Top Great Bentley Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Colchester by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"• Fantastic hotel with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Everything from check-in to check-out was seamless and stress-free.""

easyHotel Ipswich

8/10 Good

"Everything you need, and nothing that you don't. Tiny, windowless room, tiny, but well designed shower room. If all you need is a comfortable bed for the night (we were attending a show at the Regent theatre, and going out afterwards) this is a good option when prices all around are high. 5-10 minutes walk from theatre, a Wetherspoon and nightlife. And steps away from cheap parking available on Your Parking Space. What's not to like?"

Best Western Ipswich Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lady in red who checked me in ( twice now ) is amazing member off staff! Informed me off party that night. Room was requested and given which is large and roomy . Look forward to going back"

The Mill Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome hotel best place to stay in Sudbury hands down to amazing staff restaurant and bar. Rooms lovely the views amazing and just a pleasure to stay"

Orwell Hotel

8/10 Good

"Has a bar, but no residents bar outside of normal hours. Could have done with additional tables for breakfast, and the replenishment of the breakfast items just wasn't quick enough, with people waiting around a lot for various things. Considering they knew the numbers up front this could have been better. The room was large, comfortable, and clean. It looked like the bathroom had recently been refurbished so that was excellent. All in all a good stay for the money involved."

The Kings Arms Broad Green

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay. Cannot fault a thing. Really friendly and attentive staff. Really nice and clean room. Food excellent and all at a very reasonable price. Bed and Breakfast for £50. Can't go wrong!"

The Essex Golf and Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"This was our 6th stay at The Essex and we never have any complaints. The rooms are good size and have been recently refurbished. The location is nice and quiet, with a nice walk round the local airfield"
