The Boarding House

Very old character property in the centre of Halesworth, very friendly helpful staff. Large room, great breakfast. Wish we’d had dinner there.

Tidy the garden, stop the church bells after 11pm.

Excellent evening meal and cooked breakfast. Menu choices were limited. Tyler is a great chef. Tyler the owner was very friendly and helpful. He clearly needs help with this big property to meet the staying guests reasonable expectations.

General state of cleanliness. Untidy, not vacuumed carpets on stairs and dining rooms. Dusty and sticky surfaces on furniture in the bedroom. The owner pointed out the broken toilet seat and water marks on the ceiling in the bedroom. Intererior plants were dead and needed to be removed. Outside areas and common areas were untidy and uncared for. No fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries, cereals etc, which was disappointing for the price of stay.

Had a short stay at this hotel. Very disappointing. first sign was when we arrived and there was no one there. Doors were shut and a note to phone stuck to the doors. Were told to use side entrance past smelly bins and find our room. Room was large with a nice bathroom but all needed a bit of TLC. The breakfast was small and offered no cereals or fruit just cooked food. (did get some cornflakes on request) whilst other items were not available The garden was overgrown and unusable. There was no night staff and the side entrance was left unlocked. This is definitely not a boutique hotel just a hotel in decline. Pity it could be so much better.

Good breakfast

Dirty stairs and small bed

Fantastic hotel with excellency breakfast. Rooms are spacious and clean. Well done to all who work there !

The Host was an excellent chef and all staff most helpful.
