The Rose and Crown hotel, which dates back to the 14^th century, is a beautiful oak timber framed building situated in the bustling, historic town of Colchester. 

Lovingly restored over the years the hotel is an ideal base for both the business and leisure traveller.  You can sit back and enjoy a glass of wine in front of a roaring fire in our Tudor bar or go for a lazy walk in the panoramic Constable Country.

Located close to Colchester town centre and the A12, less than an hours drive from Stansted and 40 minutes from the Port of Harwich.  Central London is 45 minutes by train and the idyllic city of Cambridge is an hours drive away.
