Good reasonable priced place to stay for when you are clubbing at festival park and have problems getting home. Also used this for relatives to stay at when visiting us. Clean and well maintained. read more

As long as you're there just for somewhere to sleep - it's a Travelodge after all - it's pretty good. It's very close to all of the clubs though so keep your windows closed for the night.

The food was absolutely inedible. 2 stars for the live music entertainment ( the disco music at the end of the dinner was a weird mix of provincial radio music and teenager's iPod) and obviously because, like for everything, the only important thing is the company!
I was here last weekend for a customers christmas function…read more The hotel is set in its own grounds and although we arrived in the dark it looks like a very old building. My customer treated me to the evening but I gather the tickets were £45.00 each. The entrance room at first glance is very small, I did think is this it at first! However, they use this room to offer a glass of champagne prior to going to the table. The ballroom was set for dinner and a great job had been done of dressing the room and the tables. The company I was with had three tables out of approx 30 , with a mixture of all sorts of companies. Each table had three ice buckets of assorted wines and jugs of beer were provided throughout dinner, to be fair they kept us well supplied throughout. Dinner was usual Christmas fare but I must say was very good quality which i didnt expect for this type of do. At 9.30 pm the table service stopped and a free bar was opened up. The only draw back ( and the way they get you ) is that the bar was tiny and staffed by two people only - therefore you had to queue for drinks for at least 5\10 mins. Now luckily we had several young lads in our group who saw this as a chance to chat up some of the lovely looking young ladies also in the queue. They kept the rest of us "old ones" supplied with a never ending glass of brandy. After dinner the disco started which everybody seemed to enjoy. The night was wrapped up by midnight and the usual scrum for taxis started - a great night and if I get an invite next year I would like to go again.
Innkeepers Lodge
We stayed at the lodge in August 2008 and were very happy with the location. Our friends were…read moregetting married in Stock and it was nearby other wedding festivities. Also, the train ride to London wasn't terribly long and well worth the trip. The station is just a mile from the lodge. The rooms were clean with private bathrooms. Absolutely no complaints regarding the room. It would have been nice if the cleaning ladies had held off on vacuuming early in the morning but, it helped to get us out of bed and off for the day. Adjacent to a Toby Carvery there was breakfast included each morning which consisted of cereals, yogurt, fruit, juices, cheeses, and I think toast. Being gluten-free my choices were fairly limited but it was an alright breakfast. We ate at the Carvery for one meal and it was nice - the other guests seemed to be really excited about it. I was much more satisfied with the food at The Hoop in pub nearby. If we were going back to that particular area again we would definitely consider staying here again and be willing to check out other locations. For the price and amenities it was everything we needed.
Hotel Campanile Basildon

I will preface this review by saying that I was lucky enough to benefit from a special Campanile…read moredeal offering a night's accommodation for just £1. At that price, I can hardly be too critical, but the fact is that this hotel was tired and in need of refurbishment. A question arises about why Campanile made this special offer. Presumably, it is to encourage new clients to try them out with a view to encouraging them to stay again with the chain. But my experience here was off-putting, and a poor ad for the company. The bedding was clean, and the bed itself large and comfortable. But I didn't like entering the room from the car park, nor the fact that wet shoes were inevitably trailed all over the floor. Tea and coffee were provided for making drinks, but just two tea bags and two coffee sachets per day. A bit miserly, I thought. Of course, there was a packet of two biscuits each (two persons). The bathroom door wouldn't shut properly, which could be a touch embarrassing. And, speaking of loos, why do Campanile never provide a loo brush? And why skimp on grotty loo roll? Campanile belongs to the same group as the French Première Classe chain, but in truth, this hotel was worse than some of the Première Classe hotels I have stayed in. Yet PC is in theory more downmarket than Campanile, charging from 35 to 45 euros a night, compared to around £50 for the Basildon Campanile (though you can find it cheaper if you're lucky or flexible about your dates). Oh, and don't arrive at a festive time of year without your mobile. There's no-one at Reception, but a small notice on the door asking you to ring a number "in emergency". I eventually decided that my sleep was indeed an emergency, and fortunately had my mobile with me, so rang the number. Would I go back? Only if there was a very good deal!

