ドレイパーズ ホテル

The bar staff at check-in were friendly. The rooms are upstairs in old characterful Essex pub in a pretty village. There are only four parking spaces which were taken so we parked behind the local co-op a short walk away. The room itself was small but clean and well equipped. However, the biggest issue is the lack of ventilation in the room which was hot and airless without the radiator being on. We had to have the fan on all night (in December) as couldn’t open the window and the extractor in the bathroom did not work. This is the second time we have stayed here to visit family. The first time was a few years ago in a different room which was also extremely hot and airless. Sadly, we wouldn’t stay again.

Parking was difficult, the pub operates until midnighton weekends with plenty of street noise and activity. My room had no heavy duty curtains to block the outside light.

Not enough parking but hotel really good

The room was dusty, there was limescale and mould in the kettle - the bed sheets and duvet were stained - TV never worked all in all a very bad experience

Liked the decor, room was comfy but snug, bed was comfotable. only downside was no breakfast served so had to travel to nearest garden centre for breakfast hense 4 stars.

Bad never let me in want a refund

Friendly staff, beautiful rooms

The property needs updating rooms are dark bathroom very dated Bar staff showed you to your room and no clear instruction for fire drill etc given No parking had to park in nearby supermarket

Excellent food. Comfortable bed. Staff excellent.

No parking due to a opened back tranist full of rubbish bocking car park for two days also they have reduced there car park to only 6 parking space

Nähe zu Home meiner Tochter

Limited parking, no breakfast at property

Very comfortable room very clean and also friendly staff would stay again

Parking is none existent. 5 spaces at pub. Public parking 800yrds away. Not ideal.

Unusual and quirky room.Decorated really well.Above a pub but quiet. Only quibble, no one around when checking out as pub closed at 10 am.No instructions where to leave the keys.Had to leave them in the door lock.

Great room, loved the décor, bed comfortable and great value for money. Ease of registering, staff friendly and polite. My room had a fridge, which is so helpful. Despite and event on below my room, I heard nothing, really quiet. I booked due to location for my work, will definitely be booking again. Only downside: parking, due to working late, the car park was busy twice, the first night a customer in the bar offered to move her car and the second evening the owner moved their car for me to park - as I said amazing venue. I believe if you arrived at a normal work time, this would not be an issue.

Reception staff dismissive & unwelcoming. No longer serves breakfast & dining room closed Monday & Tuesday but no indicated on website - would not have booked had I known. Room clean but curtains very old & weary.

Nice room, bed was comfy and location was good. Staff were pleasant. Hardly any parking though. Nice stay although shame there is no breakfast.

I chose to stay here given the high score and positive reviews left by others. I must say my experience was not the best. It started with parking issues. I arrived to find the car park is tiny and can really only fit about 4 cars in it (5 at a squeeze) and was full. Not knowing the area I had no idea what my options were. I could see that there is allocated street parking but all of this was full too. I had to find somewhere to pull over and call the property. I was directed to a public non-paying car park situated behind them - having arrived there that was full. I went back to the hotel where a very friendly member of staff got one of the regulars to move their car to let me in the car park as they could not advise me what any other option was. I was shown to my room which was quirky but quite small. I wasn’t given any instructions about use of the wi-if or what the arrangements were for leaving keys in the morning and had to ask 2 different members of staff to get the correct information. The bed was comfortable but there was a constant noise in the room all night which sounded like a fan or something, so I didn’t have the best sleep. In the morning, the water pressure was terrible in the shower and the water was not hot - just warm at best. Also the water did not drain away. Overall not great - would I stay again, unfortunately not.

Lovely little place , friendly staff and super comfortable and clean room . Would def go back
