Stayed for a night for business in the area of Colchester.
The rooms were beautifully laid out and well equipped with alarm clocks that double as wireless chargers, a coffee machine, plenty of storage and air-conditioning. The bed was extremely comfortable! Dare I say I got a better night's sleep than my own bed.
The on site restaurant had amazing food and service, I personally recommend the Flag pie or Flag burger. A fair but reasonable selection of food options of which can be gluten free.
Parking around the back of the property was big enough to fit a 3.5t long wheel based van without issue.
Additionally I forgot to take my charger and had left it in my room and it was posted back to myself so A* for customer service!
Would highly recommend this location to businesses small or large and for those looking to stay near Colchester without paying inner city prices.
Will definitely keep this location in mind if I am ever traveling in the area personally.

We love this place. Had an amazing Sunday lunch here about six months back and was really impressed with everything and everyone, so when we were back in lovely Wivenhoe we based ourselves here for the weekend.
Beautiful people, food and rooms. The perfect place for a short break and really good value. We’ll be back 😎

The staff were all very friendly and made us feel super welcome. The restaurant was great with delicious food and very comprehensive bar. The rooms were modern, clean and cosy, making it very comfortable and relaxing. Hope to be back soon.

Not usually a fan of roast dinners in pubs, which are often not good quality compared with home cooked. I was therefore very happy to be surprised at how good the roast dinner was at this pub and would have it again! :) Staff were also exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Couldn't recommend the hotel or restaurant highly enough. Beautiful decor, clean, modern and comfortable. The staff couldn't have done any more for us, they went above and beyond.
Food amazing too! Try the chicken curry burger, it is to die for!

A pleasant stay at The Flag Inn Wivenhoe. The room was clean and comfy, and the staff came over to show me around. Continental breakfast was included. Wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting Wivenhoe!
Carol Pearson
Room spotlessly clean. Beautiful bed linen and towels. View across the fields from the window. Air con kept the room lovely and cool in the hot weather. Staff friendly and attentive. Food was very good and plentiful.

Our first visit here.
Blown away by the food / decore / service.
Everything.
I was presented with a vegan / vegetarian menu, with about four starters / mains / puddings.
SO nice to have PROPER choices NOT just the one ' option.'
The food was amazing.
Nothing could be improved on.
I hope the staff are able to keep up their high standards & enthusiasm.
Will look forward to returning.

Easily the nicest place to eat and chill in Colchester and Wivenhoe area. Food is always great. A little pricey but worth it. Nice atmosphere and staff are lovely!
Ruth Feakins
Our first visit here for a mid week evening meal...wow super impressed with the food, amazing friendly and helpful staff, lovely decor. We will definitely be back again very soon!

Stayed here for two nights in early July. Could accommodate me at short notice in beautiful room. Great service and friendly staff at check in and breakfast both mornings. Great location for access to essex Uni and colchester with amazing views over the countryside.

I had the roast but wasn't impressed. For £18 I would have expected more on my plate. The Yorkshire pudding was dry and tasteless and the potatoes looked frozen. I would come back and try other dishes on the menu as its a nice place and the staff are great. I also think the pricing of the food could be reviewed.
Nicola Penwill
Just had a roast dinner. Absolutely amazing food. Would definitely recommend. Great service too.
Didn’t stay over but the venue looks fantastic

We stayed at The Flag when visiting friends. Room 8 was a delight to stay in. A boutique hotel vibe, with a comfortable bed and a treat to have a coffee machine in the room. Food was delicious both evenings we dined. Thank you for making us feel so welcome - we'll be back!

Sunday roast: lovely food, generous portions, veg surprisingly delicious and well-seasoned, staff friendly and attentive. Happy to make alcohol-free cocktails on request for my massively pregnant self! They serve great espresso as well (yes, even the decaf). Sticky toffee pudding highly recommended.
And you should check out the size of the onion rings they serve with the burger. Fantastic (although swimming in grease, not that you expect a health food).
Horseradish sauce disappointing, needs to be much spicier!!
Tanith Hutchinson
Lovely food, ambience and drinks. Staff were attentive and friendly, Emma makes amazing cocktails and gave us a couple of recommendations which we loved! Will definitely be back.
Ben Sharpe
My partner and i had dinner here recently and it was fantastic.
We live locally and we couldn't believe the transformation inside from what it used to be like. Very pretty!
Food was lovely and the staff were welcoming and attentive. We will be back.
