Cbh County Hotel

Reception staff very friendly and helpful. When I tried to check in the staff didn’t have my name but only my friends even though I was the one that paid for the room? Bar food was nice enough but quite expensive over £18 for 1 panini, 1 chips, soft drink & a tea! Room was clean and tidy and very quiet but unfortunately didn’t have the best sleep as bed was really uncomfortable, springs coming through the mattress and really lumpy hard pillows also which was a shame! Stayed there as music event was on at the Colchester Park and looked like it was the nearest hotel to it but walking there was a bit tricky as had to go across a main road and through a dodgy alleyway behind an industrial building which wasn’t signposted after the event had to walk the long way around through the town to get back to the hotel.

The suite we ha was good. The air conditioning was like an Asthmatic blowing on you. If you want to have a shower then you have to put ut on at least 15 minutes before you get in it. To get luke warm water. Our room was right above the wedding venue so got not much sleep. The room cost £200 a night and no breakfast included. Not worth the money.

if you stay at this hotel make sure you stay on the top floor as I was kept awake by the floorboards creaking every time someone in the room above walked on them. I could also hear someone snoring next door through the very thin walls. The hotel needs a make over as it is so old & tired looking & bathroom wasn't very clean. £91 for a single room to be kept awake all night is not what I expected. The location is good & service given by Chris at breakfast was excellent

Receptionist was excellent but the hotel had an overwhelming odour of old sea food. Old very creaky floors meant that sleep was difficult as the noise from elsewhere was constant. Very clean though although rooms are a bit tired.

Had a fantastic nights stay at the country hotel room was great bed very comfy and room was spotless hotel staff very helpful would recommend this hotel to all .short walk to town overall will be staying here agsin when im in chelmsford .

Beyond the reception, bar and restaurant this hotel is awful. The room I had was incredibly tired, I would put this at a poor 2 star rating. Chelmsford is not blessed with hotels but I would never stay here again. Insufficient hot water, no soundproofing between floors or between the room ad corridor (the inch gap below the door doesn’t help that). Every time the room above moved you could hear them. I am sure they will put some response saying some rooms are due for upgrading or some such but the room i had is not fit to be sold. I stay in a lot of hotels and this was the worst i have stayed in for a while.

Charming little hotel, friendly staff, rooms was cute and clean, no issues to report.

Good central location, modern facilities in the room including smart TV. Room quiet even though there was a Christmas party downstairs. Would definitely stay there again if I needed to stay in Chelmsford. Close to railway station so I didn't drive but there is car parking available.

A very warm welcome from the hotel - reception staff amazing! Hotel room was booked due to dinner/disco event - food fantastic and a great night! Sadly the room itself was a little tired but clean and very comfortable bed. Annoyed at lack of hot water in shower and having to "run" the water for approx 10 mins before tepid...However, the hotel staff noted my issue and agreed to investigate. Very accommodating.
