Top Hotels Near Essex Steam Train in Essex from AU$110

"The hotel is beautiful. Staff are great. Everyone we met was super friendly from front desk to waitresses in the restaurant, to the very friendly cleaning staff and those working in the spa. Spa was very relaxing, clean and inviting. I would not hesitate to return."

"It is a lovely hotel."

"I'll start off with the positives: - The greeter, who I presume was the owner, was kind and allowed me to start my check-in early (with a fee, but that was to be expected). - The property, despite having the layout of a motel, looked very nice. And the moment I stepped into my room, it felt I was in a high-class hotel. - Most (not all, but I'll get to that in the negatives) amenities were provided. - The price, compared to what else I was finding in the area, was relatively inexpensive. And now for the negatives: - A very minor one, but tissues would be a nice amenity to have had in the room. - The location is close to the highway. Probably great for finding business from weary travelers, but unideal for morning-sleepers like I. - The chairs in the room, though looking nice, felt cheaply made. I heard the one I sat at cracking as I sat, and I feared it might break underneath me."

"Good location"

"ROCK HARD BEDS, COULDN'T SLEEP, FILTHY, STAINED TOWELS, NO BLANKETS ON BEDS, RUN DOWN, TERRIBLE VALUE. They have let this place go to have more $$ in their pockets. So sad. I stayed 8.5 years ago and it was nice."

"House was immaculate and very well appointed. Host was easy to reach and wanted to ensure we had a good stay. Beautiful views of the woods! Like staying in a treehouse"

"My room was supposed to be non-smoking but it wasn't and stunk of cigarettes. When I got there I rang the doorbell to check in, after several time someone showed up and the first thing he said was do you have a reservation? The towels were thin, I had only one washcloth, and there was soap but no shampoo. The ice machine was locked. There was no breakfast, not even coffee! At 8 AM for checking out there was no one at the desk for me to drop my car off with and I was not about to leave it in the dropoff box they provided. "

"Room was spacious and very comfortable. Description did not match the room. There was a tub but it wasn’t a jacuzzi and there is no radiant heat in the bathroom as stated. There's actually no heat in the bathroom at all. Way overpriced. This room is not worth $600 per night. I wouldn't go back."

"Yvette was so communicative and made the stay great! The house was amazing and everything was cozy and comfortable. It was great for a group!"
