Holiday Inn Ipswich by IHG

Holiday Inn Ipswich by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for one night as a family of three. The staff were so nice from arrival to departure. The reception staff were really friendly and helpful and it was a happy and relaxed environment. We also found that the member of staff who greeted you when you were swimming was also a really happy, friendly man - these all made such an impact on our stay. I guess the only thing which would have made our stay better would have been a fridge in the room to keep our drinks cool - but the air conditioning was a dream! We would definitely stay again."

"Had a really nice night’s stay with a 3 course meal each at the hotel’s restaurant and we got an upgrade to a balcony room for £15. Friendly staff and lovely luxury hotel with luxury amenities in the room too. Only improvement could be better air conditioning as the room was still quite hot even with fan unit and ceiling fan"
