National newspaper The Times compiled a list of the top places to stay for a short trip without having to break the bank. The list included 12 hotels from across the UK, including The Brudenell Hotel in Aldeburgh, describing it as an "elegant old sea-view hotel that's modernised by becoming dog friendly and adding a swish restaurant". "It’s on the up, but you can still snag a well-priced room at the Brudenell, an elegant old sea-view hotel that’s modernised by becoming dog-friendly and adding a swish restaurant. "Bright-tiled bathrooms and beach house-styled bedrooms, many with soothing sea views, complement the dinners downstairs. Arts and shopping complex Snape Maltings and the Anglo-Saxon burial site of Sutton Hoo are nearby."
