The Brudenell Hotel, Aldeburgh

The Brudenell Hotel, which overlooks Suffolk’s Heritage Coast at Aldeburgh, also has a stunning AA two rosette Seafood & Grill restaurant and sea-facing terrace.

In a breath-taking location by the sea, the Brudenell Hotel offers 44 bedroom accommodation enjoying stunning views across Aldeburgh’s shingle beach as well as countryside views over the River Alde. The perfect place to relax over a morning paper and coffee or quiet evening drink listening to the gentle North Sea waves. Guests are sure to enjoy a magnificent setting, exceptional service and exquisite food – the essential ingredients for a perfect holiday in Aldeburgh.

Stylish sea facing bedrooms have contemporary, coastal themed décor; where size allows there’s a seat by the window to relax and watch the ever-changing sea. Get up early and see the sun rise over the glistening sea on a fine day, or great for storm watching in winter, while comfy and warm indoors. Finished in countryside colours, Aldeburgh facing rooms have views over the river Alde to the gentle landscapes beyond.

Spacious room with panoramic sea views for pure relaxation. The king-sized bed is furnished with duck feather pillows and extra thick mattress toppers for refined luxury. The room can be set up as a twin on request or a family room at a supplement – please contact the hotel direct to discuss.

Pets are welcome at the Brudenell Hotel too for just £10 per pet per night, and your dog gets a treat and a water bowl in your hotel room. Please note the hotel only accepts well behaved dogs with a maximum of two per room. Dogs are permitted in the rooms only and are not allowed in our restaurant, bar or lounge.

Menus in the Seafood & Grill created by Head Chef Tyler Torrance focus on the region’s natural larder using sustainably and ethically sourced fish and seafood.

Dishes include a mixed seafood grill; potted smoked east coast mackerel served with Suffolk beetroot chutney and melba toast; whole dressed Aldeburgh crab and Harwich lobster; free-range meats and vegetarian options are also available. The menu includes sharing platters and lighter bites and nibbles that are prefect to enjoy on the terrace with friends and a bottle of chilled white wine.

Interior furnishings featuring vibrant seaside colours create a stylish contemporary dining venue. A highlight is the bar area offering an informal space where hotel guests and local residents can just sit and relax over a drink or two or enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail.

Outside, one side of the terrace will be devoted to dining al fresco, while the other for relaxing and enjoying a drink or two with contemporary lounge type furniture, while taking in the stunning uninterrupted sea views.
