Brentwood

Newly refurbished and great location, right next to the train station

ok for a short stay over, very well placed for a quick access to the train station

Great hotel, air con in the rooms, food was good, parking could have been better for large vans.

We had two stints at this hotel over the course of a couple of weeks, in different rooms. First, we stayed in one of the Premier Plus rooms, which was very spacious and had a small fridge in the room so we could store a few useful things like milk and soft drinks. The internet connection was strong and fairly fast which was very useful as I was working remotely. The bathroom was comfortable with good water temperature and pressure. Our second room was very large and comfortable, not a premier room but lovely nonetheless. However, the internet connection (both basic and premium) was almost completely out of range, making it impossible to work or really do anything on our laptops (room 910 if management is reading this). In both rooms, the bed was very comfortable as was the room temperature. The bathrooms are mostly well-equipped although a toilet brush would be useful. We didn't get a chance to eat in the restaurant but the menu looked great. The staff are really fantastic, going above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable, and the location is excellent, just across the road from an Elizabeth line station directly into and across London.

Everything was fine but beware of one thing!! The shower door is left sticking at right angles into the small bathroom so the mat can be draped out of the cubicle. I nearly walked into it because it was clear glass. The hotel is opposite the station which is on the Elizabeth Line.

Nice hotel, meets all of our needs. Clean and spacious rooms. Nice and firm mattresses, friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location across from the train station. Easy connection from and to Southend Airport and London. The prices for hotel rooms are good value.
