Basic but comfy
Very friendly service. Hotel rooms are very dated and basic. Bed was comfy but was woken at 6am for the beer delivery which was very loud.

Lovely pub
The staff here were lovely, the room was comfortable with an excellent shower. Some noise from the pub below as you would expect on a Saturday night but didn't bother us. The cooked breakfast excellent, the continental was a little limited

Great location

POOR!!!
Carpet was worn and dirty
Dusty skirtings
Toilet stained
Mold round shower door
Curtains don’t provide privacy on windows for a ground floor room looking on to car park
Room was illuminated green all night from emergency light fitting
Wall paper thin can people’s conversations in adjoining rooms till gone 1am
Service at breakfast and check was great but food was poor, bacon was grey and looked like it had been cooked a week ago and burnt on one side reheating it. Sausage was anaemic and looked under cooked. Toast was rock hard!

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

A lovely weekend in Bury St Edmunds
We had a lovely stay at the Bushel for a weekend in Bury St Edmunds. Free parking, friendly staff and a great breakfast! Lots of character and charm in this 17 century coaching inn and still a buzzing pub until closing time.
