Convenient pit stop
Very pleasant 2 night stay. Didn’t find the bed very comfortable. Had no housekeeping on the second day, although someone had obviously been in the room as we had another bottle of water. Nice powerful shower and lovely white fluffy towels Ate in the restaurant on both nights, which was fine and very convenient..

Perfect country escape
An exceptional experience - super friendly and helpful staff, gorgeous breakfast made with high quality local ingredients all in a beautiful country-pub settling. The room is fresh and bright with lovely free toiletries and bottled water and tea and coffee. Modern but cosy. A perfect escape and with Southwold 10 minutes away by car.

We liked the brightness, spaciousness & cleanliness of the room. The breakfast was excellent. Local produce of high quality was served. Perfect bread and delicious coffee.Evening meals also very good although a little expensive. The bathroom decor and shower needed attention. We would definitely stay there again.

Your site is wrong. The address misses the village where hotel is and post code navigation takes you to wrong location. Also the phone number for hotel on your site is wrong also! Poor service from you not the hotel which was great

Amazing find just 10 minutes from Southwold!
We had a lovely stay at the Five Bells Inn. The family room was comfortable, clean and nicely furnished with plenty of room for 4 people and a dog. The pub is cosy and we had great evening meals on both nights we stayed there. It was amazing value and included breakfast (which was delicious). If you want to be close to the Suffolk coast but want to avoid Southwold prices, then this is a great find :)

Worst Hotel
I stay at hotels all year round due to my work. This is the worst hotel that i have stayed in. I stayed for 4 nights. 1st Night the room was freezing and the boiler was playing up. 2nd morning breakfast not served until 8am which is not ideal as i had to be at a place of work for 9am. I went into breakfast at 8am and ordered the kippers. At 8.25 am i asked if the breakfast was ready and the young lad made enquiries and returned to tell me that the chef hadn't heard him. I left for work and had to grab a banana from a nearby shop. Morning three, no hot water and got the kippers on this occasion(big mistake) I wouldn't feed them to my dog. Night 4 no heating again. Avoid Avoid Avoid.

Room 3. Spacious and comfortable furniture from IKEA. Don’t need to go through the pub to access these rooms and can park close. Staff are cheerful and pleasant. The food fine both evening and breakfast. Didn’t like that room 2 bathroom shares the wall with Room 3 and was noisy when used by the guest
