The Angel

"The coach rattled through the streets of a handsome town of thriving and cleanly appearance and stopped before a large Inn situated in a wide open street facing the old abbey. "This must be Bury St. Edmunds, and this" said Mr Pickwick, looking up "is The Angel".

-Charles Dickens

The Angel easily ranks as one of our favorite hotels. The central location was perfect, the rooms imaginatively furnished and equipped, the staff helpful, and the rate exceedingly good. Behind the simple facade hid a warren of hallways, twists, turns, sloping floors and small patios. The restaurant was marvelous and featured the work of local artists on the walls.
