Best Western Ipswich Hotel  

In the quiet Suffolk countryside, just off the A12 and A14 and about 6 km from Ipswich town centre. A short drive gets you to Chantry Park, Jimmy's Farm, Sir John Mills Theatre and Portman Road — a handy, family-friendly base for exploring the area.

Refurbished in 2017, the property mixes modern comfort with a retro touch. Rooms feature Select Comfort beds, large 40-inch/LCD TVs, hot-drink stations and fluffy towels. Many rooms enjoy garden views and private bathrooms with separate tubs and showers.

Unwind in the spa complex with massage rooms and a sauna, keep active in the gym, or let kids loose in the playroom. Stroll well-groomed lawns, enjoy free on-site parking, and rely on a 24-hour front desk and onsite laundry services.

Eight fully equipped meeting rooms and a huge Suffolk Suite for banquets and conferences — one of the largest venues in East Anglia. Business centre, wedding services and free high-speed internet keep events running smoothly.

An 80-seat restaurant serves British fare with lawn-facing views and weekday full breakfasts (fee applies). A retro-style bar offers all-day food and Sky television, and room service is available during limited hours.
