Being named maid of honour is a huge... well... honour. So you need to find somewhere to stay that's easy on the purse and well equipped to meet your bride-to-be's needs. For hens who are looking to Essex for a quality hen party, the Holiday Inn Express, located just outside Colchester, is the perfect base without breaking the bank. Modern rooms with all the essential amenities mean the girls will have everything they need, all just an "Oi oi!" from one of Essex's top party destinations.
The hotel covers all bases with 24-hour reception and a restaurant and bar for pre-drinks or a delicious meal. Rooms are spacious with free WiFi to upload all your group selfies to Instagram, and there are tea and coffee facilities and room service. There's also free parking for hens who may have travelled further afield, and the local train station is under seven miles away.
Essex is a fabulous hen destination, known for its party lifestyle across the county, with Colchester being a hub for bustling bars, pubs and clubs. There's a reason hit TV show TOWIE exists; Essex really does live up to the party loving hype, and you can get right into the heart of it and experience it for yourselves. Why not make your hen night extra special? GoHen can arrange Restaurant Reservations, exclusive Guest List Entry to Colchester's most popular clubs, and transport to take you to and from the hotel.
Why stop there? At GoHen, we have a long list of incredible activities to pair with your hen-tastic night out in Essex. Why not try your hand at Cocktail Mixing (while also trying a few?), or surprise your hens with the epic Bubble Mayhem? Want to know more? Get in touch with a member of our team today and start planning your Essex hen party with a stay at Holiday Inn Express in Colchester.
