Staff were excellent and the breakfast was very nice. A little further away from Portman Road than I thought, but there were good transport options and the staff explained the best way and things worked out really well. A very friendly group of people working here from manager, to reception and bar. Thank you.

We stayed over as we came to see Ed Sheeran at the football stadium. Upon check in, staff were amazing and welcoming. They had gift bags for people attending the concert as well as useful information on how to get there. Couldn’t fault them at all.

Not a good experience at all

Not great. Got there to find out two rooms for two nights had been cancelled / it was reinstated but I had to pay to reinstate the rooms although I had paid via Hotels.com. I was given a room for a colleague who arrived the next day and when he went to his room someone was in it, so that room had been allocated to someone else. This again was sorted by a helpful person on the desk but I need to make sure I haven't been charged twice now and if so praying for it to be refunded.
