The White Lion Hotel  

convenient, jolly good breakfast

limited evening menu compared with southwold hotels

The location was fantastic and parking easy - good and quick receptrion (both in and out) - good food with excellent wine list - fish was very good. Cheese board really great. Friendly staff who werew always helpful and very well presented. Room was clean, well equipped and suitable for a weekend - might be a little tigh for longer period.

Would have been better to ahve booked a sea view room -

Excellent service, good food at reasonable prices, excellent location

Made a restaurant reservation a month before we arrived only to find that they had no record of it! They did manage to sort it out so no problem. Also booked a morning call but did not receive it the first day so a bit of a lack of communication between staff!

staff v pleasant. breakfast excellent. sandwich we had was lovely (but expensive!)

overpriced. had seafront facing room which was so hot it was unbearable (the window only opened 4"). Im disabled so I had checked there was a lift - what it didnt mention was the lift only went to 2nd floor & I was on 3rd floor. v little parking at rear of hotel and difficult to find a space on arrival at the front.

Very helpful staff, excellent location .

The location. It is next to the sea

Room was tiny, beds very uncomfortable, shower hard to get in and out of, windows only open six inches so hot and stuffy.

The breakfasts were fantastic and with so much choice were definitely a highlight. The restaurant staff were very friendly and attentive too.

The lack of adequate parking.

The sea view double room had a good layout. The bed faced the low window, so you can lay in bed and watch the sea (although the windows were a bit condensated due to the time of year - January). The room was very clean, and we didn't get at all cold. It was fairly small, but cozy. Every member of staff was friendly, in the hotel and the brasserie. The brasserie provided a convinient place to eat and the breakfast was one of the best I have had for choice, portions and quality of food. Alseburgh itself has a lot of character. For a seaside village, it is well looked maintained. There is a slightly oldy worldy atmosphere, where life is in the slow lane.,,this felt really relaxing. I will definitely stay here again...

There was a wedding function on, which could be heard in our room. We were just at the top of the stairs, above the hotel reception area where everyone seemed to congregate as the night progressed. It didn't disturb us too much though, as we'd been for a fairly late drink. A door at the top of the stairs could help this...

The 'full english' style breakfasts need to be individually prepared so as to arrive fresh onto the table.

We love Aldebugh and we have stayed at the White lion a few times many years ago but that was before the refurbishment. The standard and service has always been excellent but the rooms now have been brought upto the same grade. We had a fantastic weekend and hope to book again very soon.

Very attentive staff who provided excellent service throughout our stay. The room was very comfortable and clean with excellent views of the sea. We will definitely stay there again and highly recommend it for a relaxing break.

Although disappointed there were no seaview rooms left, our room was lovely! Very comfortable bed and the room and bathroom were both very clean. Although the shower shutter leaked leaving us with a wet floor! The food at breakfast was delicious and there was an excellent selection to choose from. Although on the 2nd morning, the fresh orange juice had been replaced with a non fresh variety! We ate in the restaurant on our 2nd evening and the food was excellent! No complaints whatsoever there! The White Lion is a fantastic hotel, staff were very helpful and friendly and we will definitely stay there again.

Located on Aldeburgh seafront. Friendly, professional staff, excellent food.
