When we arrived the hotel looks quite grand from outside. It’s a bit jaded in places, needs upgrading and refurbishing really. Our room was a superior room but was dirty, hairs all over the floor and carpet, food crumbs etc which was very of putting. Told staff and they would have moved us to another room but we had a tight schedule and was going out. On our return there was no staff around so we stayed in the room we had been given. Breakfast was adequate. Would not book again as there are far better hotels local for the same money. Room wasn’t cheap but the feel was. No gym, tiny swimming pool. Sorry wanted this to be a hidden gem but overall disappointed

This hotel proves that if it's not broke, don't fix it. The facilities look old at first glance, but everything is operational and clean. The bathrooms are stunningly clean and renovated. The pool facilities are exceptional - which also includes a hot tub - and you're provided with towels. The only fault on this hotel is the early check out time of 10am.

Second time staying at the Norfolk. Great service and superb staff. Modernising the interiors and rooms is much needed. Electricity sockets placed in inconvenient locations and no usb power points. The loss of parking is a real shame.

A character hotel, all the staff were helpful but due to the age of the hotel the floorboards throughout were extremely creaky. We had to leave very early morning and found it difficult to creep around quietly. Would have been nice to have had bottled water in the bedrooms, some herbal or decaff teas.

We enjoyed the stay, staff were friendly and helpful. The car park was very expensive for guests. The check in time is really late 4pm and check out at 11am is too early. The hotel is expensive when you do not get 24 hour stay.

A good stay with some details that need updating.
An old traditional Victorian hotel, with period features and a warm welcome as you enter the hotel. Creeky floorboards on corridors and what appears to be decor that’s trying to look authentic to the period, however comes across as out of date. The room was spacious and well equipped with things like, iron and ironing board, hairdryer and coat hangers. Tea and coffee facilities in the room as well. Bathroom has a bath and a very good hot shower, despite its dated look. Some unnecessary items in the room, for example a very old looking trouser press and a washing line in the bathroom. Some recommendations for the room would be to upgrade the furniture, as was old and extremely worn also the thick heavy curtains didn’t match the decor in the room, which I’m guessing was meant to be a Victorian style. Also the room needed a very thorough dusting from floor to ceiling. Bed was very big and comfortable. On the whole a good comfortable stay with a few details that need addressing.
