WHAT WE LOVE...

The hotel has been through lots of changes over the years, but it was successfully refurbished a few years back and these days has a contemporary feel in its ground floor public areas and in 38 comfortable and well-equipped rooms - some of which enjoy wonderful views over Aldeburgh's pebble beach and the North Sea beyond. It has a busy bar and two good restaurants and is in an excellent location to enjoy what is perhaps the East Coast's poshest seaside resort.

THE DETAILS

Location

It's possible to come here for a long weekend and leave your car keys in the drawer, with plenty to see and do in Aldeburgh itself and lots of places around and within walking distance.

Opposite the beach and 11 miles from Orford Castle, the hotel is ideally situated to for exploring Suffolk's beaches and historical sites.

Style & Character

The hotel suits Aldeburgh weekenders looking for a hotel that's centrally located, preferably with sea views, but not wanting to spend too much money. Refurbishing the main restaurant and bar was a great decision, giving it a classic yet contemporary décor and furniture that suits a casual table-for-two just as much as a big occasion.

There's a sociable feel to the hotel, with a ground-floor reception, restaurant and bar that all flow into one.

We love sitting in comfy chairs by the window and looking out to sea - there's always something to see. The spacious two Superior Sea View rooms come with Smart TVs, a small fridge and large separate walk-in showers.

Food & Drink

In a nod to its location, the comprehensive breakfast menu features kippers and smoked haddock along with a good Full English. We love the Uttapam pancakes and tandoori lamb chops in Sea Spice.
