Abbey Guest House is the sort of comfortable accommodation many people seek out in preference to a faceless hotel when staying away from home, and with good reason.
You are offered a warm and friendly welcome to this detached Edwardian home, situated in a quiet residential road in the south-west part of Ipswich. Abbey Guest House is only a few minutes walk from the town centre, and well connected with buses if you prefer riding to walking.
If you’re coming to Ipswich by car then you won’t have to worry about town-centre car parking during your stay, as there is free off-road parking right outside the guest house.
The house is characterful and retains many of its original features, yet still provides all the modern facilities you need for an enjoyable stay, such as flat-screen TVs in each room with Freeview and DVD/CD player, and free broadband wi-fi so you can stay in touch with your work via email, or your friends via Facebook. You can even use the guest house computer and printer if you need to.
There is complete flexibility for guests on things like dietary needs, timings of arrival and departure and so on – just mention this when you book, or during your stay, and you’ll find the owners supremely helpful and accommodating. They will always be on hand to give you the “low down” on Ipswich and provide the local knowledge that can make your visit as pleasant as possible.
“A warm welcome and the rooms are clean and tidy. The facilities in the room were excellent as was the shower. Breakfast was also excellent and I was asked more than once if I was okay and wanted more. A very friendly guest house which I would highly recommend. The location is also ideal with the town an easy 20 minute walk. If you find walking difficult, it also lies on the bus route.” – David K
Abbey Guest House is a favourite with contractors, temporary staff and visitors to the many businesses in Ipswich, especially Ransomes Industrial Park, the hospital and the university, all of which are within 2 miles.
The port of Felixstowe is only 10 miles away and is easily reached by car, or on the 76 bus which stops at the end of the road. Two minutes walk away at the end of the road are shops, banks, pubs and restaurants, all handy if you’re staying for any length of time.
Staying on business? You are offered a discounted room rate for longer stays of over 5 days, making their very reasonable rates even more affordable.
In summary the guest house offers:

From Ipswich town centre: Follow the one way system and signs for Felixstowe. After the new University building, take the A1156 (street name Fore Hamlet / Bishops Hill) and at top of hill, approximately 600m from University, turn right onto Nacton Road. Hatfield Road is the fourth turn on the left, and Abbey Guest House is second building on right after turn.
