We had a fantastic time here, although not the most modern of hotels the atmosphere and friendliness of staff more than made up for it. Food was outstanding as was service - a great stay!

The breakfast was big however this was not a problem!
Room clean and adequate - the sink hot water was a bit lacking however, we used the kettle.
Friendly and helpful staff.

An old but well kept hotel, very unique and lovely! The room was tiny, but it had everything we needed. The location is nice right in center of an very old town. The breakfast was included in the price and it was absolutely amazing! The proportions were huge and so good, we could come back to this hotel only for the breakfast!

Pumps outside & right under windowsill, noise kept me awake all night. Terrible night sleep. Otherwise, shower, staff, food, drinks, location, parking - good. Couldn’t close window but even with single glaze window noise terrible

The atmosphere of this place is great, we visited on Saturday night and the pub was very busy, i can see why! Excellent food, staff were rushed off their feet but were so attentive, really friendly place and an absolute gem. The staff really make this place what it is, we will definitely be returning.

We have been coming here off and on for several times per year and for more years than can remember. It serves our purposes well for both visiting family and also for yearly RunNorwich event in September. Always lovely staff who are very helpful. Matt the manager is a lovely guy too and runs the place very well. Great food and a fabulous breakfast is in with the stay. I find I eat far too much at breakfast as it is so scrummy. Still this week that’s offset as it’s part of London marathon preparation and I need to “fuel up”, that’s my excuse anyway.
