I enjoy staying at the holiday Inn Ipswich. I can walk to it, is convenient in that respect. I visit because the staff treat guests very well with politeness and courtesy, also they help in any way that they can when you request anything. The swimming pool jacuzzi steam room and sauna are all great , i enjoy using them during my stay. The food is exellent , i particularly enjoy the hand batteted haddock with chips ,it is so delicious . Also the lemon baked Alaska with cornish clotted cream ice cream is just one of the best desserts i have ever tasted. Very clean and comfortable soacious roons with alk that is needed for your stay to be enjoyable My son and daughter in law had their wedding reception here 12 years ago, and at present my grandson has swimming lessons here. It is great to live so close and enjoy this lovely hotel, and all that it has to offer. I would recommend this hotel as excellent, to family ,friends,and anyone who asks about it.

This hotel was clean, tidy and to have the facilities of swimming, steam room, sauna and jacuzzi within the price was awesome. The only negative that I can give is that the room was booked for 3 people and only 2 cups/glasses and condiments given. I am sure I could have gone to reception and ask for more if needed. We just shared. Great place to stay

I very much liked my allocated room as it had a bath in it which was a nice surprise I have a walk in shower at home.The swimming pool ,steam room, sauna, and jacuzzi, are all great and i used them all . I stayed at the holiday inn earlier in the month and really enjoyed the meal that i purchased. However this time i had to send vack a pizza i ordered as it was burtn underneat and i couldn't cut it or bite it . The manager was most helpful ,and he let me order something else , so i ordered the hand battered haddock and chips that i had so enjoyed on my previous visit . My room was so quiet and i had a good nights sleep there. Very comfortable bed , not fond of the pillows. I will bring my own that i am used to on my next stay, (new ones)then wash them when i get home. Over all a lovely hotel with lovely helpful staff, and great facilities . I usually stay on a Sunday ,and i wish a Sunday roast dinner was available . Dont like the starters that are on offer. Would love prawn cocktail ,or a liver pate with fresh crusty bread and salad ( not croutons). I look foward to my next visit. I enjoy the pool etc and the comfort of a lovely very clean room and a comfortable bed

Bad!
Poor Service! Arrived at 8pm with my 14yr old son and 15yr old niece to our triple room with separate beds. 27 degrees outside and on arrival in the room the air conditioning was broken and a fan was circulating the hot air round the room so the hotel clearly knew it was broken. Unbearable heat and unable to stay in it. Spoke to reception and was offered a twin with a z bed which was not fit for a toddlers let alone a teenager, that the hotel had charged as adults for breakfast. After much haggling and refusing to pay towards a 2nd room, ended up putting my 14 son in his own room a way away down the corridor and doing shuttle runs with toiletries.

Tired property, felt surfaces could be wiped down a bit better, door needs painting as chipped, bathroom was clean but small. After breakfast i was locked out of my room, had to go back down to reception to get it sorted, other people were having the same issue, it seems we were automatically checked out after a certain time. Breakfast was good- variety. Okay for a 1 night stay, the property just needs some TLC.

Don’t book here. Tiny rooms and beds
Dont book here! This was the worst hotel in our 3 week journey. The room was tiny. It was sold as sleeps 3 but was a very narrow double bed and a “couch” bed that was not a fold out couch bed it. It was literally a couch with ottoman that was hard as a rock. The bathroom was the size of an airplane bathroom, had to stand over the toilet to open the door. The hot tub was not hot and shutdown at 8pm. Pool didn’t even allow you to jump in. I️ get not diving but jumping? How r kids supposed to have fun? We had the largest room they offer and it was so tiny we could barely open 3 suitcases and walk through.
