George Hotel (The) Colchester
This 500 year old coaching inn sits in the oldest town in England, Colchester. The extensive medieval cellars, preserved behind glass, detail soil from old Roman roads and even the ashes left by the fires of Queen Boudicca’s rampage in AD60. Such history resonates throughout this delightful property, offering you the ideal place to relax with warming hospitality and delectable cuisine.
We have 47 beautiful, individually decorated, spacious bedrooms equipped to a high standard and while The George is ideal for seeing the sights of Colchester, the hotel is also suitable for all your business needs. The George is home to a distinctive, lively Brasserie Restaurant boasting good quality English and European dishes. Choose from the fine a la Carte menu or the daily specials. The George also hosts a popular Lounge serving food and beverages throughout the day in spacious, comfortable surroundings making it the ideal place to relax and take a break from the bustling town centre.
Bubbles Wine Bar positioned within The George hotel is a wonderful place to meet friends and enjoy lunch or an early evening aperitif. The modern ambience of Bubbles contrasts with the more traditional style of The George Hotel lounge, the latter featuring real ales and a great lounge food menu, whichever bar you choose, you can be sure of a warm welcome and great hospitality.
