1. The Cross Keys

Saffron Walden

"An older property that will be considered characterful or dated depending on your viewpoint. I enjoyed it including the narrow stairs and corridors, and the historic nature of the room, which was not lacking for the usual amenities. I had an excellent dinner and the Full English Breakfast was all you could wish for. The staff were attentive and friendly. It is a short walk from the 24 hr public car park and is in the centre of town."

10/10 Excellent

"Really lovely stay! The hotel did exactly what we needed. The late food was really helpful, the beds were comfy, and the food was tasty. I also accidentally left my cuddly toy behind, and the staff found it for me and kindly kept it safe until I was able to come back and collect it. That was really appreciated! Overall, a very useful and comfortable stay, with helpful and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend!"
