About The Chantry Hotel

The Chantry Hotel occupies a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse dating from 1780 on Sparhawk Street, with an adjoining Tudor annexe from the sixteenth century, set within the medieval grid at the heart of Bury St Edmunds. Its fourteen non-smoking bedrooms and residents-only policy give the hotel a notably quiet, settled atmosphere compared with some of the town's larger properties.

A lounge bar stocked with books and magazines gives guests somewhere to relax after a day of sightseeing, and free off-road parking, with a space allocated per bedroom, is a genuine advantage in a town centre where parking is otherwise scarce. Free internet is provided throughout the building.

The hotel's location puts it within a few minutes' walk of the Cathedral, the Theatre Royal, the Apex venue and Bury's independent shops and restaurants, making it a practical, well-placed base for exploring the town entirely on foot.
