    Location: the hotel was just next door to shops, restaurants & transport, the bus station and the train station, and Colchester Castle Museum and Natural History Museum. Also, it was around 10-15 minutes walk from Colchester Arts Centre. Wonderful continental breakfast except for deep fried potatoes and all the food was amazing.
