I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Norwich and had a fantastic experience! The hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. The room was comfortable and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious! The variety of options was great, and everything was freshly prepared. I'd highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Norwich. Overall, a great stay with excellent value for money. Absolutely recommend this for short stay"

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We stayed for one night. Staff were really nice and attentive. Very clean throughout. Lovely abundant breakfast but I wouldn't recommend the scrambled eggs.
Overall it was a good experience and we will return.
Excellent stay, friendly staff, good breakfast choices, very clean bathroom and room.
Big comfy bed and choice of pillows.
Could do with a safe in the room.
Good location with easy access to local buses to city centre & further afield.
Asada on the doorstep for forgotten essentials & snacks.
The property needs painting as most of the woodwork is chipped and damaged. The air con didn’t work and there are no windows so the room was hot smelly and uncomfortable
Very clean, all the basics covered. Breakfast was ok but the area where is ess presented was very small and just not enough for the guests; we were all kind of falling over one another. The staff were friendly. The main issue was there bed. I am a side sleeper but don't like a soft mattress but this one was little more than a board with a sheet over it, making it really hard to sleep and leaving me feeling bruised in the morning. No idea how procurement department could arrive at purchasing this.
