Holiday Inn Colchester

Eight Ash Green, Colchester, Essex

Located in a quiet village just outside the historic town of Colchester, Holiday Inn Colchester offers an attractive rural setting for conferences and meetings for 8-120 guests, and is a good venue for smaller weddings and private celebrations.

The 7 meeting rooms are all located on the ground floor, and have plenty of natural daylight, free high speed wifi and air conditioning. Meeting facilities include projectors, whiteboards, microphones, DVD players and flip charts. Delegate packages start at very reasonable prices and include table refreshments and stationery, snacks, and a choice of lunch options.

The largest room, the Priory Helena can be divided into two separate spaces and in its entirety accommodates 120 delegates in theatre style, 60 in classroom layout or 100 for a reception. Of the two partitioned spaces, The Priory is the larger, seating 70 people in theatre style or 60 for a banquet, whilst the Helena can host a reception or a theatre style event for 50 guests. Accessed from the hotel lounge, the Castle Abbeygate has capacity for a reception for 80 or 70 in theatre style; again, this room can be partitioned into two smaller spaces, providing great scope for two conjoined meeting areas, or for a meeting room with adjoining space for team work or refreshments. For smaller presentations and board meetings, the Constantine seats up to 20 executives, with two syndicate rooms being the perfect choice for interviews.

Rooms can be hired individually or together if you require space for breakout sessions, syndicate meetings or refreshments. Whatever your conferencing needs, an experienced Meetings Organiser will work with you to ensure that all requirements are met, right down to the finest detail.

For overnight delegates, the 110 recently refurbished, air conditioned guest rooms are arranged over two floors and have good sized en suite shower rooms, flatscreen HD TVs, in-house movie packages, complimentary wifi, and 24 hour room service.

Your guests can enjoy an award winning breakfast and a varied menu of classic British and international cuisine in the relaxed atmosphere of Traders Restaurant, bar and lounge, with an outdoor terrace for al fresco dining in the warmer months.

Guests at Holiday Inn Colchester can also take advantage of complimentary access to the Spirit Health & Fitness Club with an indoor heated swimming pool, well equipped gym, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi.

Holiday Inn Colchester has plenty of on-site parking and can be found in the village of Eight Ash Green, within easy reach of the A12.
