Room was well presented and clean. Restaurant staff were friendly and helpful.
Reception on check in was pleasant but not all staff on reception were as approachable.
Overall: A comfortable room with good amenities, restaurant was good with a good menu including the specials. A good price for a family. (108998766)

Check in friendly.
Friendly greeting at breakfast
After being greeted at breakfast and our order taken for full English breakfast (at £12 per person) the service was none existant. There were 3 of us but the table we were seated at had a side plate missing, not enough butter and we were only served 1 pot of tea for the 3 of us (originally 2 pots had been placed on the table next to ours and eventually we were given one of these pots!) No staff came up to ask if we required more tea or coffee or to see if everything was alright.
Overall: Ok but I have stayed in better hotels that have cost far less (108124892)

General condition of the hotel and the room was good. The food in the restaurant was excellent. Service was generally very good. The check in and check out times were an attraction when booking the hotel.
Very few, it would have been nice to have been able to take a walk around the adjacent lake- but I guess this is not part of the hotel?
Overall: We had a very nice stay and could well use the hotel again. I took out membership of the Ramade frequent user club. (107756688)

Good bed facillities clean good breakfast An evening meal was offered when we arrived at 9pm
Overall: we have used the Colchester Ramada for many years as our over night stop from the Hook Harwich ferry. We are always very happy and contented with its friendliness, cleanliness and convenience to the ferry. (107770280)
Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?
Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.
How do I add a rating?
Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.
All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.
How do you manage to collect so many ratings?
48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
