We enjoyed a lovely quiet couple's getaway while we went to the Ed Sheeran concert in Ipswich. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel was very quiet and relaxing. The town centre is in walking distance and has some really nice and reasonably priced cafes. There is a short walk to a pebble beach and beautiful gardens.

The property is in the process of a major refurbishment. Whilst the dining facilities were not yet fully operational the potential looks fantastic.

We stayed here for two nights and we were astounded how good the hotel was for the price that we paid. The room was ample size, spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed. The staff were all really friendly and welcoming. The food (both breakfast and dinner) were excellent and great value for money. We have already booked to return next year. Particular praise must go to the lady (I don't know her name) that served behind the bar, served the dinners and worked in the breakfast room in the morning. She was really friendly and she didn't stop working. Whatever they are paying her, it's not enough !

Room was basic but clean however only a small window to open for fresh air and luckily it has cooled down but it was still a warm room. There was a fan in the room but the cable wasn’t very long and so at night it was pointless having it on in bed. Great location and lovely old building with a lot of potential. For the price we paid no complaints but had we paid £80 plus I would have had issues. Would we stay again, yes but not in the summer as it would have been way too uncomfortable.

An enjoyable stay - hotel clearly mid renovation and some rooms in much better shape than others. Great, convenient location for town and a wander to the beach . Would love to stay again in a few months time once renovations are complete.

Visible improvements are being made & are still ongoing. But with that in mind there are few minor issues that leave an impression. My superior room (Room 213) wasn’t that big & torn wallpaper & stained lampshade gave it a bit of an unloved feel. Also for whatever reason the WiFi in the room was slow slow quick quick slow then non existent. Frustrating & when mentioned (not complained) I was reminded it was free. If possible I would have paid for better ! Oh and could someone tidy the car park please as a first impression it’s not good. I visit the hotel often over the past 10 years but still no loyalty or reward scheme so they have no clue whether it’s your first visit or 25th. Still love the building and location.

The property was undergoing a refurbishment during our visit so I can see that there will be improvements to the decor in the future, the room I stayed in 125 was in great condition and seemed to be one of the newer rooms, there was no evening dining on site during our stay due to kitchen refitting, we were provided with plates and cutlery for our takeaway, the staff were always attentive and helpful during our stay so I would return to the hotel in the future if in the area and would like to see the hotel after the refurbishment.

Things got off to a bad start - there was a problem with the booking, Expedia failed to sort it, we ended up in a room that was below the standard we booked and overall our expectations were not met. The hotel put all of the blame on Expedia and said they often have problems with Expedia bookings. Some things to note: None of the superior double rooms have a bathtub (contrary to the room description) and the room we were offered (202) was very small, having only a 4ft. 6in bed. and a shower cubicle. The room was certainly not big enough to fit in the sofa that was depicted in the photos on the room description. So to get a bathtub we had to accept a standard double room and our request for a refund of the price difference was refused. The dinner menu is a bit limited and basic, but okay if you are hungry and a bit tired to go out to get supper. Reviews of the buffet breakfast put us off trying it. There are some cafes nearby that serve good coffee.
