Disappointing. The place is ok if you get a good price but tired overall. How such a big place doesn’t have car charging is so backward. Nice swimming pool and gym but the steam room was out of service, the sauna is tiny. Our bedroom (superior) was a good size, clean design and quiet but the drinks fridge made a constant buzz, not loud but too noticeable. Our shower had little water pressure and although the bathroom appeared to be recently done, you cant help noticing the bubbled up paint on the bathroom door. The breakfast offering is fine but there were no pastries left when we came down at 9, although refilled 20 min later. The lonely coffee machine was painfully slow and needed frequent minute breaks to warm up causing a constant queue. Some gave up and had tea instead. Coffee was fine though.

Handy, easy to find hotel. Selected because we needed twin beds rather than a double. Breakfast was excellent. Beds were comfortable. Lots of parking.

Room had clearly not been hoovered before our stay and had to ask for 2 days before they hoovered it. Shower did not drain well so could only have short showers to prevent flooding the bathroom - again reported it for 2 days before slight improvement. Receptionist on arrival said all the right things but tone was off and unwelcoming. The rest of the staff were very nice.

Well recommended hotel for a short break

Great staff made the stay amazing. Chose this hotel for easy navigation to Norfolk coast for a beach weekend. We were pleased with our choice of this hotel. Well placed for access to Norwich and Norfolk coast in general. Amazing staff and service make the stay special.

Not a four star, but a perfectly decent 3 star.

The good: plentiful free parking. Staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast had a good range and vegan options were available. Location was good (6 mins from Norwich city centre). Beds were firm and pillows were decent. The bad: the bathroom in a standard room is like one of those puzzles you used to get in the 90's. The ones where you had a flat plastic square and there were several tiles, and you have to move them into the correct position to form the picture. Remember those? That's like the bathroom. It's very small. Getting into the shower takes some serious manoeuvring and to be frank, if you're a little bit chunky, you might struggle. The ugly: cleanliness generally was very good. There was a hair ball in the bathroom that (hopefully) was from the previous occupants hairbrush so it wasn't perfect. I wasn't particularly bothered by it, but if you're a bit fussy or a bit "Monica" you might not think that's good enough. Perfectly good hotel for a weekend. Would probably consider somewhere else (or a more expensive room) for anything longer.
