贝斯特韦斯特小修道院酒店

Hotel was inviting and clean and staff were friendly and very helpful. Had a very nice evening meal there too and breakfast was great. Only slight negative was two very narrow single beds in our room.

Room was very clean & comfortable. Bathroom was a bit grubby in places.

I booked this on behalf of a colleague " room was spotless, bed was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious".

Room was clean and of good quality. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good location for visiting Bury St Edmunds and the surrounding countryside

Very pleasantly surprised at how lovely this hotel was. We had dinner and breakfast and both were very good. Very clean and very friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice size clean room and good food.

Nice hotel at a good price.

Staff were good, friendly and helpful. I was put in a room outside of the main building. Had a bit of a motel vibe. The room itself, a classic double.. disgusting!! Stains on the carpet, paint over the curtains and side of the tv. Units completely dated. Bathroom full of mould. Ceiling light fittings broken. Very poor dodgy repairs maid around the room. Main issue.. the room was freezing. They provided an extra oil heater in the room which I had to put on full next to the bed. The bathroom was like an ice box, even the floor was ice cold to walk on. The mould around the bathroom was disgusting. The room front door led to the path and grass area on the site. The door did not feel secure at all and let in air and light. I did not feel safe if I’m honest. Anyone could walk onsite and attempt access to the outbuilding rooms. I could hear conversations from the room next door which went on all night so I didn’t really get to sleep, the cold also didn’t help with sleeping. Maybe the rooms in the main building are a 3* but what I experienced wasn’t even rateable as a 1*. Before I left I had a look inside the kettle, what was growing in it was unidentifiable. The water must have been left in there for some time. Disgusting! In my view, that room was not fit for purpose but I had no choice but to use it as no other rooms were available and I arrived in the early hours of the morning. I spent 6h in that room. Never again will I stop there.

Perfect for an overnight stay. A spacious, clean and well presented room. Friendly staff and good amenities.

Lack off staff on arrival, only one person serving at reception & the bar, had to hunt the person down to check in. Similar situation in the morning at breakfast. Hotel was like the Mary Celeste. Breakfast was overpriced for what it was.

A lovely breakfast & plenty of choices. Room cozy & clean. Quaint gardens & surroundings.

Room was clean, staff was lovely and welcoming and would definitely return

Good staff, clean quiet room

well, on arrival, there was no hot water or heating in my room. The lady on reception was awesome and got a boiler engineer out as one part of the hotel was affected (which they didnt know about) - three hours later, the heating and hot water was back on, so was able to have a bath that night. The following morning, again there was no heatong or hot water., Reported to reception on leaving, who didnt seem interested. The toilet in my room had an intermittent fault whereby after flushing, the overflow would continually run for about an hour, then stop on it own, only to restart for no reason. This was really annoying as it woke me up multiple times and I had very little sleep. Eventually, I had to close the bathroom door and wear earplugs. Would not return.

Helpful staff. Excellent room. Loved the little treats left in the room for us. Courtyard room excellent for the dog.

All good nice place friendly staff

The staff have been fantastic and the room is fabulous

The room was adequate, for an executive room it was dated, shabby and in the old part of the priory which was uneven. The restaurant was pleasant and food was extremely tasty. For the price it was a shame breakfast was not included but the offering was really good The staff were amazing, really helpful, polite and could not do enaough for any guests. I would possibly stay here again.

We booked to stay on a Saturday evening. Room 41 itself was pleasant enough. However it was incredibly hot and we could not change the radiator to enable it to be turned off. There was a lot of mould in the bathroom which looked like it had not been treated for a while and was an unpleasant experience. There were notices warning us that the water was incredibly hot, however I took a shower in the morning which was fine, but my partner followed immediately but there was no hot water left and she had to have a very quick cold shower. Another unpleasant experience. At Reception another guest was complaining he did not shower as the water was far too hot. The worst experience came from the function which was happening in the main part of the hotel. The doors and windows were open and the extremely loud music and party revelers accompanying singing meant we had to wait until it finished to be able to sleep. We could not concentrate on our TV viewing or reading. We could not open the window to cool the room due to the sounds. When we spoke to the duty manager he said it was within their health and safety limits - which I dispute as I struggled to hear him speak. Also he very rudely said what did we expect as we had booked at a hotel which has functions and we were lucky it finished at 11 instead of the normal midnight.The website mentioned the functions. However on re reading the website it clearly mentions ' a true oasis of calm and a tranquil environment. I totally disagree.
