Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located close to shops and the Ipswich city center but can be wet in certain areas. The rooms come with beautiful hot water for tea making facilities but might have unvacuumed carpets. The dining offers grilled food but is served in plastic storage containers. Overall, it provides decent value for money.
The hotel offers beautiful rooms with hot water and tea making facilities, although some carpets were not vacuumed. The service was good, including room service, laundry, and airport shuttle. The location is convenient, close to shopping centers, shops, and attractions in Ipswich, but some areas were wet. The dining experience featured grilled dishes, but some meals were served in plastic storage containers. Overall, a stay here has its ups and downs, but it offers decent value for the money.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were equipped with tea making facilities and had beautiful hot water, but the unvacuumed carpets were a bit of a letdown. The service was top-notch, offering room service, and efficient laundry and airport shuttle options. The location was convenient and close to shops and the event I attended, also near a shopping center for a quick bite. The dining experience wasn't great, serving meals in plastic storage containers, although the Italian grilled meat was tasty. Overall, the facilities were decent, but there is room for improvement.
