"Poor sleep, won't be back."
Must be one of the worst nights sleeps I've had in a hotel. Pillows were advertised as soft, but felt more hard. 1 pillow would be too low, but 2 pillows would be too high. Even my friend who stayed in another room, said the same thing as me about the pillows and lack of sleep.
Breakfast was advertised as all you can eat buffet, but was made to order instead. 4 people were turned away from breakfast, as they hadn't pre-booked, even though me and my friend were the only people in the restaurant. Will definitely look for another rival hotel next year.

"Comfortable and clean room"
Standard Premier Inn family room, fairly quiet, comfortable and clean. Just 10-15 minutes from Colchester zoo. Lovely breakfast with plenty of choice.

"Positive would return"
Popped in last week for breakfast after thinking this place had closed, was served by Hayley she was rushed off her feet and they were clearly short staffed, despite this service was prompt. Me and my wife had a cooked breakfast the bacon was slightly rubbery like it’d had been sat for a little while but other than that there was no complaints and I will be returning!! Thank you Hayley deserve a raise!!

Hotel description
Whether you're a townie or a towie fan, there's plenty to see and do at Premier Inn Hotel Colchester Cowdray Avenue (A133). There are lots of charming towns and villages to explore, and we're just up the road from one of the gems of Essex, Colchester Castle, as well as some pristine beaches too.
Soak in the charm of the villages and small towns hidden away in this corner of England. Or dive into some serious history at Colchester Castle and Wivenhoe House. See the water buffalo at Colchester Zoo, and then come back to be fed and watered at our on-site Premier Inn restaurant, with a comfy bed awaiting you too.
