Best Western Ipswich Hotel

Stayed for two nights for a family wedding. Yes the hotel is tired, and sadly no Aircon last weekend 🥵 but we did have a fan. Room was really big, clean and tidy. I did move the tea tray to the opposite side so it was near the plug. Would be nice if there was Yorkshire tea bags in the room like in the breakfast buffet. Bed very comfortable, don't know about the pillows I took my own. Breakfast was lovely everything you could want. Two things though, please separate the bacon when you cook it, the middle slices weren't very warm. Also the handles on the tongs etc get very very hot. The bathroom does need some TLC, shower not very powerful, toilet flush needs some attention and the sink surround definitely needs to be replaced. We found the staff very friendly and helpful ordering taxi's for our party. Sadly the garden looked a bit unloved, and the front does need a sweep. It does have a gym and a pool which non of us realised.My husband has been in touch with the owner and she has explained the reason, very sad. We were in room 106. Would we stay again yes. Is it the Ritz no but for around £120 odd for 2 people for 2 nights bed and breakfast, you really can't grumble.

Room size

Hotel looks shabby

Given option to stay at different location that was closer to the Norfolk show we attended

Location due to lots of road works as we were attending the Norfolk dhow

The hotel was comfy, clean and big. We were heading to Copdock Hall for an event so this was the best location.

Ideal location to wedding venue at Copdock Good food

Hottest day of the year no fans in bar or restaurant no aircon

Comfortable room.Lady on reception (who also seemed to do everything else) was pleasant and tried to be helpful.

The building was very run down with peeling paint and scruffy grounds. We wanted to eat at the hotel as we’d had a long journey but they had nothing vegetarian on the menu as it was a limited menu on a Sunday, so we had to go into Ipswich for dinner.

Had a good gym for fitness Breakfast

Water pressure in the shower virtually non existent

The only thing I can say that I liked was the staff who were really friendly

The hotel is really tired to do with a makeover. While the room itself was clean, it certainly hasn’t had a deep clean for a very long time. Everything was very old worn out and really could do with a refresh and bought up to the 20th 26th century not 1980s

We were greeted by a lovely staff member, Aurora who I’d like to give a special mention to. We were staying for a wedding and she upgraded us for free as we needed a bigger room. Perfect stay and the breakfast was good too!

Location

Windows were rotten thought glass was going to fall out when we opened it . Shower was useless no pressure at all . Whole bathroom needed replacing. Man who checked us in didn’t have a clue what he was doing . Cooked breakfast was a bit sparse.
