Short stay

The room was quite warm and the door was sticking on opening and couldn’t be closed without slamming. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was excellent.

Great location and the sea view room we had was lovely with high ceiling and huge windows. The room-darkening curtains kept us cool in spite of the heatwave and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and even our dog was made to feel welcome in the dining room. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon.

Room comfortable and well furnished. Didn’t like the rather heavy duvet - like trying to sleep under a rug. Good cooked breakfast: hard-working staff run off their feet so waiting inevitable. They were helpful and welcoming.

The room looked out on to scaffolding which we were not happy about, also the TV kept loosing the signal, I went down to ask if there was another room and straight away I was found the choice of two other rooms which were more to our liking, The staff in the bar and restaurant were really friendly and very good at their jobs, over all we had a very nice stay.

Breakfast nice. Hotel shabby. Not worth the cost. Wi-Fi doesn’t really work. it’s a perfect location and it could be great but it’s essentially the basic premier inn room. Small double bed. Old bathroom. Tiny Tv. There are better options I think especially for what they are charging

Hotel needs some attention

The staff we dealt with were all lovely, but the building itself is tired and run down. Our bathroom was particularly grim - grouting gone brown, and awful bath grips that were not only horribly stained but very painful to sit on!

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.
