My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were comfortable and clean, although the breakfast options were a bit limited. The staff was friendly and helpful, making my experience enjoyable. The location was convenient, with easy access to eateries and a supermarket nearby. However, the small room size and dining experience could be improved for a better stay.

The hotel rooms were really big and light with a big window and comfortable beds. The staff were friendly both at breakfast and at the check-in desk. Overall, the hotel was a good size and had everything we needed, but it was located at the end of the building.

Service

The service was particularly good, so much so that I felt moved to email the General Manager to congratulate them. The staff were very friendly and helpful, even asking if any fresh food was on the way.

Location

8.0

The location was central to Norwich with access to a supermarket and activity center. There is a large ASDA on the other side of the car park for anything you need or have forgotten. It was close enough to the city center.

Dining

7.8/10

The hotel is conveniently located near a large supermarket and sports club, although covered in cigarette ends at tables. The atmosphere could be cozier, and the decor more relaxing. The staff, especially the evening team, are exceptional, prompting me to commend the General Manager. The availability of shuttle services and bathroom maintenance are commendable, despite the time-consuming nature. Fruit and yogurt availability added a nice touch.
