"Great staff"

I visited here late Monday evening after a stressful night and was warmly greeted by lovely lady called Nicola who was running the front desk. I've worked in hospitality and hotels for thirty years and really felt she is worth a mention. She couldn't do enough for us and I really wanted to say thank you. Shes a genuine credit to your organisation.

"Ok"

Handy for pub, garden centre and shops. Parking free. Welcome neutral. Room as expected but on the basic side with curtains and toiletries tea tray etc. Batteries gone in tv remote. Bed not as comfy as the adverts - pillow past its best. Not as quiet as expected from the road.

"great place to stay"

rooms were clean and comfortable staff were very helpful and breakfasts were excellent. Very good location close to a good vintage inn with good food. Shopping complex was just across from the hotel. My wife considers this hotel to one of the best we have stayed in.

"Staying for funeral."

I stayed here for a funeral so the circumstances were not great. Hotel is very clean and adhering to covid measures. Staff were helpful. The lady doing breakfast both mornings was lovely, sensitive to our needs and she really couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you.

"Convenient place to stay"

Visited for a few nights whilst clearing my parents house nearby. As expected, comfy beds, clean, with friendly staff. The breakfast area was fine, even with new restrictions, food was hot and arrived promptly. There are plenty of places to eat out for an evening meal which are close by. Good value, convenient hotel

Hotel description Bag some bargains at the Premier Inn Hotel Braintree Freeport Village - peacefully situated just over half a mile from Freeport Designer Village. We're the same distance from the Freeport Train Station with fast links to Stansted Airport and Greater London. Business guests are also well placed here. Retail might be less on your mind though if you're on the guest list at wedding venues The Fennes, Gosfield Hall and Leez Priory. Or if you fancy history at Hedingham Castle or some outdoor fun at Great Notley Country Park. Whatever brings you to Braintree, enjoy all the comforts you'd expect including an onsite restaurant, a spacious room and a comfy bed.