The layout in the restaurant is lovely, they have upstairs and downstairs and the majority of tables are booths which are a bit more private. The service we have had has always been good.

Just a warning - the plate or profiteroles you get for dessert is massive - enough for two to share!

I phoned up to book the room just a few days beforehand and they had vacancies (make of that what you will). I paid £69 for their smallest double room which seemed significantly cheaper than the rates being offered elsewhere. The price included all-you-can eat breakfast for two. The first phonecall (where the person on the other end answered with "hello?" prompting me to double-check I'd punched in the right number) set the standard for the rest of my experience. Check in was allowed from 2pm. I arrived shortly afterwards and found, to my dismay, that for a hotel that boasts 24 rooms, the car park had capacity for just six vehicles (and at the time one of these spaces was being used by a staff member). I was told, rather unhelpfully, to park in a bay that required my partner to get out of the car first as the edge of the bay was the wall. It took me ten minutes to park, not because I am a bad driver but because it was so tightly packed that every second I feared I was going to hit another car or run over my partner (thankfully I did neither). The check in staff were friendly enough, although we weren't shown to our room or offered any assistance with our luggage (which considering we had a small baby would have been greatly appreciated). The room itself was nicely decorated and of a good size considering it was a "compact" room. The en-suite had clearly been cleaned thoroughly as it sparkled. The view from our window was less than breathtaking - we overlooked the service corridor (and a large pile of rubbish sacks) and part of the car park. You get what you pay for I suppose. The TV was OK for a hotel TV - we had a few good Freeview channels (although the reception was less than acceptable for a few) and supposedly a DVD player although I couldn't find any instructions of how to use it (same for the high-speed WiFi which is advertised on the website). There was also the usual array of hotel appliances we never use like the trouser press, iron and desk fan etc. The hotel had its own bar and lounge, although we didn't make use of them. They looked well equipped and busy. The hotel was reasonably close to the seafront, although the tricky one way system that surrounds it will leave you scratching your head. The use of a satnav is advised. I was also loathe to go out again as it meant navigating out of the car park (and back in again later), the thought of which really put a dampener on the whole trip. The place was generally quiet by about 11pm, save for a few thuds of people coming up the stairs and fumbling with their keys. I slept quite soundly and the bed was comfortable. The baby slept in the Moses basket we brought from home, although a cot was available had we needed it. Breakfast was served from 8:30am and was good even though the dining room was somewhat cramped. Our table featured a toaster (for what reason I'll never know as none of the other tables had one and I don't even think ours was plugged in). The full English was indeed all-you-can-eat and the food was of good standard. The staff were more than happy to cook more of something when the supply ran out. There was also a selection of cereals, yoghurts and toast. My partner mentioned that she thought the orange juice was watered down and not pure which, if accurate, seems like a slightly underhanded thing to do. I had two issues with breakfast: one was that the staff tended to hover around you and quickly took away plates and cups that we had used which is very off-putting; the other was the time you are allocated to eat. Breakfast begins at 8:30am and you are expected to check out before 10am. I like to take some time over my breakfast, particularly when it's all-you-can-eat and I felt somewhat hurried by it all and didn't have the time to enjoy it as I would have liked. An hour and a half to eat breakfast and pack up and be out of the hotel doesn't seem like a very long time. Then of course we had the nightmare of trying to get out of the car park... All in all, a decidedly average stay. There was nothing major that I can gripe about, just little things that add up and either frustrate or disappoint which can easily sour the whole trip. For the price we paid it was good, although I think next time I'll pay the extra £20 and stay somewhere a little more upmarket.
