4.9 / 5 4.9 / 5 Anonymous on 22/10/2009 (Same sex couple)

Great value for money. Lovely room, everything was clean and tidy. Comfortable, warm and plenty of hot water.

Overall: We had a great weekend break. We walked into Ipswich town centre several times, plenty to see, do and buy! Have talked about going back.  (108556327)

4.1 / 5 4.1 / 5 Anonymous on 06/09/2009 (Group of work colleagues)

Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was nicely furnished. Felt it was good value for money.

No real check-in procedure. Not particularly a problem, just unusual.

Overall: Location of hotel was ten minutes walk from town but was not particularly noisy. We enjoyed our stay.  (108766935)

4.3 / 5 4.3 / 5 suzanne [bridgwater, GB] on 09/06/2009 (Group of adult friends)

The hotel was clean, comfortably furnished and quiet whilst being in a central position for access to the town centre. Friendly staff.

The TV reception was extremely poor. I was a little surprised that there appeared to be no staff on the premises overnight. Consequently there were no bar facilities for guests on their return even at 11pm.

Overall: It was more than adequate for a couple of nights stay but I'd make sure I had a 'night cap' waiting in my room!  (107752893)

2.4 / 5 2.4 / 5 Anonymous on 30/04/2009 (Solo leisure traveller)

Finding somewhere to eat proved hard - nowhere suitable close. No early Breakfast option, referred to nearby cafe which turned out to be shut.

Overall: Adequate for price.  (107612530)

Friendly staff, clean, good sized room, comfortable beds with good linens, convenient location, quiet, easy to make a last minute rezzie on line

TV reception very poor, LOUD bathroom fan

Overall: Overall a good experience  (107353232)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
