"Fantastic location right on the seafront. Easy parking, friendly staff. Restaurant is pleasant, food is average but reasonably priced. Rooms are comfortable- furniture is slightly tired.
Tip - sea view rooms have a wonderful view "
"De accommodatie is eenvoudig en verouderd en erg warm. Ontbijt wordt in het restaurant geserveerd er naast en is niet heel uitgebreid, weinig keus, pancakes waren koud.
De accomodatienaam klopt niet en het adres wat er bij staat ook niet, dit gaat om een andere accomodatie van Premier Inn, dit is verwarrend!! "
"Wish they had more rooms with bigger beds Also wished they'd have had face towels. Overall great property. Staff were absolutely wonderful. Would definitely stay again while in Clacton. "

10/10 Excellent
"Speedy check-in.
Check in first before you pay to park & as long as they take your email it is free.
Comfy beds, clean room, decent toilet rolls, dove body wash & a great cooked breakfast. WiFi a bit sketchy & carpet in corridors has seen better days. That said didn’t put us of at all, would recommend & would definitely stay again."
"We stayed two nights for the 2025 Clacton airshow. The hotel has good (free for guests) parking and is about a 30 minute walk to Clacton pier. Alternatively buses run along the front. We stayed in room 20 which had a Sea view on the second floor (note there are no lifts). The room was clean and tidy with cofee and tea making facilities and a TV (no fridge), also free (good) WI-FI. The staff in the hotel were very friendly and the bar was nice, well stocked and amply staffed. The bar area was nice to relax in with tables and stools and comfy chairs and setees. The restaurant was nice (best to book on arrival as it does get filled up quickly). We eat both evenings and the restaurant manager "Joshua" was very polite and attentive. Food was good and reasonably priced (note there is a discretionary12.5% service charge). We also had breakfast which was nice. I had full English but eggs and kippers plus a continental selection are available. We would definately stay there again."
"Comfortable spacious rooms with large double bed. Everything for an overnight stay, coffee on the terrace, good evening meal in the restaurant and a lovely pre-breakfast swim in quite a large swimming pool with sauna and jacuzzi available.
Overall an enjoyable and restful stay with friendly staff.."
"Room was clean, tidy, functional and had sufficient features. The balcony was a great addition. The view over the town was super. It overlooks the street so accept there will be town noise on a Friday./Saturday night. Does mean it is superbly situated for city exploits.
Only negative was parking. It was a busy weekend and the assigned car-park had only once space."
"Didn’t expect too much as was overnight stay for early ferry trip for family of 6 with little research. Staff were welcoming and hotel modern and room very clean. They got up extra early to give us continental breakfast. Great location, nice bar , recommended! Far exceeded our expectations Thankyou."
"I am a regular guest of the Holiday Inn, Abbots Lane, Colchester and have always found the hotel both inviting and comfortable. The staff are excellent and always friendly and helpful. I’ve dined in the restaurant on many occasions and the meals have all been excellent with a wide variety of menu choices. I would highly recommend a stay here! "
