We decided to have a local weekend away to celebrate our wedding anniversary. That isn't so easy in Suffolk in Norfolk where a lot of the allegedly classy hotels tend to be mutton dressed as lamb to tempt the London weekenders. We went for a half-board two night stay but rejected the seaview rooms as being quite a bit more... More

We stayed for a 3 day break at this lovely hotel, and would fully recommend it. The situation is perfect, so close to the sea, and only a short walk into town. The staff could not be more helpful and friendly, and it was always a pleasure to be so well looked after at each meal. The food was excellent,... More

Just stayed one night as passing through but would ceratinly return to stay longer at the Brudenell hotel. All the staff we so friendly, professional and efficient and we were made to feel so welcome. We chose a non seaview room as it was cheaper but we loved our view of uninterrupted countryside and the harbour. Our evening meal and... More

We had a lovely time at the Brudenell. The restaurant was great and the superior room was also worth having. I would say that we started in a more basic room which was quite pokey and not worth £200. The staff were excellent and did sort us out when we discovered we had not booked the room we thought we... More

We decided at the last minute to book a overnight stay and evening meal at The Brudenell. The staff couldn't have been more helpful. Our room was lovely and we were pleasantly surprised to find an Anniversary card along with some Champagne truffles. ( A really nice touch!) The evening meal was excellent and I would thoroughly recommend The Brudenell... More

We have just returned from a family weekend away and feel like we have been on a weeks holiday. The hotel is first class and our room was extremely comfortable. The restaurant was excellent and we enjoyed two first class dinners. The staff are all extremely helpful and very attentive. The hotel is situated right on the beach which if... More

We made a late booking at The Brudenell and from the initial phone enquiry to checkout the whole experience was a delight. We were in room 308, (highly recommended for the fabulous sea view and size) the staff put in a Z-bed so that our 14 year old didn't have to share the sofa bed with his sister and there... More

We thought the hotel looked good on the website and we weren't diappointed. The sea is so close you feel you could almost touch it. The rooms and hotel are tastefully decorated with a marine theme and the food was wonderful.

We are a couple in our 20’s who recently spent two nights at The Brudenell in Aldeburgh, Suffolk. Given that we had paid £235 a night for a sea view room in this 4* hotel, we had high expectations. We were however disappointed. Had we paid around £150 a night then we would have been satisfied. However, £235 is excessive... More
