Mersea Island Hotel Guide - Family Friendly Hotels in Mersea Island, Colchester

"Great, friendly staff throughout our stay, including team working tirelessly to keep breakfast buffet topped up. Good-sized and clean room."

"I had a really lovely stay at Holiday Inn IHG. I often choose Holiday Inn for my vacations because it is a perfect way to escape the busy life in London and truly relax. The room was very comfortable, clean, and well maintained, and the service throughout my stay was excellent. The receptionists were especially welcoming and helpful, a special mention to the receptionist at Holiday Inn Southend on Sea, who made check-in such a pleasant experience. The only small suggestion I would make is regarding breakfast time. It would be even better if breakfast could be extended until 11am, as when we’re on holiday we like to sleep in a bit later and take things slowly. Overall, I am very happy with my stay and would definitely recommend Holiday Inn for a relaxing getaway."

"Absolutely amazing hotel to stay in, the staff honestly are a credit to the company, I stayed alone for 3 nights back in Nov and had to return a week later with my family as my father was end of life, we arrived to the hotel at 2am with a toddler in tow and the staff were simply the loviest helping us park in a very full car park so we didn’t have to park off site, were very compassionate and said If they could help with anything they would. They saw my partner and little one walking around over the next few days and went and got little one a sand which and snacks. Breakfast was lovely a great array of choice and very helpful with ordering veggie sausages, plenty of choice of breads and hot drinks also. We didn’t eat off the main menu but it looked and sounded lovely from what we saw. I booked this hotel as I loved it the first stay so booked again, sadly they don’t do family rooms so that means 2 rooms being paid for but to be honest I’m happy to do that if it menas staying somewhere so nice x "

"The moment you step into the hotel you get the feeling of being in a 5 star hotel. A warm welcome from the reception team who gave us an efficient yet friendly check in. The room was amazing very clean and certainly above what we expected. Tea and coffee, lots of towels, comfy bed, giant tv, plenty of pillows. All the staff were excellent and the breakfast was very good. Could not fault anything. "

"Excellent staff, location , room, food , value ."

"The room was absolutely delightful. The shower room & bathroom were spotlessly clean, with plenty of hot water. The tea tray also had a couple of packets of biscuits. I liked the fact that I could switch the radiator off at night. The window also opened. The bed was comfortable. I will return."
