60 Years Bold
A New Era on the Waterfront
We’re turning 60 — but we’re not getting old, we're getting bolder.
As part of our 60th anniversary celebrations, The Salthouse Harbour Hotel is beginning a bold new chapter. Between January and March 2026, our ground floor will undergo a full transformation, creating new spaces to dine, unwind and experience the waterfront in a whole new way.
Our bedrooms remain open throughout the works — with breakfast, drinks and a limited dining menu available via room service.
As we count down to our 60th anniversary celebrations in 2026, we can’t wait to welcome you back to see the transformation.
Book now for 2026 — and be among the first to experience the next chapter in Suffolk’s most iconic waterfront hotel.
Here's what's changing:
A Bolder Restaurant & Bar
Opening Late March 2026
The Salthouse has always been known for its art, its energy, and its unmistakable design. This refurbishment will raise that even higher, a total reimagination of our restaurant and creating the bar space we’ve always dreamed of.
Guests can look forward to pre-dinner drinks, cocktails after brunch, and evening nightcaps surrounded by low light, a great atmosphere and stunning harbour views.

Salthouse Spa
Opening Late May 2026
Luxury — but fun. Scenic, social and effortlessly stylish. Our new Wet Spa will feature steam rooms and wet spaces overlooking the water offering the best views in Ipswich, as well as deep relaxation lounges and treatment spaces.
This will be a spa experience like no other; buzzy yet serene, indulgent yet relaxed — a place to slow down, switch off and reconnect.

Salthouse Sauna Boat
Launching Spring 2026
Something wild is coming to the waterfront. Our floating sauna boat, moored on the marina, brings a whole new take on wellness.
Think wood-fired heat, cold plunges, open skies and harbour views — an invigorating, social, and totally unique experience. This is wild wellness — elemental, refreshing, and unapologetically Salthouse.
