Lovely character hotel.

Staff are very friendly, food is very good and reasonably priced. The building is lovely and full of character, however the rooms are simply decorated. The location is excellent. Unfortunately, there were no parking spaces when we arrived in the afternoon so we had to park down the street, but parking is free in Long Melford so this wasn't a problem.

Wonderful old hotel

Full of charm and character, good food reasonably priced, the only negative was noise from adjoining rooms probably due to the oldness of the building.

Bring your ear plugs

The hotel is on a busy high street and the secondary glazing isn’t sealed. Hopefully they’ll sort out the banging kitchen door soon, avoid a room near the kitchen until then…

Poor

Check in was easy and friendly member of staff. Room was like an oven with no way to turn off radiator. Window only cracked open. Noise throughout night with a possible freezer kicking on and off. Bathroom door did not close. Evening restaurant bar staff terrible I ended up walking to the crown for food and a drink where service and staff were excellent.

Nice people. Horrible place

When i arrived the reception greeting was good. I got moved from a single to a double. The room was nice but very dated, as was the whole building. On checking out i was charged for breakfast. I explained that on the booking with Hotels.com the stsy was "breakfast included " but insisted that it was room only. I wasn't happy with this but they insisted i paid for breakfast. Not happy about this. Overall i wont stay there again.

Update required

Hotel needs a bit of TLC painting in need of, plus towel rad didn't work nor the fan and shower difficult to use. Furniture dated reported to sue on the reseption and was informed that this has been reported a long time and was going to have a full refurb but the money has ran out.

The staff were uniformly very helpful. The food was good enough, but not excellent. The room, in the newer part of the building, would've been fine, but we stayed during hot weather and the room was hell at night, even with the windows fully open 👿 Just awful; really, really horrible. I guess the window catches the sun in the afternoon and evening, but we couldn't get to sleep until five in the morning the room temperature just didn't drop. A fan, with moving louvre, was provided, but it didn't do much to alleviate the insane oven effect. Top quality insulation apparently 😆 I'd happily stay at another time of year, but never again in hot weather. Avoid if temperatures are >27°C in the afternoon in June. A minor niggle: the shower is constrained to the width of the narrow bath, and felt cramped.
