Great location, very cosy, comfortable rooms with excellent friendly staff, great service and fantastic breakfast.
Great room - we had one of the rooms with a kitchen, which was excellent. The room was very comfy; light, bright bathroom. The dressing gowns were great to have. This was our third stay at this B&B - I really like its look and feel, the staff are always reallly friendly and the breakfast is excellent. Will definitely stay again. It's an easy walk into town for the market, Abbey Gardens and the many restaurants and coffee shops, as well as the independent cinema. And within walking distance of the Parkrun at Nowton Park!
Beautiful place great location staff so kind allowing us to have a early breakfast.
Welcoming staff. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable bed.
Room in the attic with very sloping ceilings and a steep last flight of stairs.
Perfect location for centre of bury st Edmund’s The breakfast was great tooSpacious and well equipped rooms
The bathroom fan/shower was a little noisyParticularly when we were trying to settle down to sleep However it wouldn’t stop us booking again
Loved the little apartment, and everything we needed was provided with a smile
First night stay we did feel quite cold
Breakfast was fantastic , so fresh , made to request. The lady waitress was so helpful , friendly and nothing to much for her
Lovely place and setting not far from town. I had a reaction to some meds whilst there and was ill. The staff were lovely as I was quite embarrassed to be sick. Sorted my room and were very understanding and kind. Thank you will come again.
Location,cleanliness,staff & good value
There wasn’t anything particularly,it would have been lovely if there was some history to read about the place.
Excellent courteous staff, easy check in, quaint and quirky. Large breakfast selection both cooked and continental.
Had a lovely stay at the Abbey Hotel and apartments the host very friendly, room lovely and clean, breakfast was to die for, would definitely recommend this lovely hotel,
The inn is a beautifully restored Tudor era building. The breakfast was cooked to order and plentiful, with good coffee. When I asked the hostess where I could do laundry because we had been traveling for a week, she offered to do it for us, and returned it to us next day: clean, dry, and folded.
Good location, around 10mins walk to town, but an easy walk and it was a lovely morning for it. Great breakfast and very comfortable room
I would have liked a bath but in fairness I didn’t ask….. will do next time.
Good sized room with some cooking facilities and fridge/dishwasher. Lots of storage provided with 3 door wardrobe , chest of drawers, bedside cabinets and cupboard storage. Good sized power shower. Liked that this was Tudor/Medieval with exposed beams and fireplaces etc and the freely available boiled sweets found in reception/community room and bedrooms.
The annoying loud knocking noise late at night and early morning heard from Room 1.The parking entrance is real tight, you could not bring in a large vehicle!
Our stay was very comfortable. We stayed in Room 3, which, to our delight, had a mini-kitchen where tea and coffee were provided for.Staff were very friendly and breakfast was excellent: a wide variety of different kinds of food were on offer.Readers will enjoy the large selection of books available.As a bonus, the hotel is a short walk from Bury's beautiful cathedral and an array of shops and restaurants.
