About
The Oakland Hotel is a family-run budget hotel located in the Center of the riverside town of South Woodham Ferrers, 15 miles from Southend-on-Sea. Close to the River Crouch, all rooms have private bathrooms. Rooms feature a TV, tea/coffee making facilities, hairdryers and have free WiFi access. Oakland Bar is open daily and also shows live sporting events. On Friday Saturday nights the bar has live music until midnight. Quieter rooms can be provided on request but are subject to availability. Being a town center hotel, we only have a few parking spaces at the rear of the hotel. However, there is a large parking lot opposite the hotel in front of South Woodham police station. The hotel is 15 minutes from South Woodham Ferrers Rail Station, while South Woodham Swimming Pool and the Club Woodham Fitness are only a minutes' walk away. The hotel is within easy reach of A127, A12 and M25. The Hotel has easy access to the Olympic Stadium, with trains from South Woodham Ferrers to Stratford taking 45 minutes.

- Very clean Breakfast was lovely, not cheap ingredients either.Staff were friendly
- Value for money. Breakfast was great.
- The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly, the room had everything it was quite,
Cons -
- The room was quite warm even after turning the radiator off. I should have asked reception for a fan which I’m sure they would have had so my fault
- We arrived on Sunday 15th March 2026. We were given room 12 which was nice and clean. We discovered radiator not working later that night. Next morning told manager who said he would have a look at it. Monday night working which was only night it worked we had booked to Thursday 19 February. We were in our room and around 10.45 pm on Tuesday 17 th someone came to the door and opened it with a key showing us she had a key to room 12. She went back to reception. We did tell the manager the next mornimg and said he would look into it. Not a nice experience and not one I would like to experience on my own
- No lift but not to big a deal made me get my steps in

Great rooms, good showers, tasty breakfast.
Everything fine.
The property was in an excellent location just round the corner from where I needed to be.
I missed breakfast on both days as I had to be at the venue early, I asked if I could get a take away breakfast even if it was just a bacon sandwich & was told no that wasn’t possible so disappointing.
The location is brilliant - I can walk to the train station to commute to London, there is a Leisure Centre round the corner and there are several restaurants within walking distance. The staff are really great and the breakfast was very good - all in all the hotel offers excellent value for money
My room (22) turned out to be next to a "cupboard" which contained the pipework for the heating system. As it was very cold (temperatures dropped below 0) the heating kicked in at 3.30 in the morning, to stop the pipes freezing and as the pipes aren't lagged, the noise meant I hardly slept from 3.30 onwards. i have reported this and hopefully they will sort it for future guests
The staff were very nice, and the breakfast was very good.However, during our stay, there was a rock concert on the property that lasted until midnight.Our room was located directly above where the concert took place.We were informed about the concert beforehand and were told that closing the window would minimize the noise.Unfortunately, that was not the case — the noise was still quite loud till 12 pm
Friendly kind staff briiliant and very helpful
The bar staff breafast staff and good good room goid value for money
Good staff polite nice breakfast I've stayed there a few times now working away really quite when sleeping also really clean aswell
There's nothink bad to say
Great stay. Well equipped room. Good wifi. Breakfast was from 7 which was good. Good breakfast. Lovely staff
Thin walls so could hear the blokes arguing next door for ages but you get thin walls in lots of places
Was a bed for the night, close to the event we where attending.
The room was cold, no heating and no help given when spoke to staff. Shower heat fluctuated, either too hot or too cold. Bed was very firm, not comfortable.
Lovely staff who obviously took pride in their business,our stay was clean comfortable and very quiet,most welcome after a long journey.
Really good value,would highly recommend.
The staff. Had a tricky situation with a young lad that wanted to start trouble. Was delt with by the staff. Apologised to us for the trouble. They had a live band which was excellent. Called the frog on the moon.
Good location, friendly, helpful staff. The room was warm and comfortable. Great breakfast
Parking is a short walk away.

Heating was off unable to turn on
Clean, comfortable room. Friendly staff. Great breakfast.
Parking is not immediately outside, but there is a car park close by.
Location, staff, breakfast and price.
Welcoming, helpful staff, spotlessly clean room (a bonus to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room too) an excellent breakfast and a great bar on the ground floor. Really good value for money too.
We'd probably request a first floor room next time as there are quite a few stairs and corridors to the top floor for my husband who doesn't walk very well.
The service was exceptional and both the lady on reception and gentleman serving breakfast were genuinely wanting to provide a first class service
No freshly brewed coffee…I don’t like granule jar coffee
