Second time stay at this lovely hotel which is adjacent to Norwich Cathedral. Great breakfast, pricey evening meals mitigated by two restaurants less than 3 minutes walk away. Lots of stairs to contend with, visitors should be warned.

10/10 Excellent

The room was excellent, spacious, luxurious, clean. I had limited contact with the staff but they were helpful and polite. Whilst I realise it's a listed building the outside looks a little tired. Location is very good.

Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel was totally unique. Our room was excellent with all the mod cons one would expect to see in a hotel room. The communal areas were very inviting. The breakfast was very good offering a bit of everything. All the staff we had dealings with were very helpful and pleasant. The hotel is situated in a prime position right by the cathedral. The castle, museum, shopping and restaurants and bars are all within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
