We have had a really good time at The George and Dragon Inn. We stopped for 4 nights. The room was very spacious and the On suite was nearly as big as the main room. Time hosts were very friendly and would always have a conversation with you to make you feel welcome. The food was very good and a nice selection. Will not hesitate too stop here again.

Lovely hotel and bar area with great staff. Downside is that my room i dixated pri ate bathroom which I took to be ensuite but was separate from my room. The restaurant was closed on a Tuesday and I specifically book at hotels with a restaurant. I could not find anywhere online where this was indicated. I ordered myself a curry takeaway but had to eat in in my room as not allowed to bring food onto property to eat. So a bit awkward. Also first time I have stayed in a hotel where no wifi in the rooms, only in public areas. Otherwise a lovely place.

Bar was OK However there was no heating in my room Bed was great Shower was Terrible!! I’m a plumber. I couldn’t get the shower to work, only a dribble The only requirements I have when working away are a reasonable bed and a reasonable shower, is that to much to ask for?

This was a cheap room I’d booked, however I still expected to have heating available in the room and the separate bathroom. This made it extremely difficult to get to sleep as it was a very cold night, even with the tiny extra blanket. The pub sign is just outside this room which squeaked in the wind throughout the night, which also didn’t help me to find sleep and could easily be remedied with a drop of WD40! I was shown up to my room by a staff member and was left to discover where my bathroom was myself, which was 2 doors away. To add to that, neither was I shown the guest entrance to use at the back of the hotel if I needed to get in once the pub was shut. So I had to knock on the pub window to get someone’s attention inside to get in that night! All in all, this was not a great experience of Long Melford, which was a shame. it is such a beautiful village and not my first visit. I will be back but unfortunately not to the George and Dragon.

The staff and hotel were lovely and the location was great for what we needed. Although it was very lovely and quiet at night, We did struggle to sleep comfortably as the mattress was quite springy and uncomfortable and the pillows for myself personally were either too soft or hard and big but that is a personal preference and you cannot please everyone. The rooms themselves were both lovely that we had booked. A double and a family room both lovely rooms.We did have a powercut to our room which meant we could not shower in the morning but that wasn’t a major deal for us and being a Sunday there wasn’t much they could do to get someone out quickly but the staff were quick at least trying to look themselves and see if it was an easy fix. Would definitely stay again. Thank you

Worst hotel I've ever stayed in. The noise from the pub was horrific. Didn't realise a family room would be directly above noise until so late. Doesn't mention this in the details- wish I had read the reviews!! Wasn't clean. Room was Freezing- Gail force winds coming through the windows. Even when the noise eventually stopped could hear the people shouting out the front.

Very dirty and old. Dirty floors, cobwebs, bugs everywhere really unpleasant. Such a shame as the building is such a lovely old building it could be great. Even if the decor is old they could clean it properly, but they have left it to be really dirty and grimy. Also after breakfast, which was not good, coffee like water and took ages to be served. We then went to the car to see the chef outside smoking and in filthy clothes! Really put us off, made my husband feel ill. This was at 11am so he hadn’t been cooking all day to get so filthy! Would not recommend.
