I didn't mind though as I was just going to be in and out. According to my colleagues, a room with a harbour view is definitely worth asking for. My room was very stylish I thought. Unique things that I hadn't seen anywhere else like mosiac style feature wallpaper in a dramatic blue and black pattern, and just nice little touches like a retro style telephone and dotty mugs, and a big rustic wooden bench/desk. There is nothing corporate about this place at all, it is very nicely done. The bathroom was great too - a seperate shower cubicle with an overhead and side on shower, and a big double bath tub - I had a fantastic soak before heading out for the evening. The room had its own temperature control, and the bed was very comfortable - I felt like I was being enveloped in a gigantic soft marshmallow. I can't comment much more than that, as I didn't have dinner or breakfast there, and didn't use the bar. I'd like to come back to the Salthouse though - when away from home through work, staying here feels like a real treat.

Very charming design hotel overlooking the Ipswich harbor…read more Rooms are very comfy and decorated with taste and in a sailor kind of atmosphere. A little walk from the center but since be city is not big and the walk is nice (along the harbor) it is no problem. Good breakfast in the morning too. Dont Forget to ask for a room with a view on the harbor. Nothing says "good morning " better than the seagulls waking you up and the view on the boats. With a room in a corner of the building the view gets even wider :) They have a free parking so let your car there and enjoy an healthy walk. Will stay there no doubt if I ever go back to city.

Just outside the lovely town of Bury St. Edmund's, it has a wonderfully old world ambience with wide open areas and ornate wood panelling. The pub and dining area make it a superb venue for special events. It is also a brilliant destination for a weekend away as well. Breakfast is also a real treat, as the Full English has some of the best cooked and crisp bacon seen in a while, along with an abundance of fruit juices. Last of all, and certainly not least, with the kind and welcoming staff, this venue is highly recommended on top of the warm setting.

I have to give White Heart a 3 star review. Their food deserves a two star but their night life on…read morea Friday and Saturday night deserves a four. We recently ate there for dinner. Was far from impressed. Food took over 1.5 hours to be served to us and food quality and quantity is very overpriced along with their drinks and beers. I ordered the chicken, bacon, tomato, brie, potato salad. The tomatoes were char-grilled to the point to where they were blackened. They were not edible. I did pancreatic cancer research at the number one cancer hospital in the world and understand the highest risks for pancreatic cancer, the main risk being chargrilled food. White Heart took a meal that could have been healthy and made it highly toxic. I wrote them a note on the receipt that their tomatoes were highly toxic and can give their customers cancer if they ate them. No competent chef on purpose would turn a normal healthy staple into something toxic. Please review your menu and your cooking practices. My husband had the fish fillet sandwich, it had many bones in it. He was not happy. Their Halloumi cheese starter is a joke. You get tiny slices of Halloumi cheese and it's very salty. Another ruined dish. The fish cakes were good but there were only 3 for what you paid. I paid close to 8 quid for two pints. Much too expensive. Don't go here for dinner. Weatherspoons you can get two epic meals and 4 pints for 20 quid. We spent 47 quid on 2 tiny meals, two starters and 3 pints and one cocktail. White Heart is only good for a night out. We also had a very difficult time finding a clean table. It wasn't busy so I can't understand why the tables were not cleaned. We resorted to a not as dirty dirty table we still sat and ate at someone else's filth which was pretty nasty. White Heart step up your game and fix your menu it's only bc I love your night life on Friday and Saturday night that I didn't give you a lower rating even if your DJs don't actually spin but use Torqs which gives the 'appearance' that they are spinning vinyl but real DJs like myself know they are not!

This is the place where I met my wife on Valentines day and it still holds sentimental value for me today. Newmarket has changed a lot over the past years but one thing I can count on remaining a constant is the White Hart pub and hotel. The service is great with many beers on tap. The deco is modern and cozy. It now has a nice rustic look with steam punk'd vintage lights. This place has its quiet moments but can also be super energetic as it is often the hot spot for a drink and music on a Friday or Saturday night.

Some of us began with a selection of teas, and others chose coffee. The finger sandwiches were delicious and included turkey and cranberry sauce, egg salad, and cucumber & cream cheese. My friends raved about the scotch eggs and sausage roll, but I enjoyed the salmon and dill roll. The buttermilk scone was perfectly tender and was served with jam and clotted cream. Desserts included a macaron, a chocolate orange profiterole, an apple crumble tartlet and Christmas cake. All were perfection. Staff were very attentive. Paid parking is adjacent.

He did a fine job waiting on our table but we felt like it was always rushed. We had short rib pie, the sea bass & the snapper & they were all excellent.

We…read morearrived minutes before a wedding party, which was lucky as the reception is in a tiny corridor and it was crowded with just the two of us there, let alone a party of revellers. We were shown to the Dairy Suite, in the Dairy Cottages, which is 'in the annexe'. We hate being put in the annexe when we have booked stay in a beautiful hotel. This annexe is quite a way from the hotel as well. The Dairy Suite door opens onto a sitting room with galley kitchen and there is a downstairs bathroom. Upstairs is the bedroom and an ensuite loo. The decor... well, dated iis one word for it. The promotional photos of the rooms in the main hotel show modern, updated, bathrooms and bedroom decor. This Dairy Suite is full of pink carpet, dark wooden varnished furniture and the bathrooms are pink suites. It's yucky. The duvet and pillows were pretty poor quality. No spare pillows provided. There are modern, flat-screen tvs upstairs and downstairs but only terrestrial channels and the buttons on the remotes only partially worked. There are tea and coffee making facilities but they are of the most instant kind - Nescafé sachets, herb teas, Darjeeling bags and yucky, yucky UHT cartons. It makes such a difference if there is a coffee percolator and fresh milk. There is a fridge so it's easy to provide fresh milk. There is wifi and it is free - but it is weak an a bit slow, but still. The plus point about the whole stay was that the main hotel could have pretty noisy with a wedding party (or three) whereas our room was very quiet and I ended up having a surprisingly good night's sleep. We had dinner in the Bistro (the fancy shmancy £39 for three courses restaurant only had one table at 9pm, too late for us) and actually it was very very good. We had Guinea Fowl and a roast lamb and it was tasty home cooking. Not fancy, but tasty an perfectly coked. Pudding was sticky toffee pudding, a favourite of mine, and it was perfect! The bill for three, with a good bottle of red wine was approximately £75.

The spa is actually Weaver's Spa and Shop, which is a separate entity to the Swan, and we had very different experiences at both. When we finished our spa day, a lovely member of staff walked us through the many (many!) hallways through to The Swan's restaurant - there is an outside walkway but, as it was raining, they were kind enough to take us this alternative route. We were seated at a nice intimate sofa and table, very relaxed after our massages, and ordered our tea to go alongside the food. The tea arrived fairly quickly with some lovely crockery but there was a huge wait for the food, during which time we felt very neglected. The eventual explanation was that the staff Christmas party was also taking place in an adjoining room - fair for them to have a party, but it shouldn't affect service this much! The food itself was good, with a very tasty warm bakewell tart and meringue swans filled with cream. The scones were also delicious, with both fruit and apple & walnut flavours served. The sandwiches were a let down with very dry bread and seemed to be an afterthought compared to the delicate pastries and cakes. We had a lovely time together but the afternoon tea didn't add much to the experience overall. A bit of a shame.
