Best Western Gatehouse Hotel

We arrived very late (10.45pm) having called to explain our lateness. Our welcome was great. Very hot night and no air con but an efficient and quiet fan. Beds comfortable. Shower very good. Breakfast was excellent. less

Had lovely overnight stay. Such friendly & helpful staff. Especially marina. Nice spacious room with plenty of tea, coffee & biscuits. Food excellent in restaurant & great freshly cooked breakfast. Very quiet & peaceful. Plenty of parking. Definitely recommend. less

We recently had a 4 night stay. Our room was tucked away out the back and for us easily accessible with our cases, that my husband had been lugging up flights of stairs in other hotels. The parking was easy in the large car park and located just by our room. The room was large and comfortable but could have done with a little bit of freshening up and maintenance. The towel rail in the bathroom had fallen off and wasn't replaced and the whole room needed a fresh coat of paint. We had a room only booking but found the continental breakfast was good value with plenty of variety. We enjoyed dinner in the dining room which was just delicious. A quiet position with a lovely outlook. less

Had the dinner, bed and breakfast deal and we wasn’t disappointed. The hotel was in a large old house with lots of parking and away from the centre, but easy to find and access in the car. The room was big with everything we needed. Comfortable bed and large en-suite. Dinner was excellent, great choice and food value for money. Breakfast was really good too with lots of choice. Would highly recommend and will come again. less

We’ve spent a lot of time in Ipswich hotels over the last few months as we work on the boat in a near by marina... this was the best experience to date. Great reception from the staff, the food was delicious and complimented the wonderfully romantic ambiance of the candle lit dinner. Our room is huge, we’re in Room 102. Our friends are in room 101 over the garden which is just as big with a far more modern ensuite... But no complaints! Lovely views, no traffic or city noise at all! I awoke to the sound of bird song, the gardens are filled with rabbits and other wildlife, a rare treat! less
