“A stylish and friendly small hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

We stayed recently with our three month old. The weather was terrible but we liked Southwold very much and hugely enjoyed staying at Sutherland House. The price for rooms (or suite as we had) is quite high, but we both thought it was worth it. The rooms were both chic and very comfortable. What stood out most was the attitude of staff who were very friendly and helpful. One of the many pluses was that we could bring the baby down for dinner. The hotel puts families eating with babies or children in a different room. Some might think that excluding but actually it meant we didn't feel self-conscious. And it was a nice touch that they lit the fire just for us in that room. Breakfast also excellent.

“The place to go in Southwold”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

We booked for dinner and then the snow came down so requested lunch instead, the staff could not have been more accommodating. Lunch was superb, there were 6 0f us and everyone ordered different dishes and some asked for slight variations. As evrything is cooked from fresh these were all very willingly accommodated. Food was very good and a very jolly lunch was had by all. Staff were superb and I can't wait to go back again.

“A very posh home from home ....... with incredibly welcoming and helpful staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

We stayed at Sutherland House Hotel in February 2012, only arriving home today. We are already planning the return trip ! The bedrooms are very large and comfortable and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, who remain discretely hidden until needed. Breakfast was included, and was perfectly cooked to order, and served between 9 and 10am; allowing time for an extra hour in bed ! (other hotels take note). The location of the Adnams brewery just at the end of the road was an added advantage to my beer obsessed fiancée.

“A great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

This was clearly one of the best places we have stayed in - a fantastic room and food that was probably the most delicious we have had in a long time. We will certainly be back. In fact, it was so good, I've put a longer review on the restaurant page.

Every June visit I Southwold with a group of friends and inevitably elect Sutherland House restaurant for dinner which has to be said is always first class with good wines and service. Look forward to my next visit in June. Highly recommended.
