Best Western Ipswich Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, great room, great value , great location."

St Nicholas Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location was great with a lot surrounding activities. The room size was really good and I really appreciated the balcony"

Wivenhoe House Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel has a great location just outside Colchester in the University Campus. Lovely staff - very friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast, but limited dinner options for the vegetarian /vegans. Our room in the old part of the hotel was nicely decorated but had an odd layout and an uncomfortable bed. I was told the new wing of the hotel is better. Notwithstanding that, it was a good stay and great value for money."

Orwell Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place to stay-granted not the most luxurious hotel you’ll ever stay in but what it lacks here is made up for by the friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Felixstowe for a night away"
