Green Man by Chef & Brewer Collection

Clean room

Not enough fans to go around. The rooms are too hot

This is a pleasant, unexpectedly inexpensive Essex stopover, very handy for the M11. Owing, I think, to a mix-up over our dog (though I'd exchanged emails with the hotel on the subject, the fact we were travelling with a cocker had not been registered) we had an unusually large ground-floor room equipped for disabled visitors. The rooms are in a plain, modern hotel block behind the more traditional pub. The restaurant is popular and the food is fairly good, both dinner (a little bit slow) and the cooked breakfast. There is ample parking. The hotel staff loved the dog!

The Chef & Brewer internet service is a bit clunky. Otherwise, nothing in particular. This was just what we needed on our way to the Channel tunnel, 90 minutes away.

Very clean

The door key card every time we arrived back the card would not let us enter room being on the 2nd floor was a pain had to keep returning to the front desk

Very slow service due to lack of staff. Poached eggs and other items over cooked

Room was exceptionally hot. Fan did not work properly
