Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were a mixed bag – while they were clean, nice looking, and comfortable, the attic rooms were scorching hot even with the window open and two fans running. The bar and restaurant were disappointing, emanating a pervasive stale smoke smell.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms fell short of our cleanliness expectations initially but turned out to be spacious, clean, and warm. The service staff seemed new and under pressure at times but were overall lovely, helpful, and accommodating. The location was lovely with a cozy atmosphere and a variety of breakfast items. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with plenty of choices but also some issues with cleanliness. Overall, I found the grounds beautiful to walk around, and the alternatives for food were appreciated.
The hotel is set in lovely surroundings, but the service could be more organized. The location is beautiful despite some restricted services, and the dining options, although limited, are nice. Overall, a pleasant stay but with some areas that need improvement.
The hotel had a lovely outlook, but the overall experience was disappointing and overpriced. The staff was helpful, yet some were rude. However, the location near Bewilderwood was convenient and picturesque.
The hotel had a mix of positive and negative aspects. The rooms looked new and spotless, but the experience was poor due to issues with ventilation and heating. The service was polite and courteous despite some impatience from guests, with additional charges for incidentals. The dining area had some issues with maintaining social distance in buffet settings. Overall, the stay had its ups and downs.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were in need of a deep clean, with some issues like dirty areas and worn-out bedding. The lack of attention to detail was noticeable despite the effort of the staff under new management rules. However, the service was empathetic, moving us to a different room and offering amenities like dry cleaning and welcome drinks. The location had its moments, offering access to Norwich and the coast, but it was marred by disruptive guests. The dining experience was subpar with consistently cold food, though the staff tried to make amends by removing items from the bill.
