The exceptional warm welcome by Lorna and Noel made our start to our stay for 3 nights to a great start. Good facilities was provided in the apartment, from toiletries, expresso machine, microwave, oven and kettle. The subtle touches to make the apartment feel homely was touching. Clean cosy feel of the apartment. The bed was so comfortable and slept very well in peaceful surroundings. A great welcome after a long journey to homemade carrot cake 😀

Its only ground and first floor so easy to get up to rooms even if the lift was in use.
Staff were all so helpful with directions, bus details, ordering taxis. They couldn't do enough for us and we noticed they were as good to all the visitors, and callers on the phone.

Never having visited Braintree before, I was pleasantly surprised to find it interesting to walk round, spacious yet with shopping alleys to wander down, and with friendly service in pubs and shops. The only downside was what appeared to be a distinct shortage of places besides The White Hart to go for an evening meal.

A pleasant, pedestrian friendly town centre offering plenty of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars. It has a fine Town Hall, library and museum telling of Braintree's past. A little way out of town is the Freeport Shopping Village and the town is conveniently placed to visit the neighbouring towns of Colchester and Chelmsford.

Food fresh & good choice.
Delicious cooked breakfast - very good value.
Rooms accessed via stairs - no lift - difficult for guests with mobility problems.
We are booking another stay end of November to visit the Christmas Market & enjoy the facilities again.

Braintree town has a good selection of cafe’s and pubs but is sadly lacking in retail outlets and late night entertainment.
It’s a good central position for exploring the area but you’ll definitely need a car because the local bus service isn’t very regular,

I actually come from Braintree so I know it well.
I actually come from Braintree so I know it well. Theres not many good shops in the town centre anymore but theres a retail area called the Braintree Village which is worth a visit and they have lots of shops there.
There is a wonderful eatery place called Toast in the town centre which I can recommend though. They make yummy toasted sandwiches and fancy stuff.
I'd like to say a huge thank you to Scott, who helped us with parking and was extremely welcoming and friendly. The exterior of the hotel is beautiful and the Christmas parties which were happening on both nights looked great, unfortunately that impacted our stay as the visitors made car parking very difficult. Scott came out of the hotel to help us find a parking space and even let us swap spaces with him. He was extremely helpful and lovely!!
My family and I had a great experience at the Holiday Inn Express in Braintree. To begin with, the staff at the front desk and in the breakfast area was exceptional: very professional, kind and helpful. The rooms were very modern and clean. And the breakfast was excellent with quite a variety of breakfast foods and beverages. Great way to start our day! I would highly recommend the Holiday Inn Express to anyone visiting the Braintree area.
Lovely hotel with an immediate feeling of “space” as soon as you entered through the glass doors. Very friendly and helpful staff (the receptionist even came up to my room the following day to help me zip up my outfit I was wearing for a wedding!). I really enjoyed my stay as I felt very comfortable, safe and welcome which is important being a solo traveller.
Lovely B&B, squeaky clean and beautiful decor. Comfy beds and fab bathrooms with great showers and piping hot water. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. Fab restaurant and great outside seating area. Would definitely recommend a stay here. Will definitely go back when back down in Essex. Thank you The Onley for a perfect stay.
The hotel is in a very nice and chilled location set in the centre of a small village. With free parking and brilliant facilities, the overnight stay for a local wedding was brilliant. I cannot fault the hotel at all and would not want to
Lovely old building with lots of character, the staff were super helpful and I had an amazing meal which was also good value for money, it’s centrally located, easy to get to all the highlights Braintree has to offer. Nice big car park
Everything lovely comfortable beds, quiet hotel in a great location! Friendly welcoming staff, lovely selection for breakfast hot and cold food available.
