The Mill Hotel has now closed. What was the Mill has now become apartments possible sadly as there are now too many apartments in Colchester. I did stay here some years ago and it was very good the rooms were noisy from people above but the food was very good.

The Mill Hotel is a great place, but sadly, to stay there, you will either need to know somebody who lives there, or buy one of the flats which it has now become. No idea where HTR2 stayed, because this place has not been a hotel for several years!
