We booked The Towers for a baby shower and can’t praise the food and service enough. We were a large group of 25 and each and every one of us were so happy with the experience. The afternoon tea was a great quality and there was so much of it! It was displayed professionally and we didn’t even have to ask for boxes to take leftovers home as they were provided. Staff were helpful all through the booking process and we were welcomed in early to decorate the tables etc. The dining room itself is wonderful and a great setting for a special occasion. Thank you to all the staff who were a part of our lovely afternoon.

Fantastic experience for a special event

We held my mother's 80th birthday meal here, we had the River Room. From booking to the actual meal  nothing was too much trouble.
The service and the food were excellent,  I can not fault it. 
I would highly recommend The Tower Hotel for a family celebration. 
Well done to all the staff front and back.


Family celebration meal

What lovely people. We were made to feel special. The staff were just the most friendly people we have met. Nothing too much trouble. Reasonable - great food - huge portions - comfy food. Not normally a fan of hotels but compared to Airbnb - this was fantastic value

Tower Hotel - Harwich

We stayed just for one night in the Honeymoon room and I must say the entrance to the reception area was rather grandeur, very clean and loved the chandelier. Alicia was very friendly and welcoming. The room was big and very impressed with the jacuzzi although it had no mood lighting, assuming this was to keep the main bathroom light on to work the extractor fan, a bit too bright for a romantic soak and bubbly. The high ceiling and heavy tied back curtains gave it a very vintage charm. We had a wonderful stay in this very clean room, the only picks would be perhaps the TV could be placed slightly higher incase one wanted to watch anything in bed. Maybe some herbal tea too and a minibar with bottled water. 
The breakfast was bloody good!! Alicia was there again at our service , everything catered for us. We are both vegan and she had even supplied dairy free butter and almond milk for our coffees. What star customer service, very happy with our stay.

First class service

The room cost £83 for a night's stay exc breakfast.  The hotel itself is very grand, nicely preserved and this is reflected in the rooms.  We found the room to be very clean and the bed very comfortable.  The shower is also nice and quite large with good pressure.  The only very minor complaints could be that the furniture is a bit dated, and it did not have one of those no steam mirrors in the bathroom. 

We had breakfast at the hotel for £8.50 and this is on a par with local prices, and you do get tea / coffee and a fruit drink included. 

There is plenty of parking on site and it is an easy slightly downhill walk of say 15 - 20 mins to the half penny pier at the far end of Harwich. 

The staff are very friendly and helpful.  Thank you all. 

Lovely accommodation - Bahshaw Suite will return

We arranged my daughters wedding despite of the Covid restrictions, the organisation and support from the Tower all through the process was without fault.  Communications meant that stress levels were minimised.

Service on the day was first class, the food and setting were really good and everyone enjoyed the day, Thank you

Wonderful family wedding first class service

I came here today for lunch with my bestie and brother. Me and my friend both had Fish and Chips which was delicious. My little brother had sausages and chips which was not on the kids menu, but they cooked them especially for him. For dessert we had chocolate brownie which was also tasty. The service was really good and staff are very friendly, we are quite fussy but nothing was too much trouble. I will be back!!!

Eating out to help out

This is a magnificent building with a grand staircase. The interior spaces such as the bar and restaurant are very comfortable and the exterior seating area and garden excellent.
The staff were very friendly.
The room was a good size but had a couple of niggles. There was no easy height shelf in the bathroom and no shelf at all in the shower. The power socket for the hair dryer was under the dressing table making it both difficult to access and also leaving the power cord too short.

A pleasant stay

My review is late, we stayed here in '21 & wanted to get away from home, somewhere near the sea.
The welcome was great on arrival, we had arrived late, just as the restaurant was closing but the chef agreed to make us some food. It was tasty & reasonably priced. We ate outside in the garden area, lovely outside space.

Our room was big, comfy bed with a spa bath & separate shower, only complaint & not much to be done about it, was that it faced the sun in the morning so the room was baking! A fan was provided but it really needs A/C. No noise from the outside due to secondary glazing so I'd imagine it would be lovely in the winter months.

All staff were excellent, very friendly & accommodating, would stay again.

Lovely building & gardens, great staff

Very warm welcome, very well maintained, spotless, bright and comfy room, wonderful entrance and staircase! Spotless welcoming garden area laden with well kept planting, lovely.  Didn't have breakfast as lack of vegan options, but would stay again if in the area and would recommend.
