Marco Pierre White's The Angel  

Great food and comfy rooms in a lovely village

Staff all very friendly and helpful. Food absolutely lovely!!

Both cold and hot water supply in room 4 (inc shower) totally unacceptable! Re-located to room 8 where hot and cold water supply to wash basiin inadequate! Shower OK as independant pumped system.

Noise - every door in te hotel seemed to be slammed to shut. main think we did not like was there was no are to sit other than in the bar - no lounge or quiet area and no chairs in room.

We stayed for one night over a bank holiday weekend as we wanted to explore Lavenham and although we were only travelling from Essex we wanted to stay over night. So when I discovered The Angel on-line and that it was run by Marco Pierre White and the price was reasonable we booked a room and table for dinner too. The guys that worked and managed the bar were very friendly and helpful, making us feel very welcome. The food was amazing and I would definitely recommend to a friend, and visit again myself. The restaurant has a lovely relaxed atmosphere, but luxurious at the same time. I am very interested in the Tudor buildings of the area and the manager was kind enough to show me the famous decorative plaster ceiling that I had read about. All in all our say was very relaxing and enjoyable, would definitely visit again!

Pristine surroundings, excellent, very high quality food and most attentive service.

Rather dark decor, resulting in cold, unwelcoming feeling. Could do with some warmth injecting by use of addition of warmer colours.

The staff at the angel were fantastic service was excellent. Breakfast was the best I've ever had

The only thing that I didn't like was the lack of bar facilities. If you weren't eating in the resturaunt there wasn't any where to enjoy a drink

All the staff were very friendly especially the waiting staff. The food was delicious if a little pricy. We didn't have breakfast as still full from the night before! We came to Lavenham to do some walking in the beautiful Suffolk contryside and weren't disappointed

The room was quite pricy not to include breakfast. The only problem with the room was that the shower head wouldn't stay at correct angle. If one turned up the pressure the head flicked round and sent water spraying over the top of the shhower cubicle (room 8)

The hotel is of medievel design and is more of a restaurant / bar type, there is no reception desk. Your however greeted once you walk through the door.Our room was large clean and warm. The restaurant we booked because it does get busy but was absolutely fantastic and was reasonably priced. Service was very good and attentive.

The only downside was there is no lounge area downstairs.

The Angel is now very much a restaurant/hotel and no longer has a "pubby" feel. The food quality overall was poor & certainly below expectation. There were problems with the hot water system & the heating system barely coped with the winter temperature.Overall dissapointing & not good value for money.

Ambience excellent-staff helpful,friendly and efficient. The dinner was superb, and we enjoyed an equally excellent breakfast for £7.50 pp. We could not fault our visit in any way, and will be returning.

always stay at the angle and love it .please keep it with local staff.

a bit dark but it will grow on us . looking forward to seeing the new rooms

The hotel was behind the main street, in a very quiet location on the market square, which was largely free from traffic. The Angel is mainly an very upmarket restaurant with (I think) 6 hotel rooms. The room itself was nice, with uneven floor boards, very clean and smart. The free bottled water was a nice touch. I had porridge for breakfast, which was lovely and creamy. My husband had the full fry up. It looked nice, but the portion seemed a bit small. Overall we had a very pleasant stay is this beautiful village.

The staff were wonderful
