Great value four star hotel

As a semi-retired travel writer and broadcaster, I have stayed in many top-end hotels all round the world. So many of them, while really luxurious, lack personality in both appearance and culture This establishment, while admittedly a bit tired around the edges, is quite the reverse. The staff are, without exception, friendly, helpful and keen to do whatever they can to assist. The lounge area is what makes the Ipswich B&B stand out. It is like a comfortable club and oozes charm. I just hope that the forthcoming refurbishment and introduction of the B&B corporate look will not destroy the very thing that gives this hotel its charm and personality. By the time I move into my new home, I will have been here for over two months. It is just sad that there appears to be an almost complete disconnect between the B&B Club member scheme and actual bookings. None of the points or offers linked to my reservations have appeared on my account. Many of the staff lack B&B black uniforms and wear their own clothing to fit in. Not fair to them and easily sorted. It is going to take some time for the B&B brand to be accepted as being high-end in the UK. B&B? It definitely is not!

Hotelier response

Dear Michael S., Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts regarding your recent stay at our hotel. We are delighted to hear that you found value in our establishment and appreciated the charm and personality that our staff bring to the experience. It is encouraging to know that our lounge area resonated with you, as we strive to create a welcoming atmosphere for all our guests. We acknowledge your concerns regarding the B&B Club member scheme and its integration with bookings. Your feedback is crucial, and we will ensure it is directed to the appropriate team for review. Additionally, we appreciate your comments about staff uniforms; we aim to maintain a cohesive appearance that reflects our brand. We appreciate your loyalty and hope your upcoming refurbishment enhances the unique character of our hotel, rather than diminishes it. Thank you once again for your insights, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Best regards, B&B HOTEL Ipswich

Convenient, comfortable and friendly.

Excellently located for both the train station and Portman Road football ground. Very welcoming and comfortable. And a spacious and well-appointed bar/restaurant which doesn't shut-up-shop at 11pm! Any football fan planning a stay-over in Ipswich should consider looking no further than the B&B Hotel.

Hotelier response

Dear Dave B., Thank you for your wonderful feedback regarding your recent stay. We are delighted to hear that you found our location convenient and our facilities welcoming. Your kind words motivate us to continue providing excellent service to all our guests. Best regards, B&B HOTEL Ipswich

Remarkable value for a property of this quality

The staff are friendly, helpful and keen to provide an excellent service. My main concern is the brand name and whether it will work in the UK. When I was looking for a place to stay while I house hunted in the area and the 'B&B Hotel came up on Booking.com, I thought I was about to stay in some sort of hostel, especially as the property is very close to the railway station! The reality is completely different. Yes, the imminent refurbishment is much needed to bring the rooms up to four-star standard. I just hope that they don't lose the club atmosphere of the lounge area, with its' eclectic and enormous collection of books. A special mention of the breakfast, which is as good as I have experienced in a UK hotel in many a long year. If all goes to plan, I will have been here for over six weeks by the time I move into my new property and I could not have found a better 'home from home'. Thankyou.

Great hotel

I stayed here for nearly two weeks. It's a great hotel for the price. The pictures on booking.com don't do it justice. Big clean rooms, the staff are very helpful, and has a gym on the 1st floor would 100% book again
