+Nice private hotel, a must for "old movie buffs" as there's some great memorabilia around the place, and in the room. Breakfast good and cooked to order. Parking good and friendly owners.

“Nettes kleines Hotel für Ipswich”
+Eine Nacht auf der Durchreise vor der Rückfahrt mit der Fähre. Das Hotel ist typisch "British". Im EG mit Bar, Frühstücksraum und Aufenthaltsraum sehr nett eingerichtet. Zudem kann man bei schönem Wetter sehr schön im kleinen Garten (u.a. mit Springbrunnen) sitzen. Zu Fuß nur ca. 1 km in die City, nahe zum inneren Ring gelegen. Besonderheit: Viele Filmplakate aus den 50er und 60er Jahren in den Fluren/dem Treppenhaus :-)) Einziger Wermutstropfen: Wir mussten Sonntags wg. dem Fährtermin bereits um 7:30 Uhr los. Es war aber - trotz Nachfrage - nicht möglich, ein (bereits mit der Buchung bereits bezahltes) Frühstück zu bekommen (Sonntags erst ab 8:°° Uhr).

“Just like Fawlty towers”
+We booked to stay while doing charity bike ride. Hotel first agreed to give us breakfast at 7am - then later said it would not be possible until after 7.30 - the time we had to leave. They literally could not be bothered to get up 30 minutes earlier to serve their guest. We asked about a late checkout so we could shower after the 100K ride. we asked for 1 hour (from 11.30 to 12.30). They said no - would be too much trouble for them. Zero hospitality, charmless and no interest in service or future bookings - especially if it was a minor inconvenience. Its people like this that give the UK small hotel industry a bad name.

“Lovely b&b”
+I booked here for two nights as I couldn't get into the Novotel for the week. I had a lovely room. Very clean with everything you need. I moved to the Novotel and wished I stayed put. The Novotel was red hot with no way to control the heat and very noisy! The Bentley Tower may not suit all but a decent night sleep and a good breakfast (they even bought in some skimmed milk for me) is what you need when working away. The personal touches of a privately owned place also make a difference. I'll definitely book again.

“Great hotel”
+This is our second stay at Bentley Towers and it was clean and very comfortable. The staff are very friendly and the gardens are lovely. The film posters are a lovely touch. Would highly recommend

“One of the most basic rooms I've ever stayed in”
+I'm afraid I didn't enjoy my night at the Bentley Tower Hotel. It started with a very 'curt' greeting which I found unwelcoming. The public areas of this small family run hotel are not unattractive & have a warm and homely feel. The single bedroom that I had however, was Spartan. The furniture, and fittings were cheapest and most basic, as were shower (no bath), WC & sink. As well as being basic, fittings were all very old. WC seat was stained an obscure colour all around the rim - most disconcerting! The room had been badly decorated over the years & looked very tired. Despite the aforementioned comments, I'd have to say that the bed was comfortable and the sheets and pillow were clean and the linen of good enough quality. The room could accurately be described as 'clean'. I did have a comfortable night's sleep, and as I was on a 1 night business trip, this was my principle expectation (although all movements in adjacent rooms were clearly audible). For the price I paid, I didn't expect the Ritz - but I've come to expect a reasonable standard for this level of price (a la Premier Inn/Holiday Inn Express etc). My rate did not include breakfast (on offer for extra charge). I didn't

“unique hotel”
+A great hotel that I would fully recommend - each room is unique with huge pictures of Hitchcock & Rock Hudson films etc adorning the walls. Friendly staff and the full english breakfast was perfect.
