Very good

Wonderful very old building with very helpful friendly staff. A building this old can’t be in perfect condition but they do their best. Very helpful with food when we were a little late arriving.
The room was small and in need of TLC
The cistern was very slow to fill, there were rawlplugs and holes over the headboard, the back of the wardrobe was coming off and dirty marks on the wall below the window

The hotel is full of character and had a good selection of beers. We didn’t eat there as we’d been out during the day and had an early start in the morning.
Staff were helpful and friendly during check in and in the pub area.
Corridor up to the bedroom was small and wonky which was part of the charm of such an old building but just something to be aware of while carrying luggage or being a little infirm. Our room was very small and a bit tired looking. The wardrobe was cheap and the back falling out. The wall lights had been changed so there were gaps in the wallpaper. The new lampshades had been burned by the lightbulbs so was a little bit concerning. The room was very dark and better lighting would certainly have helped with moving around such a small space. The bathroom was tiny - and needed some tlc and updating. The shower pressure wasn’t very good and it quickly got steamed up with nowhere to vent out to.
It was ok for one night.
Nice and helpful staff but the hotel is run down, my room was not very clean, the toilet was leaking, the bathroom needed a good upgrade. It is a shame, 10 years ago it was a very good hotel but today it seems to be run by people who wants the money without investing in their hotel...
I booked this because it was in my corporate price range, it had parking, food and hotels.com advertised it as having air con. One of the hottest days of the year and I am told upon check in, we don’t have air con??!! To be fair reception gave me 2 fans but I was terrified they would catch fire so didn’t leave them on at night. Food was below average and getting out of the car park with all the work vans was tense, a 28 point turn eventually got me out. I wouldn’t stay there again despite the staff being friendly and accommodating.
The White Hart is incredibly charming and in a great, central location in town, close to restaurants and coffee shops. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and were very amenable to helpimg get us fed when we had a late check-in. The food was delicious at dinner and breakfast. Our room was very charming and, like any older building, had its quirks (the floor was very sloped and the water pressure in the shower was pretty low). Overall, the hotel was great and served our purposes well attending a wedding in Coggeshall.
