Location
The smoke-free hotel is in a prime touristic area of Ipswich. There is Gippeswyk Park approximately a 10-minute drive from this Ipswich hotel.

The accommodation is within easy reach of Hotel bus stop. The hotel has a quiet location — 75 km from London Stansted airport.

Some of the 79 smoke-free rooms at the property are furnished with a writing table, and appointed with tea and coffee making facilities.
Eat & Drink
Breakfast is served in the garden. Guests can enjoy time in the lounge bar. At Wolsey Restaurant, situated just around the corner from the Best Western Ipswich, you can taste British cuisine.
Leisure & Business
Spa therapy, a shared lounge, and recreational facilities are also found on site. Keeping fit at this hotel is convenient thanks to a fitness area that offers fitness classes.
“While the location avoids Ipswich's town parking woes and puts you close to major routes, I noted some past-their-prime rooms that could use a refresh; however, the sizable Suffolk Suite stands out for events. For families and business guests seeking value near local attractions, this could be a practical choice, especially considering the on-site spa and child-friendly perks. Though some areas need attention, there are definite benefits.”
