Just returned from a weekend break had a wonderful stay. Would definitely recommend this hotel, nothing was too much trouble. Good food. Newly decorated room, ideal location. Enjoyed every part of our stay. South end on sea was clean and well kept. Just a 10 minute walk to the centre and pier, recommend a walk down the pier, it's a... More

We stayed here recently for work as we were filming in the area, and it was brilliant. The staff were really helpful and even let us stay in the bar after closing after a long shoot day! Food was perfect and the beds were so comfy, view was awesome on to the sea! Thank you for everything Camelia :) x

We booked this hotel after reading reviews on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. From my first telephone conversation with Reception to our arrival and helpful staff we were not disappointed. We ate in on the first night and the food and service were excellent, our room was beautifully clean and we overlooked the water, not blue but interesting... More

Due to a traffic jam on the M25 we missed our flight back to Belfast from Southend. At 7.30 we decided to drive into Southend and search for a place to stay the night. The Camelia Hotel was the most appealing hotel from the exterior along the shore so we stopped off and asked for 2 single rooms. The lady... More

We stayed here for 1 night with our 18 month old daughter. We were just staying overnight after a wedding and simply needed somewhere to sleep - but this hotel had so much more. From booking on the phone and being advised about the most suitable room to have a cot in (at no extra charge) to the fantastic service... More

My husband and I were visiting a relative near Southend and booked this hotel very last minute and decided to stay here due to the good reviews. I cannot compliment the owners and their family enough particularly Jamie and Abby (hope I have the names right!) who made sure we had a brilliant stay. We even received a call after... More

We spent one night here whilst visiting friends who live locally. I booked the Camelia due to its location and it representing better value than the big brand chain hotels for short stays. We had a room in the annex, double ensuite for £80 B&B. The car park at the back of the hotel was useful although we did drive... More

We stayed at this hotel for the weekend and found it perfect. Room was spotlessly clean and although we only had breakfast at the hotel the food was lovely. Staff were friendly and helpful, we will stay again
