family area and does not support luxury/designer shops
Woodham Ferrers has good access to major road links and a train station to London.
The Indian restaurant in South Woodham Ferrers was excellent and very good value for money

I visited on a whim, just to get out of London. Compared to other places I've visited in the country this year, this has to be the best in lacking any soul and social interaction. As I was walking and no signs were present on the main roads, why do you need to follow the bike routes to get to the railway station? Why didn't anyone know where the station was? Also, there are some old radar stations on the hill. Yet again no signs as to how to get there and once there, no history about the place. This also was the case along the river. No signs. If there's anyone who comes out with flying colour during the trip, the prize goes to the the bus drivers of Essex. These were the only people who could put a sentence together.

I only used the hotel as a stop off point for a trip to Colchester but I thought Woodham Ferrers was a nice little town. The hotel was in a very central convenient location. It had all I wanted. I ate in the green king pub next to Asda. Was lovely, noisy but it was Saturday night so that’s standard.

I booked this hotel by mistake, I phoned instantly to ask for a refund and got told I had to speak to the manager who wouldn’t be back for 4 days I phoned again to be told I needed to contact booking. Com. I got in touch with booking. Com to be told it’s down to the hotel. I phoned again and then got told it was too late for a refund as it was over a week. 80 pound nicked! And I’ve never heard from them since even though I’ve phoned numerous times and email! Disgusting customer service
Not normally book a "Budget Hotel" but for the price this was exceptional.
Not tried the Breakfast as we had an early start.
Room was spotless and fresh. Super nice sleep.
In the booking was warned about the live music and limited parking, however
we managed to squeeze into the rear parking and watched telly to the early hours
so not to be bothered by the music and party below. Overall, marvellous.
Adequate facilities. No food served on premises the evening of my arrival but The Oaklands was happy for food to be brought in and would even supply plate and cutlery if requested. I enjoyed a good Chinese takeaway purchsed 2 minutes walk from the hotel.
Was able to park at the back of the hotel off road.
Plenty of tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
Great place, at first it doesn't look much but it's a lovely stay. Free parking nearby. Plenty of dining options within yards. The bar is really friendly and has Sports TV on a number of screens.

The hotel and our room was dated, but it was clean and comfortable which was enough for this stay. It's inexpensive to stay and you get what you pay for. If you don't mind dated decor, this is good value for money.
Clean & comfortable for a budget hotel. I just wanted somewhere cheap to sleep to visit family & go to Hyde Hall.
Moved car to a free car park very near hotel.
Decided not to stay for breakfast so can't comment.
Nothing to dislike really. The location was right next to several places to eat as the hotel does not serve bar food. Room was fine with everything you would expect. Cooked breakfast was great and staff lovely.
The location is good. Many restaurants nearby as well as an ASDA, The shopping center is quite attractive. The hotel offers a good breakfast and the bar is pleasant. Modern TV in the room
