No one on reception or bar on arrival. Slow service need more staff. Rooms ok but need some tlc, mirror in wrong place, no plug sockets near bed. Poor drinks tray in room. Breakfast is acceptable but not great.

I'd have liked a grab rail on the wall of the shower/bath since as an old person fear of falling is a constant worry.

Perfect location in Aldeburgh Fantastic seafront location, the hotel is a slight maze of stairs and corridors, but there is a lift. Our room was a good size, comfortable, quiet and very clean. Good restaurant and bar with friendly staff. We will return.

Excellent hotel. Friendly efficient and the hotel is clean and quiet. Had dinner here last night and the food is first class, fresh and tasty. Highly recommended

Nice room, very clean but on the smaller end on size of room. Early morning noise of beer barrels being delivered or returned was a nuisance. Didn’t eat evening meals here as vegetarian options on the menu we saw were minimal. Overall, I would recommend but select a sea view rather than the town view.

Second stay at this hotel. Staff were all very nice. Public areas of the hotel were really nice but thought the room looked a little tired. Nice bar and the Brasserie looked nice although we didn’t have dinner there. The breakfast though was good. Right on the sea front, pubs nearby, short walk to the high street with some nice shops, cafes and eateries.

Excellent value and great location. Do not opt out of the breakfast. It is fantastic and you’ll pay more and get less trying to find something as good outside

Nice hotel, small room Nice hotel, very clean, with good service. Room was a bit on the small side considering the price.
