Very clean, nicely decorated and very comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was really tasty, plentiful and delicious. My room was spacious and very quiet. I would recommend this hotel for its' location and also the price. Oh I meant to say there is a gym you can use if you are feeling energetic. I... More

Clean,comfortable beds-functional facilities-hanging for suits NOT dresses-no drawers! Do all business-men live out of their suitcases? On the plus side,Tabitha at reception was friendly and intelligent-she noticed my mobility problem and switched us to a room with a walk-in shower without prompting and,even more helpfully arranged for us to have a named traffic cone so we could reserve a disabled...

I though after staying at previous Ramada Hotels I couldn't go wrong. The price for the Hotel was pretty average for Ipswich - if breakfast had been included it would have been better but we knew before we booked it was an additional £10. What really annoyed me was the fact me and my friend had pre booked and paid... More

We stayed on a special offer so our weekend stay was excellent value for money, however If I had paid the standard room rate of £70 this would have been a disappointing stay. The best thing about the hotel is its closeness to the railway, town centre, restaurants and cinema. We did not like the furnishings which are minimalist and... More

This was our first stay here and we'll certainly be back. We MUCH preferred this budget hotel to the other rival establishments available in and around Ipswich. The location is perfect, a couple of minutes from the railway station, a short stroll to Portman Road football ground and a seven minute walk into town. We came by train, so it... More

Lovely staff, clean, well organised hotel. Room was lovely and perfectly functional for the price. Be aware tho, if you can not get in their car park you have to park in an overflow carpark.... which for a female alone can be a little daunting to walk back to the hotel in the dark ! More
