“What stands out is its embrace of local charm with modern comforts, especially pleasing is the on-site pub alongside the complimentary in-room refreshments and very varied breakfast; I found that the historic building is a great location, near the ferry terminal and coastal walks. It's a solid choice if you want a taste of Harwich.”
