Had a lovely stay this weekend. The cooked breakfast was lovely! Staff very friendly. I liked the trolley available to help ourselves to top ups of towels, water and extra tea and coffee supplies. Quiet location. Bed was a little creaky, but comfortable, on ground level which was nice too. Bathroom grouting could do with a little de-moulding, and shower heads could be a little higher. Also plug sockets by the bed would also be more helpful. But overall, i cant complain and would stay again!

We were visiting Sprowston for cricket and needed a hotel nearby. We didn’t want to stay too close to the airport. This hotel was ideal. There’s a good size car park. We arrived fairly late, but well before the 9pm cut off point. Reception was empty, but we found a lovely lady to check us in and after being shown to our room, we were able to choose food from the bar menu. The choice was fairly limited, but our lasagne was good. Our room was a large, clean and well appointed and the bed was huge and very comfortable. Breakfast was great: plenty of cereal choices, various options in the coffe machine and full English hot with quality ingredients.

Nice venue, a little dated perhaps but it was clean spacious and warm. I cannot fault the staff they were welcoming friendly and attentive. The restaurant was only serving a bar menu which was a little basic but it was tasty hot, hot and good value for money.the venue is very reasonably priced and you get what you pay for, I would happily stay there again. Unfortunately the bar closed at 8pm, but there is a pub within walking distance if you’re willing to risk the dark country road to get to it.
