"Great hotel for a stay by the beach. Dinner and drinks and breakfast outside watching the waves roll in was great. Comfy bed and nice clean room with great sea view. Most of the menu had gluten free options or was gluten free which is great as members of our family are unable to eat gluten. Parking was a bit of a challenge as the small carpark was full so we had to pay but it wasn't hugely expensive. Really relaxing stay. Would stay again for sure."

The Palm Court Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great stay at The Palm Court Hotel, great view, Sea only across the road, was lovely. Great staff and delicious food! Would definitely come back ☺️"

The Coach House Suffolk

10/10 Excellent

"We are so happy we decided to give the Coach House a try. Everything was brilliant. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms very pleasant and the breakfast was excellent - so much to choose from, excellent quality and beautifully displayed. I had pancakes and bacon with maple syrup. My husband asked for scrambled eggs on toast as it wasn’t on the menu and it was no problem for the very helpful staff. We will definitely return. Thank you for a lovely stay."

George Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in an excellent position, just off a main road, but on a quiet lane. 15 mins walk in to town. Rooms are modern with aircon, tea, coffee etc. What really makes the hotel excellent is the staff, from the cleaners, bar staff, receptionist, they were so genuinely helpful and friendly. We had a lovely stay, thank you."

Revado Hotel, Norwich City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This is a nice, good value and well maintained and managed budget hotel. I stayed in room 4 for five nights in June. The recently refurbished room was medium sized and was very clean. It had an en-suite shower room with a power shower. There was also a clothes rack with four coat hangers and some shelves, a dressing table and chair and a good sized double bed. There was a TV, tea and coffee making facilities and a welcome chocolate bar and apple juice-a nice touch. There was plenty of electrical sockets, some with USB ports, a hair dryer and portable electric fan. There is no room service or phone link to reception, but I did not find these to be necessary and it obviously helps keep prices reasonable. There is no fridge. The guy on reception was welcoming, helpful and efficient. There are very good bus links into the centre (from outside the sorting office, two minutes walk away) for those without a car; alternatively, It is a twenty minute walk to the city centre. Recommended for the discerning, realistic budget traveller."
