The Bell at Sax can accommodate wedding receptions, meetings and other functions in the two dining rooms and bar area. Guests can enjoy a daily complimentary breakfast.

Across the road, Saxmundham Museum offers an interesting insight into the history of this small town. Birdwatchers will enjoy visiting RSPB Minsmere seven miles away.

The food served here comes highly recommended. The complimentary breakfast is very good and sets high standards both in terms of quality of ingredients and quantity provided. The evening menus are also popular and include dishes such as ‘Bloody Mary' prawn cocktail, local rare breed rib eye steak with chips and butternut squash risotto with pea shoots.
If you are travelling to Saxmundham by car, bear in mind that The Bell at Sax doesn't have its own car park. Guests mention that it was instead necessary to use a public car park which is a short walk away. They report that this was mildly inconvenient and that the parking fees were very reasonable.
A few guests mentioned being disturbed by noise from the restaurant and the street outside. However, this is largely to be expected given the hotel's location in the centre of town and other guests found their stay relaxing and peaceful.
It seems that the rooms available differ in size somewhat, with one room in particular having a very low ceiling. Not all rooms have a desk either which was a problem for one business traveller.
