Stansted Airport & Nearby
Apart from the Radisson I've stayed in all the main hotels located around the airport it has said this really is the best it's about 250m from the airport, very big hotel lounge/dining area and a very nice breakfast if you can catch a deal certainly stay here
The Harlow Hotel by Accor

The Harlow Hotel by Accor

3.7/519 Reviews
From the moment I arrived I was given the VIP treatment. All the staff were helpful from helping me with the correct car parking procedure as I was running late. The meal was an outstanding five course which deserved a Michelin Star, at an unbelievably competitive price. I should have photographed at least the main course, starter & desert. Very sorry. The function room when I think about it now, was a bit on the bland side but wasn’t noticeable on the day due to the great company I was with and the wonderful band that entertained us. The restaurant area was more cosy and intimate, so ignore the bland function room. The whole hotel was immaculate and spacious with large rooms and plenty of car parking spaces. Wishing people a nice stay like myself.
Holiday Inn Express Braintree

Holiday Inn Express Braintree

4.2/5119 Reviews
We hadn't planned to stay here but I had booked us in at the Stansted Holiday Inn Express on the wrong night so Chrissy at Stansted kindly found us a room for the night at Braintree as we had a early flight the next day. The staff on check in who also cooked and served our food and drink were absolutely brilliant. This hotel seems to have been left behind a bit with any refit as it is very tired and dated however the amazing staff made up for it hence the 4 stars. We'd tried the Toby carvery but they weren't taking walkins probably due to being so busy so we headed back to the hotel to see what they could rustle up for us. Although the menu was extremely limited as quite a lot of items were unavailable (not sure why?) We had spicy wings and soup to start so tasty and wonderfully presented. Followed by a shared toastie and then 2 fab puddings. Full bellies and v.happy thankyou. We were up and about before breakfast but the chap said he would happily let us have a take away coffee and any cold items to take with us as they were complimentary anyway. Overall a good stay.

First thing I noticed was the excellent friendly service at the front counter. This service continued at breakfast the next morning, which was very nice - it was a menu-style breakfast where you order a breakfast you would like. Breakfast with salmon had a small supplement. The room was mostly okay, although there were some stains on the bedsheet. Inclusion of earplugs was a nice touch as it is on the main road - I happen to like the city noise, but ended up using them to block out the noise of the fan (there is no air conditioning). The bathroom had nice toiletries although we noticed that the cold tap ran hot for quite a while before it got cold. Overall the stay was fine, but with lots of hotels available in Colchester it wouldn’t be my first pick to return.
Brook Red Lion Hotel

Great hotel with a lot of history to it, and as such a very nice place to stay at. Friendly and approachable staff. Unfortunately, I had booked two rooms without adequate facilities; one room did not have hot water and the other had a malfunctioning shower. Could have been bad luck, and I suspect the hotel management to be able to fix this issue.
Muthu Westcliff Hotel (Near London Southend Airport)

Muthu Westcliff Hotel (Near London Southend Airport)

3.7/577 Reviews
Thought the lad on reception was a bit miserable if I am honest, however the room itself was pleasant enough, nice and clean, beds are not as good as the likes of the premier inn but was Ok. The bathroom was huge, which consisted of a huge basin and huge walk in shower and a toilet, all of which were relatively new I would have thought. 10/10 for the bathroom. Didn’t really explorer the hotels other facilities, food was expensive so choice to eat elsewhere, you can walk into the main town centre in 12 minutes. All in all the place was above average and I would stay there again should the price was good and I required to stay in that location.

Anytime I have an early morning flight, instead of paying for a premium train ticket, I take the bus and head to Stansted. Once there, they have a convenient shuttle back to the hotel (£4 Single). Check-in was a breeze, and before I knew it, I was in my room and getting spoiled with a nice, comfy bed, air conditioning, TV, and even a couch. I have at the restaurant, and it was nice, but sometimes I take the shirt, walk to the BP/M&S store or McDonald's, and get something different for a change of taste. Really enjoy this property.
Dragonfly Hotel Colchester

Dragonfly Hotel Colchester

3.8/548 Reviews
We stayed for just one night as we were having a school reunion nearby, so we didn't try the restaurant. We didn't have hreakfast either, so can't comment on it. The location is easy to find - just off the A12. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Rooms were clean and the bed was comfy. Easy car parking. Exactly what we required.

Absolutely wonderful hotel all round. The room and balcony exceeded my expectations, and really pleased me, and my standards are very high and I submitted some specific requests. Top floor, room 904, advised now this one and 910 very popular. Both the room and balcony a really nice size too. Lovely facilities. Nice view of Colchester castle etc. Nice communal areas. The George hotel communal areas are wonderful too and lovely breakfast, great choice, beautifully cooked, and I requested to sit elsewhere as so many beautiful options, and for me generally and as need my own space, and peace as much as possible, and am still very aware re.COVID-19, I eventually arranged to sit in the lovely courtyard. Too busy and noisy for me in the main restaurant. Exemplary staff. I also really liked the fact that you could switch the bathroom ventilator off, otherwise it comes on when you put the light on. Of course one should always switch it on when using the shower and keep it on briefly afterwards. My first Surya experience. Sublime.
