GreyFriars, hotel in Colchester

Situated in Colchester, 200 metres from Colchester Castle, this AA rated property features a garden. Located around 6 km from Colchester Zoo, the hotel is also 11 km away from Flatford.

Everything. We’ve stayed before and it is still as good as our first visit. From our initial welcome to our parting goodbye everything was exceptional. After a long and arduous day we just needed to unwind and ‘lollop.’ We did not want to go out and decided on eating in our room. Service was impeccable and the food was exceptional; the best burger and thrice cooked chips ever. This is not my normal choice of food but I just fancied something ‘naughty’ and this fitted the bill; yes, I would order it again and again and again!

    Was upgraded to a superior room with balcony which was a lovely treat. The room was comfortable with good views. A ceiling fan and cooler unit were also in the room which was great for a hot summers day. A full choice at breakfast and lots of places to sit and relax around the hotel. A nice ambience overall and would stay again.

    Beautiful shepards hut, very well equipped. Heather went the extra mile to help us celebrate our honeymoon. Perfect spot for relaxing and the hot tub is lovely. Great views across the fields at the back and doesn't feel overlooked at all. Ducks are just the cutest and really made our stay special. The hut is fab and even though its naturally a small space everything is so well thought out. We loved it!
