The hotel is just on the outskirts of Ipswich. The staff are very welcoming, and extremely helpful.
The rooms are of a good size and very clean. The housekeeping staff cleaned our room every morning after we had gone out, which was excellent.
The restaurant food is of a very high standard and there is a good choice including vegetarian options.
In the bar area where it is of a relaxed nature, you can order food from the bar menu or the restaurant menu. Either way, nothing is ever too much trouble.
The swimming pool, sauna and steam room are a must. My husband used the gym which was of an average size and then would come down to the pool area for a jacuzzi.
Although they have the spa treatment available, I can't really comment as I didn't use the facility.
If you want a relaxing time or want to visit the seaside, Felixstowe is only a 30minute drive away. There are also many National Trust houses to visit.
This the second time we have been to the Belstead Hotel and I can honestly say we will be visiting it again.

A bit like a resort hotel, ten minutes drive from the train station. There is no restaurant near the restaurant in the hotel, there is a big supermarket ASDA walk about 15 minutes. The room decoration is still relatively old, but it is clean, there is a free indoor pool and gym
