Having had a poor experience several years ago, I decided to once more stay at the Rose and Crown. What a difference! My room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom modern and well appointed. Although close to a rail line, there is very low noise. The reception was friendly and welcoming. I didn’t have an evening meal, but the breakfast - included because I booked direct through Best Weztern - was delicious. Good quality food and properly cooked to order. The scrambled eggs were cooked to perfection, soft and delicious. I enjoyed my stay, and will stay here again when I next visit. Great turnaround Best Western!

Beautiful building, great service from all staff but special mention for Sian who made sure I got my taxi safely.

The Rose and crown is a very historic hotel at the bottom of East Hill in Colchester, right in between two road junctions and very close to the railway. Although the location is good for walking up into the town, it is the slightly scruffy end of town and The road noise begins at 5 o’clock in the morning. With the historic aspect comes a number of features such as wonky floors, low ceilings with exposed beams, and windows which letting in a lot of the noise. In room 205, The shower and bath were powerful And warm that there was quite a bit of dust in the corners of the room, especially along the edge of the carpet, and along the wooden carving features of the Four poster bed. I could also hear the tv of room 204 next door. Luckily, the staff were extremely friendly, professional and attentive. Particular shout out to Roshne in breakfast the next morning Who was polite, helpful, and gave service with a smile. The receptionist staff were also friendly.
