Recent Reviews in Virley

Seven Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location to stay in Southend. Parking at the rear, restaurant on site and breakfast in the morning. Great nights sleep due to the beds, very comfy."

Best Western The Rose & Crown Hotel

8/10 Good

"My room was clean and spacious. Twin in the separate wing. Food in the restaurant was awful at dinner and they’d be better serving basic English food rather than attempting foreign cuisine. It was adequate for my purpose of dropping off a teen at university. Parking was great although very full, WiFi good and location central. All being said I’d stay again when I visit the university."

The Essex Golf and Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely location, always enjoy"

Wivenhoe House Hotel

"Room, grounds and staff are amazing. We ordered a gift package for the room as a birthday celebration, cost of £9 for 2 chocolates is extortionate."
