"the hotel itself is great, rooms are spacious and clean we stayed in a superior family room which was great and had a complementary minibar that was re-stocked. the hotels halls however could do with some TLC , a bit of paint would make this a better review. it just looks a little tired in some places. I was disappointed by the breakfast. the Hot buffet was good but the cold buffet was a bit lacking. You can order some extra bits such as a ham and cheese platter separately but that literally consisted of 2 slices of ham and 2 sad looking pieces of cheese. no selection there, no vegetables. Anything over and above and a bit more fancy you had to pay extra for. So if you are a hot ,fried breakfast type you would love it but if you prefer a cold buffet choice you might be disappointed. The fruit and pastries were ok and so were the cereal but I would only rate this 3 out of 5 stars overall."

"Good location, characteristic hotel and restaurant."

"Not impressed with the check-in policy. Charging an extra £10 per hour before 4pm. Room ready but trying to fleece the customer."

"The hotel is nice location, however the room and most areas are looking quite quite tired, very squeaky floor in the room (100). I was worried moving around too much that it would disturb other guests."

"The only reason that I can't give the Bull Inn 5 stars is due to the really strange lay-out whereby the shower is totally open to the room. Obviously, if you share a room with someone, you're going to know each other very well, but having some privacy when you shower would be a good thing."

"Excellent place to stay. Food was very good and plentiful. The room was spacious and very clean. This was our 6th time staying here and have booked again for August."

".A really enjoyable stay from start to finish. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and everything we needed was provided. The staff were genuinely warm and welcoming, which made a big difference. We had a lovely evening meal and breakfast was just as good. The location is in a quiet and peaceful village and the beer garden was a great bonus. We’d happily stay here again."

"Check in was straightforward, I arrived earlier than check in but was able to access my room. Room was clean & bright & roomy. Large comfy bed & all facilities. Well positioned for visiting Bury St Edmunds & surrounding area. Lovely village pub which was popular with locals. Staff friendly & food good."

"We had no idea how many social problems there were in Thetford. All of this marked our stay from being attacked by vicious loose dogs to loud drunks in the high street. Our room needed new windows but was otherwise adequate. If they are all like then a serious programme of investment is needed. Bar food was mostly nice and easy. Frequently though it was unstaffed as the kitchen is miles away. Why not give service to a KP and use walkie-talkies? Dog treats appreciated. We wanted to go to the church but found it was long closed down and to cap it off we found a dead swan which i reported. Sadly we will never return to Thetford."
