The hotel was decent and neat. Staff was very helpful and breakfast was absolutely delicious.
The kitchen closes early so if you’d like dinner, plan ahead.
I knew parking on site was limited but can gain access to public parking only £6 overnight or £10 if parked directly outside the hotel. Just cross over the small bridge, very pretty at night time when lit up. Staff are very helpful and patient. Will like to return to this hotel.
Love staying at this premier inn
The staff are great ‘ if you pushed me on the only negative , the breakfast is always a little chaotic . Nothing against the staff ,they do there best but the hotel is great ..
Booked a stay at the jockey club rooms and also bought tickets at the races.
Parked and left our car at the jockey club rooms car park and caught the shuttle bus to the race course. Returned after our lovely day at the races and checked in. We had a beautiful room overlooking the gardens. The rooms have nice furnishings, very classy. The bathroom was huge. With a large bath with shower and a separate shower and double sinks and huge mirror. Loads of hot water and strong water pressure. Breakfast a very classy affair too. Served in a lovely room. Lots of continental choices and cooked menu. We had yoghurt, fruit compote and granola, juice, toast, pastries, omelette, and smoked haddock. I love the place, its so full of history. I need to go again as i didnt have enough time to take it all in. Can’t wait.
The hotel was overall very good value and certainly worth the stay due to its excellent service, comfortable accommodation, and convenient location. However, the main drawback is the parking situation.
Parking is limited, with only a small number of spaces available across the road and on the nearby one-way street. This can create unnecessary stress when trying to leave a vehicle safely and securely. While this may not be a concern for all guests, for some it can be a significant issue, particularly when staying for several days.
The parking area is also used by non-residents who visit the hotel for drinks or meals, meaning spaces are often occupied by patrons rather than hotel guests. As a result, residents may find themselves repeatedly checking for available spaces when visitors leave, rather than being able to park properly and confidently upon arrival. This uncertainty can detract from an otherwise very positive hotel experience.
Quite a wacky, quirky hotel- which we love! The main hotel is unique and fab, but the rooms are tired and outdated and could be cleaned to a higher standard. The tap water is not drinkable, so more drinking water also needs to be provided and accessible in double and twin rooms- one bottle for two people is not enough. When phoning reception to request two bottles of water, we were still only given one and the empty bottle we had was also weirdly and awkwardly requested and collected at our door first, before we were allowed more water, which was then bought separately and left outside the room? Just a little odd when they have to provide drinking water. A great location hotel though and we actually love the extravagant, crazy style of the main hotel and have been back 3 times and would stay again when in the area for work. You have to see it to believe it!
ゲゲストA great location for beach at Aldeburgh & the little Village of Thorpeness and good access for Southwall and Sutton Hoo. Area is beautiful English countryside. Accommodation is exceptional, clean & spacious with a very accommodating hostess Karen. Fantastic breakfasts. Would choose again if back in the area
