THE GEORGE HOTEL
A handsome hostelry with 500 years of history, few hotels have as many stories to tell as this one. Its dignified facade a distinctive feature of Colchester’s characterful High Street, The George is an authentic coaching inn with a storied history interweaved with the town’s own. Preserved in its mediaeval cellars, the ashes left by Queen Boudicca’s rampage that burned Roman Colchester to the ground take you right back to AD60, while just upstairs, today’s travellers are treated to every contemporary comfort.
Quietly stylish rooms, an atmospheric Lounge Bar and an intimate Courtyard Brasserie complete the allure of the oldest hotel in town, for centuries an icon at the heart of the oldest town in England.
2021 promises to be an exciting year for The George, with a £10 million makeover currently underway. The George is currently closed while these works are taking place but our annexe located across the road at St Nicholas Hotel is still open.
