Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was tastefully furnished which reflected its historical past. There was a spacious sitting room for use by guests and a kitchen equipped for the heating and simple cooking of meals. The tasty breakfasts were cooked to order with locally sourced ingredients. There was a small but pleasant garden with suitable seating areas. The staff were always welcoming, helpful and friendly. It was an easy 12 minute walk into the cathedral area and town. We had a very comfortable stay although we would have preferred one of the slightly bigger rooms had one been available. I should like to have revisited with a friend but there are no twin rooms at the property.

Great location and excellent breakfast

I booked this hotel as a treat for my mother and father. I just spoke to my Dad. He said the hotel was great. Very accessible, nice room, easy check-in, and only a short walk into town. On top of that, he said the breakfast was the BEST hotel breakfast he has ever had. I'll definitely be booking again... but next time it's for ME!

Great apartments/hotel with nice original features

Great friendly service from checking in to checking out, made to feel appreciated for choosing to stay here. The room itself was nice, warm & comfortable with some original features of the building alongside modern details. Breakfast was nice & a good selection from cereals to fully cooked breakfast with yogurts, juices also avaliable. Wouldnt have any hesitation in staying here again.

We loved our stay in the Abbey Hotel and apartments, the staff, breakfast & attention to detail were amazing. Very easy walk into the town centre with its unique shops, pubs & restaurants, also not forgetting the Cathedral & Abbey Gardens. Bury St Edmunds is a must to visit.
