Excellent brief stay!
We enjoyed a brief stay at Pentahotel Ipswich. From the moment we arrived, we found the staff to be approachable and very helpful. The rooms were clean, well maintained and comfortable with access to tv and free wi-fi. There was a lovely and inviting bar area with facilities for playing darts, pool, shuffle-board and an old play station - a family friendly vibe. We had a fantastic breakfast with a good choose of food with allergies appropriately catered for. We were impressed with the hotel's efforts in eco-friendliness.

Great stay in lovely hotel
Lovely hotel in a great location. Short walk into town of around 15/20 minutes and a further 5 minutes to the harbour. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were clean. Bar are was really nice and staff were friendly. Whilst parking was limited, we did manage to get a space but did notice that there was parking available nearby. Only recommendation would be that for the price a continental breakfast should be included but this didn’t detract from our stay. In fact we had a lovely breakfast at Bonbon in the town. All in all would stay again and would recommend.

Business Stay
Clean room, bed was comfortable. Parking is an issue if you arrive late. Booking in and check out involves standing at the bar and this can be lengthy when the bar is busy. Breakfast is really good but evening meal options are distinctly average, and way to expensive for the quality offered.
