Top Ipswich Waterfront Hotel Reviews

Mermaid, Ipswich by Marston's Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Great stopover, the hallway was quite noisy especially in the morning with doors banging, but that was more to do with other guests then the hotel. Also the rooms overlooking Yarmouth Road, had quite alot of traffic noise, so would recommend sleeping with the Air con on or requesting a room on the other side of the complex"

Salthouse Harbour Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful setting"

Holiday Inn Ipswich by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for one night as a family of three. The staff were so nice from arrival to departure. The reception staff were really friendly and helpful and it was a happy and relaxed environment. We also found that the member of staff who greeted you when you were swimming was also a really happy, friendly man - these all made such an impact on our stay. I guess the only thing which would have made our stay better would have been a fridge in the room to keep our drinks cool - but the air conditioning was a dream! We would definitely stay again."

Bridge Guest House

8/10 Good

"Upgraded to a room with ensuite but shower was not working. Still, an upgrade is an upgrade."
