The Northgate, Bury St. Edmunds
About the Hotel
Cool, quirky rooms
The Northgate offers rooms that emphasize luxury, comfort and tranquility. Guests can enjoy chilled Champagne upon arrival, super king size beds, and stand-alone bathtubs. Some rooms feature deep-toned walls with patterned cream and mushroom curtains that frame large sash windows overlooking the garden. There is a pale green and cream themed room featuring three large sash windows and an open shower room with a pale wooden floor. One cool and quirky room has a palette of 49 shades of grey. The main bedroom features an adjoining, deep plum, split-level ensuite with a large walk-in shower. Families might like the two linked double bedrooms with twin beds in the second room. Each ensuite includes deep cream tiles and linen blinds, washed wooden floors, a wash stand, and a unique open shower room.
Seasonal British Cuisine
The Northgate presents Modern British menus crafted by Head Chef Greig Young, who focuses on East Anglia provenance. Menus change with the seasons, offering Lunch Club set menus, Chef's Choice small plates, and relaxed snacks. Guests can spend evenings enjoying seasonal favorites from the a la carte menu and daily specials. The hotel is transforming a Victorian townhouse into a vibrant restaurant, cocktail bar, and chef's table. Guests can start their stay with a festive cocktail in the bar, which celebrates the building's Victorian heritage and connects to the largest outdoor terrace in Bury St Edmunds via wallpaper design.
Leisure and exploration
Guests can consider frosty morning walks, honey-colored sunrises, and afternoons in the bar. The Northgate provides access to activities such as enjoying January nights in one of the corners. Guests can also listen to hooves thundering past while enjoying champagne. Chefs will create a picnic hamper for adventures on 8 hectares of land, for exploring on foot or by bicycle, for picnics, dog walks and spotting local wildlife.
