George Hotel Colchester

About the venue

The George Hotel is a beautiful 500 year old coaching inn located in the heart of the town centre, ideally suited for both business and leisure guests.

The deep sense of history is palpable when you enter The George. It is, perhaps, most famous for its extensive medieval cellars, preserved behind glass, with visible remnants of Roman roads that once ran through the town and even the ashes left by the fires of Queen Boudicca’s rampage in AD60, when she burned Colchester to the ground. Our versatile function rooms are extremely well lit by natural daylight. The elegant Tudor Room provides theatre style seating for up to 50 guests, with its own private bar. The ground floor room leads out to the Courtyard area of the hotel. The County Suite, which is the larger of the two function rooms, can accommodate theatre style seating of up to 70 guests or dinner dances for 60. Both of our function rooms include elegant décor and state of the art screening and I.T solutions Delegates can dine in style in the Courtyard Brasserie or we can serve refreshments in your room, from fresh pastries to hot/cold buffet lunch, together with teas and coffees. Our skilled Banqueting & Events Coordinator will liaise with all the relevant personnel to ensure the smooth running of your event. Delegates who wish to stay overnight can enjoy one of our 47 en-suite rooms, with special room rates including Full English and Continental Breakfast. For those with more modest requirements the Courtyard Brasserie and Lounge Bar make a great spot for a breakfast meeting or business lunch.
