Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We did have an issue with the heating in the room, it was freezing, after we complained the manger suggested we went out for a pre booked appointment and upon return he would have it sorted
We returned to find the room was still cold, we were immediately offered an upgrade to a much bigger suite in a differing part of the hotel. Well done to the staff
Nice hotel in the square, centrally located well appointed.
Friendly staff.
Nice building, clean comfy hotel room.
There is apparently new and old part of the hotel. My room was in the new part.
TIP: Park in the square at the front of the hotel for £2 overnight.
The hotels own car park at the back is £15!
Disappointing. Asked for a quiet room, was put next to the lift which was up and down all night. Finally cracked at midnight and insisted I was moved. Corridoor smelt unpleasant. Parking on site was £15! Whereas on the square opposite it was £2. Rooms small. Breakfast was good though and staff pleasant
We last stayed here in 2018 and found the place to be a bit tired and the overall experience very disappointing.
Over 6 years later and it’s no better. We were advised to take the lift to the 3rd floor and turn right to find our room. The room was actually tucked away in the eaves at the far end with a high window and no views plus the blind was broken and wouldn’t stay up.
We paid extra for breakfast and it was dire. Poor quality, poorly presented, badly stocked and cooked without care. Semi cooked hash browns, fatty bacon, sloppy eggs & cheap sausages. The coffee is disgusting & tastes like instant if you can ever get it to pour out of the silly pots!
Furthermore the staff seemed to like having full volume discussions about “their jobs”. Also the music is not in keeping at all! I don’t want to listen to Britney Spears singing Oops! I did it again! Whilst I’m eating breakfast!!!
Nice comfortable stay. Shower wasn’t great pressure wise, and was a fixed setting (couldn’t move the shower head) due to the configuration of the shower set up also not ideal for anyone over 5’10 (room number 406) but not a bad a stay for the money . Didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment on the food.
This is a wonderful hotel. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is spotlessly clean. Our room is in need of redecorating after what looks like an old damp issue from a water leak outside the bathroom but didn’t cause us any issues. The hotel is in a very good location and we would recommend it to anyone.
WiFi, poor WiFi, couldn’t host my meeting so had to reschedule

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
This hotel is ideal for a break in north Norfolk and is very reasonably priced. We stayed in mid December 2025 for two nights. The hotel is in very good condition and very well kept. We dined at the hotel’s restaurant both nights and had fabulous meals with excellent service.
The hotel is sited in Tuesday Market Place, the centre of Kings Lynn and just a few hundred yards from the main shopping centre. It’s also opposite the Corn Exchange venue.
We didn’t use the hotel car park (which is chargeable) but paid to park in Tuesday Market Place in front of the hotel which is easy to access.
I really can’t fault the hotel in any way at all. Spot on and we will return.
