The room was clean and tidy and a good size. The price was excellent. There was spilled paint on the floor outside the door of my room which was not very inviting, but apart from that everything else was good.

Had to pay £2.50 per night extra for car parking in hotel residents area which was dirty and broken glass laying about. The room was very spacious, plenty of furniture but rather dated. No mirror in the bathroom which was a bit odd as it had a shaver point. Had to go into the hallway to use mirror to remove makeup or shave.

Didn’t like you fact you had to pay extra for parking, that should have been included in the room! The Indian food was excellent but don’t serve alcohol. And breakfast wasn’t a proper breakfast like a hotel should be, (breakfast on the go) after asking staff about the breakfast we got told to come down in the morning and collect it before we go, so we did at 10:30 but was told we missed breakfast it stopped at 10! It was only a toastie and a drink! Bed was very comfortable and clean and room we very quiet! But need up dating and smelt very musky in the room

The first time you stay with them they put you in a lovely big and refurbished room and anytime after that they stick you in a dirty old fashioned tiny room. Tried to complain to reception and they couldn’t have cared less and told me to take it up with Expedia. Avoid at all costs, not clean, safe or even anyone around to help. DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN

Decided to stay at property due to a passing visit and the pictures on the site looked really good for the price given. However, during check in we couldnt check in due to the machine we were using not working, when speaking to staff they knew it was playing up.....so why not put a out of order sign on the device. The room is very run down, paint chipped, old wardrobe doors, very low pressure in the shower, mastic still stuck to the door and walls / doors are thin. If you are a light sleeper i would not recommend staying here but if you want a cheap / quick stay then great. Positives, nice refirbuished bathroom but thats about it

Checking in process was quite easy as it is just a terminal. Why do you have to pay for parking? Room reasonably clean, but quite old furniture. Bathroom was clean and had been updated..BUT... Shower was USELESS...no more than a slow spray so couldn't really wash properly. A member of staff actually let themselves into my room whilst i was getting ready to go out.. I am a male , but what if i was a female.( totally unacceptable) The lady on reception was lovely and extremely helpful We spoke to the MANAGER (Shaun) in the morning on checking out, he was sitting and didn't even bother to get up out of his seat to talk to us, he didn't actually say a word, no apology, nothing, he just sat there...Don't think he has any management or customer care skills.. I do not recommend this Hotel They need to up their game !!! One very disappointed traveller

Booked through Expedia. Check in from 3pm , we arrived at 3.05pm. Reception not staffed until 4.30pm , self check in on a computer screen. However our confirmation number from Expedia was not recognised on the computer. We had to go away and come back at 4.30pm when reception was staffed. Turns out it’s a new booking in system and we should have received an email from the hotel itself , which we didn’t. We literally dropped our bags into our room and left to go to a friends dinner party. Upon returning a little worse for wear at 1am we discovered an extremely annoying problem with our room (206). Every 20 seconds some sort of motor or pump would automatically switch on for 10 seconds then stop , on off on off all night long. I’ve recorded the noise from the bed on my phone. Don’t think I can upload it to this review. Other niggly issues as well , but I’ll leave it at that. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I’d stay at the New Chichester Hotel again.

It’s a good size room. It’s a good place to stay when you are working away. 13-15 minutes drive to Basildon city centre. In a nice quiet location. Hot shower very slow probably needs more pressure on hot water. Sometimes the cleaner make your bed up but don’t clean your coffee cups and not clean the bathroom haha. Sometimes no cleaning service and the rubbish you left outside your door in the morning it’s still be there when you come back at night lol. I’m not complaining but I hope my comment will help improve this hotel. Parking should be free for guests as it is out of town location. Bazaan restaurant, great food. No alcohol which is understandable in respect of religion but not serving tap water is disappointing. I ordered a mocktail but I want to drink a glass of water after the food and sweet cocktail but I was told they don’t serve tap water, you can only buy a small bottle of water for £2. I will be happy to book this hotel again but also hoping to see an improvement of there services.

Beds not comfortable. Parking chargeable although nothing near the property. No signage about charges. The continental breakfast was dire! Restaurant caused very strong smells to permeate the rooms that come off the courtyard. Not enough supplies of tea and uht milk. Clean but decor very dated and tired. Usable for a cheap stay although price changes almost daily. Feel that £50 should be the maximum for this property.
