Holiday Inn Express Braintree A welcoming Braintree hotel with free Wi-Fi near Stansted Airport and Chelmsford City Racecourse.

Just a 15 minute drive from Stansted Airport and just less than an hour and a half by train into central London, our hotel offers guests a quiet, comfortable and easy place to completely recharge. A 15 minute drive from Stansted Airport and just over an hour by train from central London, the Holiday Inn Express® Braintree Hotel offers a quiet, comfortable place to rest and recharge on the edge of the English countryside. Keen shoppers will delight in designer brands at Freeport Braintree Mall, and outdoor enthusiasts can hike through Great Notley Country Park. Guests with business in Braintree, nearby Colchester, or Sizewell C up the A12, have a handy base of operations with two fully equipped meeting rooms – though you might prefer to talk shop at the nearby Braintree Golf Club. Less than 10 minutes from the wedding venues of Fennes, Gosfield Hall and Leez Priory, this pet-friendly Braintree hotel is also popular with families visiting Essex on holiday. At this hotel, you can enjoy free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, free parking on-site, and an included Express Start Breakfast buffet. Our cosy, smart guest rooms come with black-out blinds for a peaceful night's rest, while family rooms include a sofa bed for the kids. In the evening, head to the our restaurant for a delicious home-style meal. Chelmsford City Racecourse is two miles away, and when the last horse has passed the post, the Lounge Bar makes a lively spot for drinks.

With the clocks going back this Sunday, we wondered what our teams might do with an extra hour in their day!
We know our Maintenance teams will be putting the hour to good use, whizzing around the hotel and fixing all the clocks that definitely won’t change themselves!
Our friendly Guest Service Assistants will definitely use the time to finally finish the story they started telling a guest three shifts ago!
With an extra hour in the day, our busy chefs might finally get to enjoy a coffee while it’s still hot for once!
Our Leisure teams will plan to spend it in the gym (but actual spend it in the sauna 😉).
And Housekeeping? Hopefully they’ll enjoy a well-earned breather…after all, they can’t make the beds while you’re still in them!

As schools and colleges start back and students begin thinking about their work experience placements, we would love to welcome them to learn about how a hotel runs and the great jobs we have on offer.
A work experience placement is a great opportunity to step behind the scenes, discover the variety of careers available within hospitality and gain valuable experience in a real working environment.
Whether you are a student keen to learn more about a career in hospitality, a parent helping to explore the options or a teacher looking to build connections for your students, we would love to hear from you.
Email [email protected] to register your interest and we will see how we can help. 💚

Hotels are busy, unpredictable places (which is why we love them!). There are early starts, late finishes, last-minute changes and plenty of moments that don’t quite go to plan, but our team keeps everything moving, always looking after our guests and one another along the way.

So today, on National Hotel Employee Day, we simply want to say thank you to every person in our hotel who welcomes our guests, prepares their rooms, cooks and serves their food, keeps our building running and completes the many jobs, seen and unseen, that make a great hotel stay possible.

We know how much hard work goes into making it look effortless, and we’re incredibly grateful for everything you do, every day.

Thank you to all of our Hotel Heroes. 👏
