Arrived for breakfast this morning to find that no one was there and it was after 7am. I have stayed before and normally itâs really good but there was no one at all in the restaurant bar area , curtains drawn. If a service is offered please make sure that staff are there as itâs not the first time.
The Kings Arms in Coggeshall was lovely - as were the staff. Breakfast was very good in the morning. Note that there is significant traffic noise from the busy main road that it is on.
The rooms above the pub face an extremely busy main road with no sound proofing. We were awake for most of the night with the constant traffic noise. Breakfast stops being served at 8.50am which we were not told about at check-in. We arrived at 9am and no exception was made even though someone received their breakfast at 9.15am
Welcoming. Accommodated early check in . Very good breakfast.
Room clean. Beds comfortable.
Bathroom a little dated. Shower seemed to work back to front but water was hot.
Free parking. Bus stop directly outside to get into Colchester.
Our Family Stayed for 3 nights! What a pleasure to stay somewhere so friendly and accommodating! Family room was ideal for us and our 2 young boys! There were toys available to keep them busy whilst we got settled in, rooms were clean and a lot of things were considered for comfort and practicality! We appreciated how laid back everything was, there was lots of space for the kids to move around and their play/sandpit area was a massive hit! Staff were so friendly and happy to help! There was lots of choice at breakfast and standard of ingredients and meals overall was fantastic! :) will be staying again! And would recommend for other families! :)
Such a nice little gem outside of London as a stop if youâre travelling through or a base if youâre exploring the eastern countryside.
The food was particularly delicious and the generous portion sizes will not leave anyone disappointed.
We endeavour to return :)
As the hotel location information (map and local access info) was about the King's Arms in Colchester town on the Hotels.com website, I initially went there where I was told that I was at a wrong King's Arms and that they did not have any rooms. The King's Arms I had booked turned out to be the one 40-minute bus ride away from Colchester town. The correct King's Arms was a nice place to stay offering great food. My room was fine in size and very clean but adjusting the shower was a little tricky and there was nowhere to hang/put my clothes. And the pub guests talked just outside my room occasionally during the night--was not too bad as the pub closes at 10pm.
