"Very good.... if you like to be woken up early by deliveries etc."

We had a room overlooking the car park which was fine, being away from the main road. But we were woken up at 5.30 on our first morning by the crashing of glass collecting bottles from the Beefeater, and just after 6.00 on our third morning by 45 minutes of cages being crashed around during a delivery to the Beefeater. Apart from that it was a typical Premier Inn experience, although the toilet seat hinge was broken and the shower head very loose. We have claimed under the "Good Night Guarantee". Wait and see. Quite a few guests not wearing masks in the corridors or reception and I'm not aware of this being challenged by staff.

"Family favourite hotel when Suffolk"

This hotel has been used by my family for years when in the area and we always enjoy using it as a base. Rooms are clean, beds are perfect, staff are friendly and the breakfast is good value for money. Never in all our years of visiting have we experienced problems at the hotel. Highly recommend staying especially if you enjoy the villages, pubs and restaurants all the way down to Shotley Gate. My only (small) feedback this time was the friendliness off the restaurant supervisor on shift during breakfasts. No doubt he was super efficient and very matter of fact, but there was no natural way with guests with the welcoming feeling you want when being greeted in the morning. I experienced 3 mornings of being asked if it was my first time at the restaurant by the same supervisor, which I found most unusual. The lady server who actually looked after us each morning was superb and couldn’t do enough for us. Well done to her for reminding me why we stay there.

"Great little hotel"

Arrived first day the hotel opened, quiet but very good location, wonderful staff on reception, think her name was Mel. Breakfast, very friendly and attentive. Could not hear noise from next door (i.e.TV, bathroom and talking), felt like we were the only people here. Could hear people talking in the corridor returning to their rooms in the morning. Rooms bigger than some Premier Inns. Excellent furnishings, comfortable bed. Room was spotless. One of the best Premier Inns. The restaurant was lovely, excellent evening meal and at half price.

Hotel description Get the best of both worlds at the Premier Inn Hotel Ipswich South: thrills and spills by day, peace and quiet by night. Set just off the A14, you're in prime position for exploring Suffolk. And, if you're here on work, we're near to local businesses too. You could feed the animals at Jimmy's Farm or fill up on romance at Wolverstone Hall. Then step out on the town in Ipswich. And, if it's the right time of year, don't miss the World Hot Rod Championships and banger racing at Foxhall Stadium. After a (quite literally) smashing day, return and recharge in our tasty restaurant and comfy beds.
