Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. Bed was very comfortable and room was lovely, with a huge window, though the room could use some updating - just one spotlight bulb in the ceiling and then lots of lamps around made it quite dark with the curtains closed; no usable plug sockets by the bed (wont bother everyone, but it was awkward for me); and the TV was small and not internet enabled. Just silly issues, but it's the kind of thing I would have found annoying if I was staying longer than a night. Would definitely stay again though.

Enjoyable stay at The Bushel

We had a really enjoyable stay at the Bushel and it was in a great location, very near to the town centre. Obviously an old building but Green King have done the perfect renovations and updates on the rooms, it was very comfortable. Our room was light and airy, the ensuite bathroom left me with bathroom envy with its full size shower cubicle. Liquid soap and shower gels provided and the bath towels were massive and fluffy. Our bed was a bit soft and the pillows a bit hard but we find this in many hotels but it was okay for a couple of nights. A kettle and tea tray was also provided. Being a pub with hotel rooms, the food choices were good and tasted great and the breakfasts were wonderful. We would definitely stay here again if we visit Bury St Edmunds. Have to also mention the staff, they are all very lovely .

Very concerned about state of one of food service staff, decided not to eat at The Bushel at all, not dinner and not breakfast. Fortunately, there is a good cafe nearby for breakfast. For the record, the stay was greatly spoiled by atrocious state of 'townspeople'.

Awful room

A comfortable bed but everything else about the room was dire. Black gunge all around the shower edges Only two dim ceiling bulbs working Nowhere to charge a phone by the bed (not a single plug socket) Walls with holes and missing plaster Nasty black stains in the toilet bowl Worn and smelly carpet A sharp edge on the shower tray that gouged my ankle Walls as thin as cardboard Plus I arrived back after the theatre and the pub was closing up. I managed (just) to bang on a window and get someone to let me in. Five minutes later, I would have been left on the deserted street with no way in. No-one told me what or if there was an out-of-hours at arrangement

Sausage was anaemic and looked under cooked. Toast was rock hard!

The Bushel staff were so friendly and helpful and allowed us a slightly earlier check-in to attend my daughter's wedding. The location of the hotel was perfect in the centre of Bury St Edmunds with the addition of free parking. The breakfast was good and the portions excellent. We had drinks at the bar & all the staff we dealt with were great. Thank you for providing a very comfortable stay in Bury St Edmunds.

Great location

Friendly helpfull staff. Comfortable & clean in need of a bit of TLC . Shower looked good but didn't use it... my fault as I was put off by large window in bathroom which had a net curtain, I didn't notice till too late the blind! Very good location for town, cathedral/gardens & Apex. Got car in their car park which is small not sure where you would park if no spaces.
