Hotels near Bell Meadow Park Chelmsford, Chelmsford

Room and staff very helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Only downside was price. Admittedly it was a Saturday night, but £90+ was a bit expensive. Only 10 min walk from cricket ground ans Aldi close by to stock up on supplies for next day at cricket!

The room was spacious and clean, most importantly the location is very quiet meaning that you can get a decent night's sleep. We had dinner at the hotel along with some friends, unfortunately the group suffer multiple allergies and intolerances, Helda (the restaurant/bar manager?), took control of our ordering checking each order with the kitchen and even ensuring that a new batter was made up for my wife who wanted fish. It was an immense relief to deal with a team who understood the importance of allergies which led to a relaxed enjoyable meal. The food was better than expected for a hotel and in my books rated as good. Breakfast was freshly cooked and again rated good, the coffee was a bit cool but you can't expect perfection. Having tried many hotels in the area we will book again. Fans in the room would have been a welcome addition, otherwise no major complaints.

We recently held our wedding ceremony and reception at Ivy Hill Hotel and words cannot adequately express how wonderful it was! The grounds are stunning and a photographer’s dream! So many locations that provide the perfect backdrop. The interior rooms are tasteful and elegant and can be adapted to any number of guests. The Ivy Suite and Ingatestone Room had extra little decorative touches that we had not asked for but were welcome additions. The canapes and dinner were truly scrumptious and temptingly presented; everyone commented on how delicious it was. The staff at Ivy Hill, without exception, are faultless. They provided an excellent service from the time we booked until the day itself and should be congratulated. We would like to give special mention to Charlotte, our initial contact, with whom we shared many emails. She was efficient and extremely helpful, keeping us updated on all aspects of the planning process. Jeremy put himself out in many ways and is a credit to you. That brings us to Libby – what a star she is! She contributed a great deal towards making our wedding so happy and joyful but in an unobtrusive way. Every wedding needs a Libby! From the time we first met her Libby provided invaluable advice and suggestions and we felt safe knowing she would be looking after us. There were so many guiding and thoughtful moments that are too numerous to list. Thank you Libby. All in all, if you are considering a wedding venue, think no further than Ivy Hill.

We spent the night here and were very impressed with the marquee and had a great time at the party . The family room we stayed in was clean tidy and comfortable. We then all had breakfast and the staff was very attentive and helpful especially for my daughter needs as she’s gluten free , so we decided to stay on for lunch which was also very nice . I would highly recommend

Spent two nights 21/22Dec my family were all staying here for a wedding nearby, the room No10 stayed in, was warm, very clean and a great comfortable bed, but it was the staff that made this visit so special. Clare on reception who was so welcoming and even carried our luggage up two flights of stairs. Emma who waited on our table at breakfast and seemed quite honestly to do everything and anything you needed to make your stay special, lovely girl. Our fabulous North Carolina waitress, who service was second to none. Henry our barman whom we kept very busy 😂 such a gentleman. The ladies who cleaned the rooms were also so lovely. In all I can’t remember the last time I stayed in a hotel that was so welcoming, warm and cared about its guests as much as these guys. Congratulations and Merry Christmas 🎄

We had a lovely stay! Karen was absolutely amazing I couldn’t fault her customer service, absolutely amazing!!❤️ Chantelle! We are going out to Ibiza from Stansted and Karen has make then night before extra special! Definitely deserves every bit of recognition❤️

Great size room. Advertised as 4star….don’t know in what year that would be…more a 2star! Window cill & wall in bedroom really rotten, dated furniture, all a bit scruffy, had to keep window open as room a bit smelly but then was really noisy through the night with lorry deliveries, extracter fan in bathroom not working so really steamy, cracks in tiles where shower is, rotten door frame in bathroom too. Didn’t complain at time as only staying 2 nights just to sleep - sheets etc nice & clean but pillows not comfortable, old & sunken. Wouldn’t stay again.
