Best Western - accommodation in Bury St Edmunds

We had a plesant time

I didn't feel that the breakfast justified the £13 price, so I probably wouldn't choose that again. The restaurant prices were about what I'd expect for a decent pub meal, and the pie was absolutely delicious – easily the highlight of the food for me. One downside was that the bar and seating area, which was the only comfortable place to sit and do some work on my laptop, closed at 9:30 pm. After that, there was nowhere suitable to work or socialise other than outside, the reception area, or returning to the room. The reception area wasn't really practical for working, and the room itself only had a small table, making it less suitable as a workspace. As a result, once the bar closed, you were effectively confined to your room for the rest of the evening. Would I stay there again? Possibly, if there were no better alternatives available, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

The room itself was really nice, clean and great amenities. I was a bit disappointment that no notification had been given for the pub itself being closed, especially for the England game. However breakfast was still served the next day, I spoke to the owner and found out about an electrical issue in the pub so that made sense. I am about to book for another night soon, so I would definitely recommend staying here.
