The hotel is in a great location on the cliffs above the sea front. Everything was very clean and staff friendly and polite. We particularly liked the outside terrace area at the front of the hotel. We arrived by train and it is about a 15 minute walk from the station. Didn't eat at the hotel so cannot comment on food.
Would certainly stay here again if we are ever in Southend on Sea.
Our room was spotless , a comfy bed and a good shower , the pool+ hot room area were really good, but for reference there are 3 (members only) aqua aerobics classes a week which use the whole pool , and whose participants’warm up’ prior to the class -so it’s very busy to the class , there are a great selection of (pre bootable )classes , treatments and a well equipped gym (all obviously open to members ) , the meal options are delicious, and the staff are charming
We booked a compact double at an extremely good price so the room was small as expected but it had everything we needed.
The breakfasts were excellent and i loved that they served til 10am. I loved the vibrant quirky look of the public areas. Our room overlooked the estuary and was at the end of the corridor. Lovely and warm and relatively quiet
My only gripe were the loud fan in the ensuite and the inability to have a softer night light. The nascerator toilet was also very loud .
For the money we were delughted with the service , location and amrnities

The room was clean and tidy with great natural light, and the bedding was comfortable, leading to a very restful sleep. The facilities were complete, and the soundproofing was good, so it was quiet overall. The front desk staff were warm and attentive, making both check-in and check-out quick and easy. The location is convenient for getting around, and it offers excellent value for money. I would definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip.
Was a really nice hotel very quiet and very clean! Staff for check in were really friendly and the place was cheap too! The rooms are very big with a lot of space, balcony area was good to relax on too with good views of the city center

The Radisson Blu hotel is the perfect solution if you arrive late at the airport. It's a 2-minute walk from the terminal. It's a shame we only stayed for one night. Very nice.
Nice room with very comfortable bed, especially the pillows! Convenient to get to the airport, which was a £4 shuttle bus. Parking is £15 per day for guests, which is a bit of a rip-off as this should be free and included in the room rate… but other than that, no complaints. There was air con in the room, which was much needed as it was very hot.

There's a shuttle bus from London Stansted Airport that costs £4. The hotel is surrounded by conveniences like a convenience store, Starbucks, and McDonald's, so you won't have any issues unless it's late at night. The room was very clean, making for a pleasant stay. I didn't have breakfast, so I can't comment on that, but the dinner menu had quite a few expensive options.
The room is quite big, very clean, all the supplies do not need to bring, the public area of the hotel is very British, there is a large grass at the entrance of the hotel is very beautiful, it is really good to take a walk in the morning, and the campus view of the University of Essex is also very beautiful on the side.

I booked a last minute night away with the children: afternoon tea followed by an overnight. The afternoon tea was delicious and I was really well catered for as a vegan diner. The Grand Hall was a beautiful setting for afternoon tea. The children also loved their food - the sandwiches were much simpler for the children and they got seconds based on how delicious they were. Our room was large and had a sofa bed and a cot bed. We enjoyed playing in the grounds including the play area, outdoor chess, boules, the scavenger hunt and the fitness trail. My son also loved playing football in the garden - he was excited that there were goals set up. We had dinner in The Fox Bar and had drinks and played cards in the Grand Hall afterwards. Breakfast the next morning was delicious. We were really excited to find newts in the pond. They would love to stay again. I would love to come for an overnight with my partner to experience it differently without the children.
Very Good

GGuest UserServed its purpose for a one night stay. Clean and practical, nice rooms with everything you need. Fire alarm went off at night which was annoying, but otherwise was peaceful and quiet. Would stay again!

SSamuelThe hotel staff were very nice and kind. Upon arrival we had a lot of bags and the staff made sure we got a room on ground floor and there was a trolley to move our items at once.
We were indoors all the time so cleaning staff left our room to give us privacy. Next morning we requested to have our room cleaned and in 5 mins there was someone there to clean. So efficient!!
GGuest UserGood on value for money. peaceful location and environment, comfortable stay, helpful staff. Found a spider and a few insects in the washroom, they can definitely do better with cleanliness. asked housekeeping for a general room clean up while I was out and they emptied the bins and all but beds were not made. I left my Apple Watch accidentally in the room and when I came back it was still there . So good honest staff.

GGuest UserFacilities is good as it has swimming pool sauna and steam. It’s also has Jacuzzi and gym room.  besides swimming pool, most of this is only allow for age above 16.
 For the  breakfast,  if they can provide more vegetable salad it will be better.
