"Mr"

I have only put this because I was unhappy, why on my first night went out on second day on return to my room, my bed had not been made bin not emptied & towels not changed. Went to reception were I was not that the housekeeper had put a letter in all occupied rooms. I can assure you I did not have one, I do under that we have COVID-19, but surely staff with masks on can carry out minor room requirements.

"Excellant location"

Very good location for easy access to A14 and Ipswich Town, reasonably quiet in the evenings. I stayed for work, so was booked in for 5 nights, was not told that they would not dress my room each day, so the bin was not emptied for the entire stay. I had to also ask for glasses and mugs to be replaced, which they were but did not top up the coffee and tea so had to go back and ask for them. Normally, TV reception would not both me but as I was there for 5 days found it very frustrating that TV signal was very bad, the picture quality was patchy, kept breaking up, ended up just turning it off and listening to the radio through the wifi. Also, had a problem connecting to wifi, ended up waiting 30 minutes on the phone to their Suppliers help desk, finally got it working, just felt that I was being pushed to use the more expensive version rather than the free supply. On the plus side, room and bed were clean and comfortable, would use again but this time I am pre-warned.

"Good Night Guarantee - just words"

Whilst staying in Ipswich South Premier Inn last week, my daughter and I did not have the best experience. We understand that some noise is acceptable but we had particularly disturbed night due to internal and external noise. Premier Inn have accepted that they will need to address the problems and their practices for future customers but our claim on the Good Night Guarantee was denied. It seems that the Good Night Guarantee is worthless and just words. Added to this the staff at the Beefeater next door, could not have been more disinterested in us as customers. In these Covid times, service has changed but it does not need to be rude or slovenly. I would have expected more. The food was cold, undercooked, the porridge was liquid and some items ordered simply didn’t arrive at all.

"usual good standard"

perfect location for exploring Suffolk countryside near Ipswich. Beefeater next door, very good on Friday eve, but felt as though we were an inconvenience on Sunday evening. Outlook cafe 5 mins walk away, right on harbourside and delightful for drink or meal. Shop and fuel station closeby.

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.
