위벤호 하우스 호텔

Stayed for 1 night on business. Everything was in general fine. Room was a bit warm and no air con meant fans needed to be on all night. Dinner was fair however fish and chips were overcooked not burnt but in the fryer way too long. Lots of training ongoing with new staff so expected a few mishaps. Would stay again if in the area.

We liked the mix of the old and new in this hotel. The grounds were beautiful. Breakfast very tasty as well.

Happy.with my stay was clean and tidy,breakfast was great plenty of choice of food.Staff was helpfull had.a lovely lounge and plenty of parking as well!

Perfect experience

The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean. We were delighted to find that our room had always been serviced prior to our return from breakfast. The room was huge, with a very extensive balcony.

Room was spotlessly clean with everything you needed. Staff were extremely hospitable and attentive. Breakfast was fresh and a wide variety of food on offer. Balcony was a nice touch.

We stayed here using some Tesco vouchers to pay for the stay. We booked a Superior Balcony Room for one night. Check-in was very friendly and quick, and we were walked to our room by the receptionist. The room was lovely, but we did discover an issue with the electronic lock — it wouldn’t lock when we went to leave. We reported it to reception, and someone came to have a look at it quite quickly. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to resolve the issue, so we were moved to a Deluxe Room. The hotel is beautiful, and the old house is lovely to have a look around. There’s also a beautiful lounge where guests can relax. We had dinner in the Park Brasserie, which was wonderful. The roast beef was perfectly cooked, and everything on the plate was excellent — it was also a generous portion. There’s a wonderful dessert trolley to tempt you after a hearty main course. Breakfast the next morning was equally good. It was served in the same restaurant, with a good selection of both hot and cold options available.

Staff very welcoming in both the reception and restaurant. Large bedroom, very clean and comfortable bed, lovely view. Food was good too

Friendly and attentive staff and a superb dinner, good room and very comfortable

Pillows and bedding was uncomfortable so not a good nights sleep

Wonderful 2 night stay. Staff excellent with good service. We had breakfast and evening meal - food really good. Rooms very clean - we were in the garden annex 2 Fans in room to use which we did as hot weather. Would definitely stay ago. Couldn’t fault anything.

Always a great time at the Wivenhoe. The best !!!

This was a reasonably priced and fairly comfortable option. Staff were generally very helpful and exceptionally polite. However, on our arrival after being seated in the brasserie, we had to wait a long time and eventually find someone, to place our order. We liked our room with balcony, and the parkland environment. However, it was impossible to use the bathroom during the night without waking the other occupant because of light spillage. As a suggestion it would be good for the hotel to work with the university management to develop a safe pedestrian route to the bus stops at South Courts - the footpath runs out at the car parks and we found we had to walk on the road to progress towards the bus stop. This would be completely unmanageable for someone in a wheelchair. There was a wedding going on during our stay and as the wedding party were using the enclosed garden space, we weren't sure if we could sit there.

A lovely place in the Essex campus. Attentive staff, comfortable room with nespresso machine and huge bed. Very quiet and great for exploring the area.

Clean Rooms, Attentive and friendly staff, quiet and peaceful sleep. Only thing id suggest is hooks in the Superior rooms just for quick access to handbag/jacket rather than drapping them on chair or having to take them off hangers in the wardrobe. Also, the vanity mirror in the bathroom should have its own socket/electricity switch as having the vanity mirror light on with the bathroom light gets very bright and overwhelming first thing in the morning.

Nice hotel in a great setting, very handy for the university sports complex next door. Food and service in the restaurant was excellent. The only thing to note is that this hotel does not have air conditioning, there is a fan in the room but it can still get pretty warm if the weather is nice.

Lovely venue and the staff were amazing, the only minor glitch is there wasn’t air con in the room despite it being of a modern construction

The setting is beautiful, room was spacious and comfortable. View from the balcony was lovely and staff were very friendly. Even a little welcome bag for the pooch.
