Top St James' Church Hotel Reviews

Oyster Fleet Hotel

8/10 Good

"Having stayed at the Oyster Fleet Hotel on quite a few occasions now. I was pleased to be given a ground floor room in the ajacent building. Which had its own entry and exit door. The rooms as always are kept very clean and with a comfortable bed etc. Now on this occasion myself and my wife were kept awake until the early hours of the morning with the television blaring out music by one guest nest door. Well if that wasn't bad enough. We then had another older guest the other side with what I could only describe as having social problems. What with her cursing all night into the early hours of the morning, the television blaring away. Not only describing she didn't want to go to jail again over a long and highfluted extremely loud conversation with her brother. I found myself totally exhausted having had very little sleep over my three day stay. Otherwiseothe hotel is in a great location in Canvey Island with very freindly and helpful staff."
