Overnight stay for birthday treat
Excellent hotel good food, breakfast and evening meal, lovely spacious room would definitely recommend and return
Not as expected
The food was very good. Full marks to the chef for quality, presentation and flavour. The staff were uniformly friendly. However it was disappointing, to say the least, to find ourselves accommodated in a converted stable block when we were expecting to stay in a superior room in a mansion. The room was comfortable but more rustic than luxurious. Some of the public rooms were very fine, e.g. the Parlour which was used as the dining room, and the lounge during the day. However the lighting in the lounge in the evening was so dim it was quite gloomy. It may be advisable to book a table for dinner in advance. On arriving at 4pm on a Sunday afternoon we were told we could not have dinner until 8.30pm because all the earlier times were booked.
Such a special place
We had our honeymoon here and return every year for the last 32 yrs.
Under the current management we find the Hotel more relaxed and welcoming yet still opulent and luxurious. We were up graded to a four poster room which was a lovely touch on our anniversary in September. The food is always exceptional and look forward to coming back.
Bed/Spa
The hotel was very nice food was good, drinks expensive. The Bed was awful. The room was on a slope so the bed was also sloping so you felt you were rolling down even before anyone else got in the other side. The mattress was about 50 years old. One side you could feel the springs coming through and both sides rolled into the middle. Not a very comfortable nights sleep, thankfully it was only for one night!
Although I appreciate this was our fault for not studying the information, the 'spa' was just an outside Jacuzzi, no pool, no steam room or sauna. The hot stone massage was very nice, but as the hotel was advertised as a spa hotel it was very disappointing.
Excellent Stay
We spent two nights at Hintlesham Hall and were delighted with the surroundings, the attention to detail and the very well trained and polite staff. The food was excellent with interesting choices and our "superior" room very well appointed and comfortable, with an extremely large bathroom with bath plus shower. We had the added bonus of being on the ground floor with a door onto a patio area where we could sit. We used the spa facilities which were also very well organised and good.
Superb stay
Very welcoming and friendly staff. Room very comfortable even with the temperature in the 30s. The fan was a welcome relief. Food was fabulous.
The only negative (if I m pushed to find one) is that there is no pool in the spa area. This would have finished off our stay perfectly with a dip in the pool.
Staff
All the staff were so friendly and professional, we had a wonderful relaxing time when we stayed
