Commercial studios to rent in Chelmsford
Waterhouse Business Centre
2 Cromar Way, Chelmsford CM1 2QE
10 mins from city centre
The projector was bright enough to keep the slides and video going and breakfast, coffees and lunch provided kept everyone happy, fed and watered.
The staff at reception were so accommodating and helpful and were extremely welcoming and never missed a beat.
Plenty of parking, good space for a meeting with access to outside without a hassle.
Will look to book this again. Thanks Team 😎
Lots of parking, just need to get a pass from reception.
Spoke to one of the maintenance guys a few times and he was also super chatty and friendly.
Only thing missing seemed to be a communal area for breaks. I couldn't find anywhere to go to have my lunch, apart from benches outside - not ideal in the cold and/or wet.
Otherwise, I have nothing but praise.
Mark @ PSEM Ltd
Any requests we had were dealt with pleasantly and efficiently, they were so willing to help with any small favour we needed.
Mandy in particular was a huge help throughout the 3 days, but everyone went above and beyond to look after us.
The facilities were excellent. Would strongly recommend and we will definitely be back again!!
Thank you
