Its a lovely hotel stayed here a few times
Ordered lunch two sandwiches me and my partner was the only ones in the restaurant and it still took an hour to receive them. The rooms do need to be updated.
Nice people
Room a bit small, overhead bed lights didn’t work.
The food excellent as usual
Would have been nice if the towel rails were warm. Dead seagull on flat roof from window
location, cleanliness
lift not working
"Excellent value for money — very affordable, and perfectly located right near the beach and shops."
"The building and rooms are quite old-fashioned and dated, and our room was on the small side. It would benefit from modern updates and refurbishment."
Nice hotel great staff and in a brilliant location 👍🏻
Nothing
Lovely old property the lift is like something from an old American film . The pool is great but the pool surroundings need a thorough clean .toilets are kept beautiful spotless
Rooms could be updated the wallpaper is old but they are spotless.
If your just wanting a bed it’s alright and out the way from the centre so quiet
Wasn’t the cleanest luckily we took our own towels as one of the towel has black specs and a mark Room is small Bed is small and uncomfortable luckily took a blanket to make it a bit more comfortable Was a dead insect on the wall…. Really needs a clean
It is perfectly placed for what we wanted . It had everything we were looking for in a hotel. Easy to find and get to, plenty of car parking space. The staff were amazing, very friendly and so helpful.
Nothing really, maybe the games room could be updated. But that never really affected our experience.
Food and location
No tv reception
Good location, people were friendly
Would be better if more parking but can't be helped
Staff really helpful. Breakfast was lovely. Great price.
Swimming pool was very cold!
We stayed as a family get together and hired 4 rooms. Ours was a superior room and the sea view was awesome , bed comfortable and whirlpool bad fabulous after a day of walking around.
We had a very long wait for dinner but to be fair it was bank holiday weekend and the restaurant was very busy but as we had 5 children it would have been good to have been a bit quicker. They did give the kids free cookies which was nice to keep them going until it arrived.
Everything was great in the hotel and the pool was an added bonus however it was very cold. Great location for pier and amusements Would definitely stay again
Menu and breakfast too expensive And good medioca
Location perfect
Nothing
Lovely hotel on the sea front within in an easy walk to the amusements. The bedroom was clean and the beds were comfortable. There was a restaurant at the hotel but we didn’t use it, but the food coming out of the kitchen looked really good. The staff were all very helpful.
Nothing.
The staff were very welcoming, room was clean . Location was nice
Decor was a bit dated and tired.
Lovely location, pool was lovely and clean, great bar and restuarant, super helpful and friendly staff.
All great
didn't have breakfast there
didn't like anything about the hotel it was not cleaned the carpets was very dirty was not comfortable at all could not wait to leave wouldn't go back to that hotel again not nice place to spend time it was very noisy could not get any sleep people was just banging the door morning and night wouldn't recommended that hotel to anyone.
Sea front
Bed springs very uncomfortable, couldn't sleep-it actually gave me a bad back since leaving :( Snags in the room decor and no blackout curtains Bathroom dusty and smelled disgusting, stank the room out as well when the door was opened Breakfast not included in the price (just over £100 per night) plus £16 pp for breakfast for this type of budget room was suprising Dirty windows clouding the sea views Staff vacuuming at 3am Noisy, thin walls Reception staff incompetent, unable to work around the online booking system
Friendly staff and comfortable, clean room. Use of pool and sun deck.
Some areas, such as the upstairs pool area and sundeck were a little tired/not in regular use.
Atmosphere at hotel by staff and residents so cheerful 😊
Bathroom bit cosy
Nice room with sea view.
Expensive. No breakfast. My wife was charged £7.50 for a bowl of cereal even though i had paid £15.00 for a full english which i presume included cereal which i didnt have. No fridge. No biscuits or snacks in the room. We checked out one day early and asked if any refund but obviously not. I had booked 3 nights by mistake so only myself to blame. Expensive mistake.
Very clean, great breakfast, great pool, close to beach and lovely restaurant.
N/A
Stayed in a family room. Abit small for three people. Room was clean and bed comfortable. Staff friendly and very helpful. Swimming pool was good but the sides were abit sharp. They have lift which was very old fashioned but was very quirky.
My son loves the pool this is our 3rd visit this year we love the staff, location and general ambience
Nothing
The indoor pool was fantastic.
