Lovely old pub right next to Chelmsford rail and bus stations. Very welcoming bar staff. Rooms are really nicely decorated with tea and coffee making and separate secure access. Really great value and centrally located for all Chelmsford has to offer.

I had a really pleasant stay at The Ship. The room was compact but spotless and well-organised, with a comfy single bed, en-suite bathroom, TV, and a side cabinet stocked with tea, coffee, and biscuits—such a thoughtful touch. It had been a long time since I’d slept in a single bed, but it was surprisingly comfortable and perfect for a good night’s rest. I’d definitely stay again and would recommend it to other travellers looking for a clean, cosy spot with all the essentials.

Lovely room above a very nice pub in a great location, just 5 minutes walk from Chelmsford station. Nothing really to dislike for the price.

Brilliant location for city center. The room was spotless, stocked with a lovely coffee machine, water and biscuits. Gorgeous shampoo and shower gel. The bed and pillows were soooo comfy. The pub had a good vibe and the food was lovely. Honestly couldn’t fault it!

Very good value and service. Beware if you are relying on satnav to locate. Because of busgates it took a bit of finding. Council pay and display parking nearby but overnight only to 5am however street parking available after 6pm.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was modern, impeccably maintained, and spotlessly clean, which exceeded my expectations. A delightful surprise was the espresso machine in the room—such a thoughtful touch! I enjoyed my short stay and would happily return in the future.

The propert was lovely, our room was modern and up to date. The beds and pillows were so comfortable and clean! The bathroom was so lovely and clean. I loved that you didnt have to go through the pub to get to the rooms although there was a walkway into the pub at the bottom of the steps if you wished too. Staff were friendly and very helpful.

Laura • Couple Trip

When we arrived the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room we had was en-suite and very clean. The tea and coffee facilities were great (proper coffee machine in the room). The bed was really comfortable, which made for a good nights sleep. The only thing I would recommend to those using a satnav or maps to find it would be, put the actual address in not just the postcode as ours took us to a different location. Other than that would highly recommend The Ship!!
