"Loved how close it was to the train station. Staff were very friendly, and pub fare was delicious (except sticky toffee pudding). Great value."

"I had a comfortable overnight stay before my flight to France. I had dinner in the restaurant which was nice, also a good breakfast except for the scrambled eggs !"

"I’ve stayed at The Essex Golf & Country Club several times before and have always had a pleasant experience, which is why this visit was so disappointing. Unfortunately, the room did not meet the usual standards I’ve come to expect. The bed hadn’t been made properly, which immediately gave a poor first impression, and the bath drain was extremely slow, making it frustrating to use. It’s a shame because I’ve enjoyed my previous stays here, but this time the lack of attention to detail really let things down. I hope this was just a one-off, as I would like to return in the future, but improvements definitely need to be made to maintain the quality guests expect"

"Excellent service, thank you."

"Excellent value for money & ideal location for Stansted airport."

"Lovely hotel and location if transiting at Stansted. The shuttle bus is timely and easy to use but will cost you £4 each way"

"Terrible room and the shower was awful. Needs refurbishing."

"Good free parking. Excellent breakfast good choice and nice and hot. Air conditioning and heating not working in room an electric heater provided but I was not informed of this by hotel staff. The room was clean and serviced daily. "

"Everything was great! Nicely decorated and well equipped room. Friendly staff, great evening meal and sunny garden for lunch. Perfect stay!"
