Park Inn by Radisson Palace

Excellent location. Nice reception, bar and breakfast area. We had a room on level 3 with a balcony that we could sit out on - lovely! Aircon doesn’t work well in the rooms so being able to open the door and have the fan on was very helpful. Good that the electricity in the room worked without having to stick the card in the wall. Lovely staff.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Was able to give us an adapted room as I’m a wheelchair user, even though the room wasn’t available on Booking.com. Fantastic views and very comfortable rooms.

My room was very spacious with all the basic requirements for a short stay, the bed was reasonably comfortable & a few more pillows would have been suitable for a better night's sleep. The bathroom is very well designed & both the bath as well as the shower are spacious when used, thought a slip mat would be useful as a precaution. The t.v has a wide selection of choices, but would often be interrupted by signal disruption which would disturb viewing. I included breakfast during my stay & found the choice of dishes very commendable, the staff would be constantly trying to replenish dishes that are popular & would be asking quests if they required any specific requirements. On a few nights I had dinner, I found it very tasty & though the choices may seem limited it is suitable for long weekends, the staff where extremely friendly & would be glad to assist when required but did not intrude when you needed privacy.

I took the train and walked from Southend Central - about 10 minutes to reach the hotel. When I left I took the Southend Victoria, about a 15 minute walk. Front desk staff were friendly and efficient. I had a large room on the top floor overlooking the sea, pier, and amusement park. There was a kettle plus tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. Air conditioning worked fine, but at some point when it's on high fan after a set amount of time it auto goes to the low fan setting. Hotel is in a great location, very close to many cafes, shops, amusements, and seaside walks. Liked the lemon water, fruit, and candies available in the lobby.

This was an alternative hotel to what we originally booked at short notice, and so glad the other hotel messed up (wns south end) as we Really loved this hotel, Tthe friendly welcoming at this hotel, and jokes aswell. Its nice to recieve a welcome from normal persons behind the reception desk. And not some snotty receptionist. We stayed in the superior room. And it was lovely. Very big indeed. Was clean, all the items we needed. Private Balcony was lovely overlooking the adventure island. This was not 5star. For the price we paid it meet all our needs and more and a lovely night was had. Literally on the door step of all the fun for arcades ect The superior rooms are the rooms to the side of the building shown in the picture. Will defiantly be booking again.
