Early Feb mini break
We had a mid-week stay. Hotel staff were very attentive, friendly and efficient. We booked on room & breakfast basis but added evening meals later. The food was very good, well presented and good sized portions.
The room, while a little dated, was clean and had all that we needed comfort wise.

Room 37 in Winter
Arrived good after finding entrance off main road. The reception went well. In the room (no.37) the radiator was making a dripping noice - it was half warm/half cold so I asked reception to ‘bleed’ the radiator. To her credit she tried but didn’t have the correct radiator key.
As a result the dripping went on all night. It was cold outside 0 degrees. So it came on more than usual. I should have requested a room change.
Bar service very good before I went off to bed.
In the morning after a very restless night due to radiator I went for a shower and couldn’t get any hot water out of it. Had to wash with Luke warm water.
Comfortable Bed & Hot Shower is paramount. Sorry but this failed !

Terrible! Irish travellers and partying went on till 3am. Fighting out side. Loud screaming in the hallways, with very young adults talking about drugs as the run back to their room every 10mins

Quirky
Half the price of nearby Premier Inn
A bit quirky with a big TV in reception showing an open fire.
Very noisy plumbing was my only main gripe but not the end of the world

I stayed in rm4 and thought the room looked a bit tired and needs some maintenance and decor issues. The shower was cold as well.

Consistently great
Have stayed before and will again. This is a really good 3 star hotel that is excellent value for money.
The hotel seems to be a very popular wedding venue but if they now have 4 rooms in a house at the bottom of the drive, so if you dont want to be part of the wedding celebration you coukd (hopefully) stay there.
Great breakfast and very helpful staff make this my 'go to' hotel in Norfolk
