A neatly made bed with a tray of breakfast items, two bedside lamps, and a framed picture on the wall.

1. Southwold Arms Apartment

Reydon

"The apartment enjoys a central location in the lovely quaint coastal town of Southwold. A very comfortable, spacious flat with plenty of shops and places to eat on your doorstep. The bedrooms are on a slightly lower level to the living room and kitchen area and would benefit from some sort of coloured strip to draw your attention to this as the flooring is all one uniform colour. An accident waiting to happen! Otherwise a really nice place to stay."

Top Southwold Hotel Reviews

The Cliff Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff committed to ensuring that the Cliff Hotel is one of the best three star hotels. Consistently good over a number of visits I have made."

White Lion Hotel - Aldeburgh

8/10 Good

"Overall the hotel was good. Staff were pleasant. The breakfast was good and location brilliant. We were put into a room equipped for those with limited mobility/disabilities. We were not told about this beforehand and the room was not as expected and we would have wanted to be aware of this at time of booking."

The Coach House Suffolk

10/10 Excellent

"I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were spotless and felt genuinely high‑end, with great attention to detail throughout. The staff were excellent — welcoming, professional, and always ready to help. I also really enjoyed the restaurant; the food was very good and made the stay even better. Overall, a great night’s stay and I’d happily return."

Hatfield Lodge

8/10 Good

"We were Initially put in the Lodge room 2 opposite the hotel.Bed was awful and squeaky, curtains hanging down, VERY basic, but very clean. We asked if we could move room and they moved us to the hotel room 217, 2 singles put together.So much better as it made a super king! The only down side was once on your floor level, there are still a couple or more small flights of stairs to get to your room. A bit of a struggle with suitcases etc. Room was nice & clean, and tea coffee biscuits, info folder, tissues etc. Pillows were very firm but the young man on reception that evening went and found us a soft one.We used the bar, and the restaurant for an evening meal and for breakfast. Breakfast was a continental choice of fresh pastries yoghurts cereal toast etc, along with a choice of various cooked options for a set price (£15.95?)The terrace overlooking the sea was surprisingly warm and well shielded by a good glass screen. It was a great place to sit with a drink. We had great food all round, really tasty, well presented and good portions. The whole place had a great atmosphere and had really lovely staff. I’d definitely stay there again without hesitation."

The Westleton Crown

8/10 Good

"Everything was excellent apart from one issue: payment at check-in. I had my card saved on Google Pay, so when it came to paying for my room, I expected there to be a card reader available. In my experience, 9 times out of 10 hotels have a card machine available for this, and this hotel did have card readers in the bar and restaurant. Unfortunately, the member of staff dealing with my check-in made it very clear that my situation was an inconvenience to her. Rather than offering the option of using a card reader, she made a rather snide comment along the lines of, “How am I supposed to take your payment?” She appeared to expect me to physically provide my card so that she could manually enter the card details into her computer. What made this more frustrating was that on a previous occasion, when staying at the hotel with a colleague, the hotel had simply sent my colleague a payment link, which was a quick and straightforward way of resolving the issue. I appreciate that there may be procedures around taking payment, but the way this was handled was unnecessary and left me feeling uncomfortable. There were clearly other options available, whether using a card reader or simply sending a payment link as had been done previously. It’s a shame, as everything else about the hotel was very good. This interaction unfortunately put a dampener on an otherwise positive experience."
