The Brudenell

We just keep coming back. It’s great for a summer short break. We have a large room overlooking the sea, and with the window open, can hear the waves breaking on the shingle beach 24/7, along with the scream of seagulls. (They started at 3.35 this morning!). Great restaurant. Professional staff, but warm and friendly. Location unbeatable. Lift. Car park.

Good stay Very nice hotel staff are wonderful nothing is to much trouble

Absolutely lovely hotel, visited many times, fantastic, helpful staff , wonderful restaurant, highly recommend

Lunch in restaurant with a group of friends. Long wait for drinks order. Was busy but there were more than enough staff if they were organised. Food was very uninspiring and very pricey for what it was. My toasted focaccia was a very small portion and latte coffee small and no chocolate or biscuits served with it which would be a nice touch for the price charged. Mistake made on our table order sadly but rectified in the end Ladies toilets scruffy. Staff dress scruffy Chairs dirty and several dead wasps and insects on floor which had obviously not been cleaned properly We had our doubts when we booked as the advertised "luxury hotel" doesn't seem keen to answer the phone!! Sadly, as a group of regular lady lunchers, we won't bother again.

Visited for a family meal last Saturday and had a lovely experience. Not only is it a good spot being so close to the water, it is also lovely inside. We all ordered fish and chips which was incredible, the food was hot and the fish tasted fresh. It was brought out to us by this lovely young man named James, who was very kind and recommended some nice walks and places to visit in the area. Overall very nice and would come back.

We came for a two night stay May 2024 for my mother’s 80th. Obviously the location is superb on the seafront, but the stand out memory is that is the friendliness of the staff. Nothing was too much trouble and they took time for a chat when appropriate. We had an issue with our room where the windows were sealed shut being too airless, so we were moved without question. The hotel has good amenities with lifts for accessibility. We noticed that dogs were welcome. Lovely outside seating with an incredible view, and the indoor restaurant also has tables with a sea view. A super place to enjoy Aldeburgh and the surrounding area.
