Stifford Hall Hotel Thurrock

Lovely hotel. Staff are so friendly, helpful and always smiling. Food here is amazing and great value for money. Hotel is in a fantastic location and again a great price. Room is a good size and beat part the bed is so comfortable. Highly recommend.

The shower was not working could not bath in the morning I informed reception and they were going to send someone and no one came only when i was checking out thats when they came.

It was ok. I know they are renovating which is fine and we got moved from a double room to a garden suite room which was more roomy. I will say in the double room bath / shower. It's a bit awkward to turn on the shower as the glass partition doesn't move and I'm pretty agile. Parking is free which is good. Walls are very thin so you can here alot of people. I had paid for breakfast included in price and the first morning it was all out on the buffet. The last 2 days I had to order it whilst sitting down which wasn't ideal for getting in and out for breakfast, so ended up just taking a banana and getting breakfast at work. The eggs were very plain and mushrooms looked very bland when I did have them on the first day The stay was good. Staff were nice. Think a bit more training for the younger ones is needed. For example. It's not a biggie but I asked which red wine is a sweeter. Not a clue. Also I got charged £22 for a bottle of wine when I asked for a 250ml and a smaller glass of red wine lol. We had a laugh and said it's fine. There's no dedicated drinking water tap. I did ask but the response was "oh, we won't know the difference". Only tap water or the 750ml glass bottles. Not a biggie too Managed to do a late check out for £10 and hour which is not bad. Library was nice to sit in and get last min work doings done. Apart from that. I'm never really picky. Just expressing what could of been better. Will try this hotel again once renovated for a work trip.

My room smelled of cigarettes. Heating (air conditioning) didn’t work. Bathroom smelled of drainage. Bed was okay. Breakfast was good!

Attending a three day conference. Hotel staff are amazingly helpful nothing is too much trouble. Refurbishment is taking place but organised chaos! Not a problem at all. Will be returning again in April.

Excellent stay. Room was very comfortable and clean. Staff were very warm and friendly. If you need a hotel in that neck of the woods would highly recommend Stifford Hall without hesitation.

Very convenient for the A13, and there was no significant noise from it. The receptionist was lovely. The room was comfortable and clean. We only stayed a night, so did not try any of the other facilities. Surprisingly, cheaper for our stay than the less pleasant Premier Inn up the road. The only negative is the £3 charge for car parking, even as a hotel guest. It’s very minor in the grand scheme of things, but I was just surprised by it.

Stay here frequently, clean and comfortable. Staff are all friendly and welcoming. Food is delicious too.

My mother and I stayed here the night before starting a cruise which left from Tilbury. We ate a tasty dinner at the hotel bar and a great breakfast the next morning. The hotel arranged for a taxi to take us to the boat which was great! The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean and had all the necessities. We would stay here again if we take another cruise leaving from Tilbury.
