Cooooool!,,,,

The only issue we had was that the room was very warm but, after a call to reception, we were provided with a portable air conditioning unit.

Fantastic hotel

The staff were great, it was my wife’s birthday and they upgraded our room to a feature room for free and they had left a handwritten birthday card in the room. Very nice hotel would definitely stay there again.

Anniversary stay

After booking our stay for our anniversary I enquired with the booking team to see if I could drop our luggage off early to try and keep it as a surprise for my wife. They were amazingly accommodating and even moved the bag to the room before our arrival later in the evening. On arrival we found out that we had been upgraded, an amazing surprise that made our stay even more special. We found our room with towel swans, rose petals and a hand written card from the team. Such lovely touches! The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. There is a little wear and tear if you look closer but it really doesn't detract from the character of the room or property overall. The bathroom is spacious with a lovely rainfall shower, his & hers sinks although it does get steamy as there is no extraction fan. For a single night stay it couldn't have been better and the team at the hotel always go above and beyond to make sure your stay is as amazing as you hope it will be. Checkout was simple, dropping the room key into a box on the counter, when asked our room number we were told we had a overnight parking charge despite not having a vehicle with us but on explanation this was quickly waved. We couldn't be happier with our experience and would happily stay again if we wanted to stay centrally in Norwich!!

Very small room , the room was close to the extraction fan outlet for the kitchen that was noisy from the early hours of the morning and throughout the day / evening. Staff polite , hotel condition was generally good however there was a flood near the breakfast room that was being fixed during breakfast . Fire alarm did go off a twice but only for short periods

4/10 Fair

The hotel was nice and the room was well decorated and fairly clean. The bed was not very comfortable and there was a disco going on and the sound of the bass from the music was so loud that we couldnt sleep.
