Your receptionist Andra was the first member of staff we met. She was wonderful. After that, we met Marvin and lots of others, but I didn’t get their names. Those in housekeeping, dining area and bar were very attentive, without being overbearing. We will return. Please could you ask management to share this review.

    Chelmsford has good shops and restaurants.

    Chelmsford has good shops and restaurants. When we travel down by train we have easy access around places using the bus service. Train and bus stations or taxis are easy to get to. One of our favorite places to eat was the indian restaurant in Moulsham street.

    Great fun for the hen do! The best taxi firm in Essex we found, after a lot of hassle from others, was ‘Your Cabbie’. Graham was our driver and was our knight in shining taxi! 01245 354040, highly recommend!

    Having lived in Chelmsford since 1960 i have seen lots of changes, i have now moved away but still go back to visit family, it is a lovely town with lots of nice shops and plenty of places to eat. There is a Cathedral in the centre of town which is worth going to see.Not much more to say except that it is a good place to visit if you are in nearby Colchester and the coastal towns of Clacton Walton and Frinton.

    Apartment was clean and spacious with a number of amenities such as essential food items, bread and milk etc. Rooms were well kept and maintained, comfortable. Living area was modern and clean, bathrooms as expected again with all essentials (towels, cleaning supplies etc) Communication prior to arrival was clear and timely, no issues with entry or exit. Close to Chelmsford centre with lots of places to eat and drink. Overall I’d recommend very highly and would likely stay again if and when we visited again. Thanks

    so pleasantly surprised! the place was so clean, really good quality and the amenities is awesome, it has everything, even a washing machine. this place is the combo between the best thing about a hotel and a flat. the interior is really cozy and pretty, and it's so spacious. i felt right at home - it's way better than my own place so i just wanted to stay! there's a Tesco's express right across the street, and it's literally in the middle of chelmsford plus moulsham street has a lot of good restaurants

    This property is beautifully located by the River Chelmer in an upmarket development a few minutes walk just outside of Chelmsford city centre. The apartment is in a brand new development with modern furnishings, comfortable beds and sofa. Everything was exquisitely clean with adequate toilet roll etc. The host was very helpful and approachable and a pleasure to deal with. All pictures matched the apartment and was not dated or innacurate. Highly recommended!

    The apartment was very spacious . Living, kitchen , bathrooms and bedrooms were all very well equipped. Given the space & 2 bedrooms included, the price of the apartment was much lower than the average prices of similar new properties in Chelmsford. The location is within 10-15 minutes walking distance from the Chelmsford railway station & the Central Park in Chelmsford. The furniture and furnishings in the living room, bathrooms were all brand new

    We enjoyed our stay despite the fact we were in Chelmsford for a hospital appointment. Staff very friendly and also staff in Belstead. Only downside we were unable to use bath as I had a very bad fall in our bath so have to use small bath lift. I should have requested walk in shower. Toilet could also have been higher.

    Spotlessly clean. Great staff. Amazing room in terms of decor and history of the building. Great facilities in the room that you would need to relax and for a business trip. Dulco coffee machine. You will be at the back of the building for all rooms, so not noisy that way. Massive rooms.
