I was very anxious about parking my car as it’s in a first come first served basis, however there was a gentleman that parked my car for me in arrival. My car is my pride and joy and it came back as I left it. It was an amazing experience for parking. The staff were really friendly and attentive.

Darren United Kingdom

Great location. Near lots of eateries. Room options include lovely views over the quayside. Comfy bed. I like the quirky touches. Housekeeping staff, reception and bar staff were all very friendly and professional. I enjoyed having a drink served outside and the general vibe. I visit Ipswich a lot as I have friends and family there, and have wanted to treat myself to a stay at this hotel for some time.

Angela United Kingdom

We stayed at the Salthouse as we were celebrating a family birthday. The service here from reception to dining was impeccable. I can not praise the team here highly enough.

Hayward-mitchell United Kingdom

Our only issue was the heat and no air conditioning, otherwise it was great

Wendy Canada

The room was somewhat compact but had a small window that looked over the Marina. Breakfast selection was very good. Dinner in the restaurant was exceptional. Superb location alongside the water. The staff were friendly, efficient and ever ready to help.

Valerie United Kingdom

Well run friendly hotel, professional staff, nothing too much trouble. Restaurant amazing! Great menu and staff attentive. Location perfect for an eating and drinking weekend. Will definitely go back.

Emma United Kingdom

Lovely outlook on the marina. Staff very friendly and food very good.

Jane United Kingdom

Perfectly located at the pretty Ipswich harbour. Very comfortable boutique hotel with luxurious super king bed and great amenities. Easy location for exploring Southwold, Aldeburgh and Felixstowe. Food and service were both excellent. Easy to put on a few stone with their amazing hot breakfasts. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay there again.

Richard United Kingdom

Excellent room and additional beds for the kids. Great harbour view of the marina. Fantastic restaurant. Awesome location. Attentive staff.

Andrew United Kingdom

A very comfortable, well located hotel. We didn’t eat in the restaurant but only because it was fully booked.
