Breakfast was £8 and poor quality. Property needs a deep clean. Really friendly staff. Right on the sea front.

Was a small room but sleepable

Absolutely wonderful hotel!!!

There was shops nearby the bar never seemed to be open

Breakfast was good. Room clean but health and safety compromised. Room was not cleaned

Terrible state of the shower and bathroom No hot water

Despite friendly staff this hotel is in a poor state. The central heating didn’t work but there was a tiny oil filled radiator in the room. The shower pressure was barely enough today wet. There was no plug in the hand basin. The room smelt musty. The bedside lamp couldn’t work as there was no plug socket nearby etc

Nice and tidy place to spent holiday

Room had no central heating,only a oil fired radiator Bathroom underfloor heating only in middle of day, nowhere to put any items in bathroom and poor lighting and no drinking water for kettle. Plug sockets could only do kettle or radiator and no socket for lamp by bed. Very basic room,towels too small. Breakfast very good value

The man at reception was great but the accommodation was terrible: the e stayed in a room which looked like a coffin, found a bottle of something which looked like drugs, random coat hangers, so many drawers which contained screws, dirty shower which switched between hot and cold constantly…. The “sea view room” overlooked a flat roof and couldn’t view the sea… laundry was being done throughout the night which kept us awake.

Very quiet time of the year, we were the only ones for a huge wonderful breakfast. Room was a bit chilly the first night, but came okay after being "lived in". The room had an emergency light up high which meant the room was not completely dark. Bed, shower etc all good. Good location. We were very happy with our choice of accommodation on our return to Clacton after 37 years!! Recommend the Esplanade Hotel to everyone.

Shower was useless. bar service slow. staff we're friendly

They appeared not to be aware of us arriving. When we first got into our room, which was quite spacious however was very cold as there was no heating on. There was a small plug in radiator. After we complained they put the heating on but we had to sit in our coats until it warmed up.

Great room on sea front

Room was clean and tidy. Staff was helpful Good breakfast

We had an incredible time at this ultra lovely hotel !! The staff were incredible !! Such lovely people who give you a very warm welcome !! The food was extremely nice all served around the lovely scenery of clacton beach !! The room was bright and airy but lacked a little table in front of the settee to put your tea / coffee on !! That bed was so comfortable and spacious !! The parking was easy to find and i must say a massive thank you to Charlie who really went out of his way to get us to the comrades when we couldn't book a cab due to unavailability !! Thank you so much mate much appreciated !! We shall certainly be staying there again !! Kind regards mark and shazza star x

Large room with great sea view. It was fairly basic with flimsy bedside tables and lacked drawer unit for clothes; however had clean functional bathroom and clean bedding. Breakfast was very good. Nice friendly staff. Free parking and early check-in a real bonus. Great location. Early check-in

Very good position in Clacton, staff very friendly, our room had a great sea view. Breakfast very nice and well presented.

Room was ok Low budget furniture Corridors were not clean especially the carpets Found out there was a private party after booking Room was very secure so left without staying
