WELCOME TO
THE RED LION, COLCHESTER

A historical Grade 1 listed building (1465) located in the town centre of historic Colchester. The hotel is one of the oldest inns in East Anglia described as 'a fine example of Tudor England'.

The hotel has excellent transport links to the M11, M25, Stansted Airport, Cambridge and Harwich.

Nearby are well known chain stores and smaller, boutique-style shops. A quiet retreat from the modern world outside, the hotel's Tudor features and warm red and gold fabrics provide a luxurious and relaxing environment. The old Banqueting Hall, which is now the Parliament Restaurant, has a remarkable beamed ceiling. The bedrooms are individually furnished with antiques and have a wealth of original exposed beams and wattle and daub walls.

Please note that there is no car park attached to the hotel and the NCP car park is 5 minutes walk away. Parking will be paid for by the hotel, we suggest that you stop in the loading area and off load your baggage into the hotel.
