Hintlesham Hall may have had a mixed reputation in the past but they seem to be currently on top form. We've just enjoyed a splendid mid-week break in a great room, full of character with beams, high ceilings and a huge double bed. The food was excellent, the grounds manicured and we couldn't fault the staff. It is unbelievably peaceful... more

We have just returned from a night at Hintlesham Hall, it was fantastic. The staff were great and could not have been more helpful. We had dinner in the restaurant which was one of the best meals I have ever had, starting with canapes in the drawing room and finishing with coffee and chocolates on the terrace. Our room was... more

We got a good rate from a website which included dinner (& breakfast). Food wise the hotel is excellent dinner was a lovely experience and Breakfast was great too. We also had... more

From start to finish nothing was too much trouble! We had a spacious room and the bathroom had been recently refurbished to a high standard. The shower was Huge and there was a rolltop bath in the main bedroom. The highlight of our stay was dinner in the parlour, a very intimate dining room with lovely wood panelled walls. Service... more

Yes, this place has certainly gone downhill. When we last stayed, we couldn't fault it. Our return this year was a disaster: abysmal service, poor food and the atmosphere was unfriendly to say the least. We certainly wouldn't recommend Hintlesham Hall. more

Having had my wedding at this Hotel, we couldn't fault the wedding co-ordinators and the waiting staff. However, the management of the hotel is very poor as is their customer service. We were overcharged by £300 on our bill and it took nearly a month to get a refund, we weren't assisted with our luggage either on arrival or the... more

Not a great experience to be honest. Firstly, the room was nice - not in the main house but spacious enough. The shower however was a dribble which you could not really wash with but that was the only complaint about the room. The service leaves a bit to be desired for the money paid though. The lunch menu is... more

WOW !! What a fabulous experience ! From the warmest of welcomes, right through superb cuisine and fine wines in luxurious surroundings, then a clever, funny, thought-provoking Murder Mystery evening, professional friendly staff and the most delightful ambience - we came away wanting to return again and again to Hintlesham Hall. Nothing was too much trouble. We felt so welcome... more

Sun 9 March 2008 /Mon 10 March 2008 My sister and I stay at Hintlesham Hall every year and we have some wonderful memories from each of our visits. As always, we were given a very warm welcome at Reception and all the staff were professional, courteous and friendly at all times. On this occasion, we stayed in a room... more

Stayed at Hintlesham Hall in the late eighties when the Watsons owned it and found it faultless. I returned for my sixtieth birthday we my partner expecting a similar experience, booked the "best room available" at £400 per night including breakfast. On arrival at the main entrance ( as previously and as their promotional video) opened the boot only to... more
