"Cracking place to stay in Wivenhoe"

9.0

Great hotel and bar with a really good live band on Saturday night, which we thoroughly enjoyed. There was a good selection of beers, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the complimentary parking space was ideal, as parking can be difficult in Wivenhoe. I'd definitely recommend staying here if you're visiting the area.

"Ideal location, great rom, loved it!"

10.0

Spotlessly clean, very comfortable, well equipped, good bathroom. Ample tea/ coffee making facilities. Bottled water, & mini toiletries. Great attention to detail

The only thing to be aware of, is that there are very steep, narrow stairs to the room. Probably would not be suitable for anyone with very reduced mobility. BEI g elderly, I found it only just manageable with help from my grandson. No clear directions on how to check out. Just posted keys through pub door
