1 / 8Holiday Inn Ipswich - Orwell
Ipswich, Suffolk
Yes. Dogs can stay overnight, up to 2 dogs per room.
A 60 room hotel just off the A14 in Ipswich, with plenty of space in its grounds for walking dogs.
There is plenty of space in the grounds at Holiday Inn Ipswich Orwell to walk a dog, which sets the tone for a dog friendly hotel just off the A14. It has 60 rooms and a tranquil garden, and the seaside town of Aldeburgh and the burial site at Sutton Hoo are both within half an hour by car.
Only dogs are accepted as pets, up to two of them. The Pet Getaway package bundles a cosy overnight stay and breakfast, with your dog staying too, because holidays are better when no family member gets left behind. Terms and conditions apply, and the hotel asks that you are a responsible owner and clean up after your dog so other guests can enjoy the amenities too. Which rooms take dogs, and if a dog may be left unattended there, are details the hotel doesn't state; ask before you arrive.
The Open Lobby restaurant serves all day, with indoor and outdoor seating, from a hearty breakfast or brunch to British classics, stone baked pizzas and global favourites like chicken makhani, and the Street Kitchen menu adds folded pizzas, sourdough flatbreads and loaded fries. On dogs at the table or in the bar the hotel doesn't say, so ask in advance.
A mini gym keeps you moving, and the lounge and garden are there to unwind in after a busy day. Beyond the grounds, Orwell Country Park to Nacton Shore is the closest of Wildpack's walks, 1 mile from the hotel, and Felixstowe North Beach, the beach Wildpack lists for dogs nearest the hotel, sits 6.3 miles off.
