Friendly staff and okay accommodation

Staff were very friendly but service at breakfast could be improved. Breakfast was good. Accommodation a little tired but clean and comfortable.

4/10 Fair

Room very nicely renovated but spoilt by a really grubby balcony (which we had paid extra for) with overflowing ashtray on the table. Service very friendly but very odd hours of service - we had been told food served until 8.00 pm, but when we tried to order at 7.30 the manager said we were too late! She kindly managed to get the chef to provide a course but we felt rushed. In the morning despite notice on the door saying breakfast served at 8.30 we got down to the dining room to find no one around, same member of staff was on shift starting at 8.30 and said breakfast not served until

Great location, great staff, great breakfast.
Brecht, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We have stayed at The Victory three times now, it is very convenient if you want to go out for food around West Mersea and don't want to worry about driving. Plus it is close to the seafront walk of West Mersea Beach. Rooms are very clean, plus you have the advantage that they are part of a pub, therefore the ability to step down for a drink or food at any point.

Dealt with very well

There was a problem with a leak in the bathroom and the hotel gave us a full refund and has offered us a free nights stay. Can’t ask for me than that. Great staff, great service and once the problem is fixed very nice room. Best regards David Wolff

A small victory

Loved the position, had a balcony overlooking the estuary. Staff very friendly. Needs extra attention to cleanliness. Shower drain not cleaned, water collected in the tray couldn't run out quick enough. Tea tray not clean and cobwebs above the bed.

Great for a walking trip around the island.

Excellent spacious room with wonderful estuary views. Hotel is really well located for walks around the island and close enough to walk into town too.
Huw, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A great one night stay.

We have stayed her before and we will stay again. A lovely location by the sea. Very efficient and friendly staff. A few issues with room (no.5), water not draining from bath, mirror light not working. I know maintenance will be sorting these out soon, probably already sorted! Wonderful cooked breakfast in the morning.

Love staying at The Victory. Always a warm welcome. The room was amazing with a balcony. Very comfortable bed with a bamboo mattress. Nice, deep bath.
sarah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value for money

We had room 9 which had an upstairs with twin beds as well as the double room down stairs. Plenty of space for just my friend and I. Beds very comfy, and we loved having our own outside space at the back. We couldn't put our finger on what the slight odour was in the room, but it didn't spoil our stay, so we didn't report it. The breakfast was absolutely gorgeous! as was our meal the night before. This place is very good value for money, and I would stay here again.

It was a good stay eventually after the upset of being told they were serving food and the kitchen never opened. Could do with some staff training, and customer service.
