"I had a really pleasant stay at The Ship. The room was compact but spotless and well-organised, with a comfy single bed, en-suite bathroom, TV, and a side cabinet stocked with tea, coffee, and biscuits—such a thoughtful touch. It had been a long time since I’d slept in a single bed, but it was surprisingly comfortable and perfect for a good night’s rest. I’d definitely stay again and would recommend it to other travellers looking for a clean, cosy spot with all the essentials.

"Arrived at 2.10pm (50 minutes early) and despite the room being ready I was advised I couldn’t check in until 3pm unless I paid £15. For 50 minutes that’s ridiculous.
Bed was great but room even with window closed was very noisy.
Fan in the shower is poor.
Around the tv was exceptionally dusty and the fan provider was filthy, we had to scrub it clean. The kettle was full of water and limescale."
"I find the people friendly and nice and the place very clean and plenty of rooms and a lovely shower and the place is a very near to the airport well done Remarc."

Top Chelmsford Cathedral Hotel Reviews
The Tower Hotel, by Thistle
10/10 Excellent
"Brilliant location. The self check in was straightforward with helpful hotel staff on hand if required. Room was a basic double with a view over the Thames. The room furniture was a little tired in places, but the room clean as was the bathroom. Breakfast plenty of choice for most tastes. The food was of good quality and always hot. I certainly would recomment this hotel."
"This boutique hotel has a lot of cute trinkets, unique paintings, and thoughtful design touches that gave it a lot of character. It definitely has a warm, artistic vibe that stands out from typical chain hotels.
My room was located on the 4th floor, but be aware that the elevator only goes up to the 3rd. I had to carry my luggage up another floor from stairs, which can be a bit of a hassle if you have large suitcases. I’d recommend requesting a room on a lower floor if mobility or luggage is your concern.
The location is great, very convenient for sightseeing. It’s close to the Tube and C2C train station, with a bus stop just around the corner. I also felt safe walking around the area even in the evening, which is a big plus.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The only thing I was not happy about was the weak Wi-Fi signal in my room. It made staying connected a bit frustrating, especially when trying to plan activities or check travel details.
Overall, it’s a lovely, cozy place with lots of personality, just make sure you pack light or plan accordingly if you're not on one of the lower floors.
