Beautiful Setting.

This hotel is one we've been to 3 times now. I have a bit of a mixed review. The room was lovely, clean, good quality towels/bedding and very comfortable. We felt a little bit cold despite the radiator being on 5, so I asked the lovely lady on morning reception for some extra blankets. She said she'd get on to this. She is a real gem, very helpful and friendly, supplying us with anything we needed for the room: tea, coffee, buscuits. Then the lady who maintains the rooms came soon after with a couple of blankets. She also offered to try and find a suppliment heater for our room with no prompting from us..a nice touch, another very helpful staff member. All the staff we came into contact with were lovely. Now the other side of things for us. We sat in the bar soon after arriving and to say it was hectic was an understatement. There was such a backlog of orders for food, we were told we could not place an order for any bar snacks (3 plates) and they would tell us when we could order. There seemed to be this uncomfortable air of them struggling to keep up. At dinner we were shown to our table without menu for a while. Food was nice, but the staff were under pressure and a bit thin on the ground, hence we sat for about 3/4 of an hour with used plates still on our table and not asked if we would like a desert. Not an enjoyable ambience for our meal. Breakfast was uncomfortable too. There was a lady on her own flying around in a panic as things ran out, queues formed. Not good.

Reception welcoming. Lovely bar area for socialising with water meadow views. Mill is historic and the wheel is turning as a feature in the bar and restaurant area. Worth a visit if in the area. Easy walking into Sudbury. Plenty of parking for guests. A good selection of bedrooms.

The Mill. Very disappointed.

Very disappointing. Arrived Saturday lunchtime, front desk was pleasant. Went to the bar and ordered lunch, soup and a sandwich. It took an hour and 20 minutes. Our table was full of the previous couples leftover plates and drinks. I cleaned it after waiting an hour. Dinner was ok n the evening. Breakfast was a farce. On arrival at 9am there was barely anything available, no plates or cups. Another guest asked for bread for the toaster. When it came out it had mould on it! We ended up not having anything and checked out. I’d paid up front unfortunately, so if you do stay here choose to pay at the end of your stay. I’ve been given the operation managers email as no one could help us with a refund for breakfast!

This was a gift for my wife’s birthday and I paid for a standard double room .the views made this room special overlooking the meadows .however I feel room was quite basic ,and on our second day maid didn’t arrive and we had to ask for extra toilet roll and coffee ,tea at reception .was slightly disappointed by this as I wanted an extra special weekend for my wife . Feel rooms could do with being slightly updated..with a few more moden facilities in room .for the price I expected slightly more .

Hotel terrible

The restaurant,food was lovely but the actual hotel was terrible. You had loads of stairs to get to our room. We went for one of their better rooms well if thats their good rooms I'd hate to see there cheap rooms. The room was dirty a lick of paint would go a miss. Coffee marks on the wall. It was very noisy.

Room had a constant ‘white noise’ throughout the night which was very hard to block out. Shower needs new silicone in the corners as did look brown/black. Cobwebs on wall and edge or carpet looked grimy.

Situated in a picturesque spot in central Sudbury, The Mill is an attractive and welcoming building and our party was mostly satisfied with our stay. 3 in one room meant we had to use (and expected to) the pull out bed which turned out to be very uncomfortable and not the cleanest. I got the short straw and preferred to sleep with the cushions on the floor. Otherwise room was fine. Breakfast busy but also satisfactory if not sensational. The facilities at The Mill are looking just a tad tired and Im sure it wont be long before its owners will need to update / refresh aspects of the place. Staff friendly and polite. Lots of steep stairs!! (To our part of the hotel in any case)
