With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, couples across the UK are on the hunt for the perfect romantic getaway. A new study has now revealed the most love-filled city destinations, ranking 50 locations based on hotel quality, affordability, and availability.

The study, conducted by FJewellery, analysed key factors such as the number of romantic hotels per 10,000 residents, average hotel rating, number of reviews, and price per night. The results might raise some eyebrows, as lesser-expected cities take the top spots over traditionally romantic destinations.

Topping the list is Ipswich, which claims the crown as the UK’s ultimate romantic retreat. With an impressive average hotel rating of 8.02 and nearly 642 reviews per hotel, the city strikes a winning balance between quality and affordability.

Though it only boasts 2.6 romantic hotels per 10,000 residents, Ipswich makes up for it with a high overall score of 76.51, proving that couples don’t need a sprawling selection of hotels to find a charming, intimate escape. Coming in a close second is Blackpool, known for its nostalgic seaside charm.

While it actually has the third highest number of romantic hotels per 10,000 residents (12.8), its slightly lower hotel rating of 7.88 pulled it just behind Ipswich with a total score of 76.26. However, with an affordable average price of just £84 (second cheapest in the study) per night, Blackpool offers lovebirds plenty of budget-friendly options for a weekend away.
