10/10 Excellent

I had a really pleasant stay at The Ship. The room was compact but spotless and well-organised, with a comfy single bed, en-suite bathroom, TV, and a side cabinet stocked with tea, coffee, and biscuits—such a thoughtful touch. It had been a long time since I’d slept in a single bed, but it was surprisingly comfortable and perfect for a good night’s rest. I’d definitely stay again and would recommend it to other travellers looking for a clean, cosy spot with all the essentials.
Ama, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Clean comfortable room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food in pub was discounted slightly for guests. There were a fair few stairs and it was a tad noisy outside, however it suited our overnight stay and we would stay there again.
Carol, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved the en suite room, thank you!
Siobhan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely room above a very nice pub in a great location, just 5 minutes walk from Chelmsford station. Nothing really to dislike for the price.

Colin, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very good value and service. Beware if you are relying on satnav to locate. Because of busgates it took a bit of finding. Council pay and display parking nearby but overnight only to 5am however street parking available after 6pm.

Good for a business stay

Lovely, although parking is in public car oark next door
Kelly, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Conveniently located. Room basic but comfy. Main criticism is that the bathroom was much too hot. I nearly burnt my hand when I accidentally touched the heated towel rail while reaching for the toilet paper. I would have preferred not to have had to climb three flights of stairs to the room. Especially as there is no handrail on upper level.

10/10 Excellent

It's a nice place to stay. Rooms are very nice and tidy. Also., brilliant pub at ground floor 👍❗
Robertas, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was modern, impeccably maintained, and spotlessly clean, which exceeded my expectations. A delightful surprise was the espresso machine in the room—such a thoughtful touch! I enjoyed my short stay and would happily return in the future.

One Night Stay.

Perfectly adequate for a one night stay. But, unless one knows the area, getting to it via Sat Nav is challenging, and the local parking is a nightmare!:.
