Pleasant and helpful staff. Plenty of free parking and located centrally in town. Great price and value for money. Recommend for a informal, low cost stay in a historic building.

The rooms are what you expect in a popular pub and were fine. The car park is a good size and useful for motorcyclists.

Room was a lovely size. Staff very helpful particularly with my disabled son.
Was just a little warm in the room, but the staff did provide a fan which helped.

No details about WiFi in the room or how to check out. Went to hand in key in the morning - premises was locked up - so just had to leave the key in the room. Room was dated, but reasonably clean

Hotel was a bit dated, bit of a 70's era for furniture and decor which was quite charming. Rooms confortable, staff friendly and welcoming, great food. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

A good, economical stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. Not easy finding someone for check in and check out. I was blocked at the car park, so when hotel is full, there may not be enough parking for all guests. Very clean, but my room was a little tired. Overall a good stay.

Stayed here for 3 nights as we met up up with relations who live in Bury St Edmunds. Staff here were friendly and helpful. Bed was clean and comfortable, bathroom was clean & shower was fine. We had food one night and it was nice enough. Place needed a bit of updating. We paid £65 a night for room only so I would say it wasn't expensive.

Reasonable budget hotel.
A bit dated but clean, it is what I would expect at this price point. My only criticism is the low water pressure on the shower, but it was usable.

I stayed here for a night with my son rather than Bury st Ed and it was an excellent experience. The Hotel has a real charm and character. The rooms are clean. The decor maybe tired and sort of 90s chic. However the number 1 thing for us here was the fantastic staff .From the friendly lady at front of house who checked us in and explained things. The fantastic lady at the bar who showed us local eating choices and breakfast places . It was a real delight to stay here. Good staff make all the difference. I'd stay here again.
