i am asked to give opinion of the Hintlesham Hall Hotel based upon a one night stay with my wife.
We were there for lunch on the 1st January but were unable to check in until after 3pm which is rather late especially when check out is no later than 11am. The lunch food and service was very good. Upon arrival to our Superior Room, which was nice and cosy, the heating was off and a small electric heater was in the room to compensate. Heating is timed with little consideration to the weather. There was a separate WC in the same hallway to the bathroom. The WC had no wash hand basin and to wash after going to the toilet and one has to go to the bathroom. I recommend upon the basis of hygiene that a hand basin be fitted in the separate WC. Certainly we would return to the Hotel for short breaks and will be lunching there on the 14th January with friends to celebrate my birthday so given the minimal criticism I would recommend the Hotel for it's welcoming charm, good food and excellent service. If we stay there again, which is very likely, I would favour an alternative room to Rialto and one similar to the room shown in the advertisement of Superior Rooms and facing to the front of the Hotel.
