Top Colchester Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

Radisson Blu Hotel London Stansted Airport

8/10 Good
"Lovely clean bedding and comfortable bed. There was no coffee or tea despite there being a coffee machine and kettle. The room description said there would be bathrobes and slippers (we were in a suite), but there weren't any. The sink in the ensuite bathroom was a bit tired. Generally, the bathroom could do with a light refresh. Friendly staff on check-in."
