Top Essex Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express London Stansted Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Welcoming, helpful staff on reception, in restaurant and breakfast time. Food and drink on offer is just right to cater for most tastes. Room was clean, well-designed, modern and comfortable. Recommended."

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

4/10 Poor

"The lobby is the best part of the hotel.. otherwise it’s truly a waste of money. Room was old and the toilet didn’t flush properly. Smelt of “old” We ate at the restaurant terrible seabass burnt skin. And my sweet potato fries only arrived after asking for it again, half cooked. £156 for the pleasure. I have stay across the world and this is by far up there with the worst wouldn’t not return"

The Essex Golf and Country Club

8/10 Good

"No signs for the exit in the ladies pool changing room, and nowhere to leave your room key, which activates your locker, if you can work out how to do it. Nice pool and jacuzzi though, rooms could do with a deep clean, but daily basics are done and it's comfortable. Staff are very helpful and happy to help with queries, rooms spacious and mine had a lovely view, plenty of (free) parking."

Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We stay here every year before an early flight, the rooms are perfect for a family of 4 - one double and one double sofa bed. You don’t hear the airport noise at night and they do you a breakfast grab bag if you are leaving early. Beat Stansted hotel I’ve tried."

DeSalis Hotel London Stansted

6/10 Okay

"The hotel seemed further from Stansted airport than Expedia quoted. The exterior of the property had potential, but wasn't well maintained and there was debris piled up in various locations as I drove around the building. The hotel itself is outdated and could do with some renovation work. The shower stepup in our room was poorly positioned and made for an awkward shower."
