Colchester hotels

Colchester was Britain’s first city and the capital of Roman Britain, so consequently, it’s packed with history. If you’d like to get up close and personal with the town’s past, then choose accommodation like the George of Colchester, which is mere steps from the city museum. A historic but family-friendly hotel in the heart of the town, it has 500 years of history. Alternatively, the North Hill Hotel offers 24 beautiful rooms in its historic barn and cottage conversion in the centre of the town. With its wooden beams and cut-stone architecture, it’s packed full of charm. The Brook Red Lion Hotel is said to be the oldest building in Colchester, and the 15th century building with its four-poster beds and old wooden beams doesn’t disappoint.

History is great, but some prefer exercise, so a hotel pool can be essential. If you enjoy a daily swim, then check in to the Marks Tey Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western, which also has a fitness centre to accompany its large pool. The Essex Golf and Country Club also has an indoor pool to keep its golf-loving residents happy, alongside its full spa and fitness centre.
