The best inn I have ever stayed inn! It's a 1500s building and it is gorgeous and fascinating inside. So much to look at, lovingly and tastefully restored and preserved. See pics. Fantastic staff. I didn't use the pub / restaurant but it looked superb. I did have breakfast which was 10 out of 10, see pic. The location is in the heart of the historic old town, all the streets are narrow and quaint, I managed to find parking up the street, but the whole area wasn't designed for motor cars. Be aware that the many steep stairs are not suitable if you have mobility issues or heavy suitcases, so if that's you call them to discuss your options. See the pic of the paper they gave me to help me navigate the labyrinth! Overall the best historic property I have ever stayed in, and I have travelled a lot. Don't miss staying here!

Felixstowe has a really good promenade giving access from Langaurd Point to Old Felixstowe and beyond via a short beech walk to the Ferry Boat Inn. The prom also gives access to a good range of cafe, bar and eating establishments, the spa Pavilion being well worth a visit, the town itself is but a short walk from the pier and has a pleasant pedestrian only high street

Plenty of nice restaurants to choose from. High street has plenty of shops including quite a few independent shops. Plenty of things to do at the seafront where you can have a nice short or long stroll along the promenade

Lots of re-generation on going.Lovely new pier, cafes ( sea you and Boardwalk) etc. lots to do.Nice and clean. Perfect seaside visit with lots of interesting days out a short drive away.
Reasonably easy parking, you may need to be early on a sunny day.

The promenade was really nice, plenty of entertainment plus free outdoor play areas including ping-pong tables!
The walk along the beach was very nice, right beside the golf links up to the Ferryboat Inn. Good food. but do book beforehand as it is very popular

Although the weather was less than kind, my stay was pleasant and comfortable. The Great Orwell Hotel was the ideal venue for my need to be near the centre of town and close to the seafront for a bracing morning walk.

Felixstowe has something for everyone.
Felixstowe has something for everyone. There is a great mix of shops - chains and independents. The beaches are clean with decent facilities and amusements. The Dock end has the fort and museum with the excellent cafe. The amusement arcades are generally clean and varied with fast foods between. The pier has the obligatory slot machines with a cafe and food kiosks near the leisure centre. Old Felixstowe has quieter beaches and a large carpark. The ferry end is quieter but charming.
What we don't enjoy...the bumpy, bouncy roads and the ban on motorhomes in most of the car parks.
There is very little choice of hotel in Felixstowe, so your choices are really limited. We chose the Best Western as hopefully the most passable of a not great, old fashioned bunch.
So what's good... we met 2 staff members and both were very nice. It's very close to the high street shops and also the beach/pier etc... There is limited parking, but we got there early enough to get a space and it was fine. The room was average size and did the job. We didn't go into the restaurant/bar so cannot comment on that.
We stay here quite often. Very good location and pleasant, helpful staff - especially on reception.
The bar food is excellent and good value and the public areas are clean and comfortable. The building and interiors are beautiful - especially the lounge.
We prefer the rooms that have not been renovated recently as they tend to be more spacious........
BUT -
After being in such a bad hotel which I left with 3 days left. I booked this lovely place it was cosy, and the bed was really comfy. The view was great, and Donna was very nice.I didn't realise the tv only had bbc, iplayer, and your own netflix. I kept searching, and Donna explained as I thought it had gone wrong, just me, though, lol
My room was large with a decent sized bathroom. There were plenty of tea bags, coffee sachets and milk. The bed was comfortable and there was some parking at the front of the hotel. To be fair there's plenty of parking on the street nearby. I had a nice large breakfast each morning and the bar was large and well stocked.
We really enjoyed our stay in this pleasantly presented flat close to the shops and beach. Felixstowe is a great little town, too.
Thanks very much to the owner for the thoughtful gift of bread, crisps and biccies on arrival.
That it was very buateful hotel but the prices were fair and the staff when out of there Way to make one feel very comfortable all the amenities were just in walking distance.one mile and your on the Beach.the bathroom loch.
The caravan was very comfortable with a well equipped kitchen, bathroom and balcony area, there was everything you could need.
There were games and dvds to use which were very welcome.
All info was clear and helpful.
Nice large airy room, with big windows. Good tv, comfy bed, didn't have breakfast so can't comment, but overall a classic Best Western hotel. Staff very friendly, and fit us in at the last minute, thanks!
The Orwell is a beautiful hotel, with so much history. I was staying for 4 nights to recuperate from an operation. The staff were absolutely fantastic and so helpful. The food was excellent as well.
I loved the decor throughout the hotel including lighting. Separate seating areas. Sweeping staircase. Friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent. Plentiful and something for everyone.
Staff was friendly and very helpful can not find any faults at all great hotel reception upgrade our room because of mistake how very kind of her thanks
Beautiful apartment with nice partial view of the ocean. Easy walkability in great area for walks along the beach and near a park. Perfect for children.
