Holiday Inn Colchester by IHG
Breakfast was varied and very good. Room was clean, but clean towels were missed couple of times. Parking was easy, but very busy at night.

Holiday Inn Express Braintree by IHG
A good overall stay for the price. Friendly staff. Rooms are very tired now with lots of deterioration on woodwork and in the bathroom. Two street lights constantly flashing outside.

St Nicholas Hotel
The hotel itself (hallways) is a bit like a travelodge but the room we stayed in, 911, was really clean and the bed was really comfy. It was quite warm though so not sure what it would be like in summer.
