A great value for money hotel in Ipswich

leahmatthh Couples - 4/29/2024 TripAdvisor review

We had a warm welcome by the two receptionists when we arrived. The room was very spacious and modern, and not too noisy at night either. We had lunch in the bar downstairs, which was really nice and not too expensive either. This hotel is great value for money and we would definitely stay here again if required.

Top Class Novotel

C7061KPgd Business - 4/25/2024 TripAdvisor review

The hotel has recently been refurbished. It is a rather soulless building but clean modern and comfortable: Staff were attentive and there is a handy onsite car park. Nice bar but it lacks atmosphere. Breakfast was excellent. I will stay here next time I visit Ipswich.

Good location, clean and tidy with EV charger!

Cassie W. Business - 4/24/2024 Confirmed reviews ALL

Short one night stay for business and I needed an EV charger which was working! nice breakfast, clean and tidy room and the gym was nice with a good selection of equipment, I had it to myself.

Centrally located and an excellent stay.