The sauna didn't work. The pool table was broken and didn't dispense the white ball. Dart board missing darts. Lights in our room flickered. Carpet in the stairs was lifting. There was a funny sort of smell in the corridors and stairs. The bar was great but a tad expensive for what it is. A very creaky bed that felt it was about to collapse
I have stayed here a few times love the location and the staff are excellent
I understand but within a few weeks was surprised at the extra cost but was in holiday season so fine
The Hotel staff were very friendly and knowledgeable at the location. The parking was free and spaces were available. On arrival we could check in early as room was available. We were close to sea front amenities. We did not have food at the Hotel as were there for a party, so cannot comment. But dining area looked good and bar was well stocked. Bed was comfortable and full amenities in the room.
The rooms that we stayed in were a little dated decor wise and could probably do with a redesign.
Friendly staff.. Very clean.. Great location.. Dukes restaurant was great value for the great quality of food.. Every night we dined in there..
Breakfast was £15 per Adult and was no way worth it.. Coffee standard.. No pastries.. Toasters were poor.. Meat a bit fatty..
Location, price, staff, free parking, nice dining area and bar
Room very small ( budget) and hot, no fan or breeze in the room
Very clean and comfortable friendly staff
Facilities clean great swimming pool and steam room good location friendly staff
Dated decor uncomfortable bed
Great swimming pool and room with sea view
The location was close to all amenities which was excellent
One thing didn’t like was the parking at the hotel.
Loved the old fashioned lift . Property is mostly well kept and the grounds are lovely.
Breakfast a tad expensive if I’m honest but the bar was reasonable and the staff all of them fantastic but the tall lad big built with black hair is the friendliest member of staff for sure
Swimming pool and location
Toilet and fan were noisy. The room was hot although it was a heatwave.
It was good spot, reception was fantastic but the room size was small as compared to what they quote as family room.
The other family room were bigger in size than ours and we all paid same price which is irony. The price could have included with breakfast then it would have been good value but it was nt
Everything was so good and the staff very good and the food a amzing
Easy check-in , Friendly team
The building and rooms were old and tired.
Friendly welcome from lady on reception. Lovely clean room with sea view. Great walking distance to town, free parking. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Bathroom could do with an update.
Good location comfy room very good breakfast
No entertainment
Very good location
Lights outside lit up the room.
Lady in reception was lovely, polite and helpful. The young lad in the restaurant was also very polite and professional. Plenty of free parking and was in a fabulous location.
Although we had a budget room which was extremely clean and comfortable, it was a little dated. The view was another building wall however we were only there to sleep as were out from morning til late.
I just like the location.
food was to expensive on night time downstairs after finish drink from bar people r screaming n shouting can't able to sleep prpperly
The breakfast was excellent, as was the location.
Nothing - we have stayed there previously on more than one occasion.
Lovely hotel clean not far from town
It was clean staff and always friendly and polite food was good and the pool was small but my wife and I loved it
It would be nice if there was a fridge in the room.
Great staff
The door wasnt getting locked. I had to sleep one night without secure. While, I had wife and children sleeping. Next day, I find my family friends told me that they had tower fan and cooler in the room while I had none. After a request, the staff member gave me a standing fan.
The Dune restaurant was the best meal we have had.The staff were helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Every where was very clean.
Good location, very close to the main area and beach. Free parking but abit tight. Lovely staff, restaurant and bar is nice, didn’t have much food but we had a starter one night and it was nice. Cocktails were hit and miss.
Pool was abit cold as it’s not heated, and the pool area could do with some TLC. Our room could’ve been a little cleaner. Layer of dust on some surfaces, bathroom wasn’t the cleanest. Bin was a little grimy. Sink wasn’t cleaned during our stay. Water marks over the shower screen and taps too. Mirrors and lights could’ve done with a shine. Bed wasn’t made neatly one day, not the end of the world but little things. Bit tight getting round corners in the hotel as we had a pram but made it work. (Would probably recommend asking for a ground floor room if you have a pram or wheelchair)
Staff so helpful & very friendly..Hotel very clean..our room was spot on. Location is just right from pier short walk ...bar at nite was very good ..can't wait too go back next year.
Staff were attentive and friendly
The property has made improvements to the shared spaces but the rooms are in need of modernisation and improvements. The flushing of other room toilets could be heard within my room throughout the night! We have stayed at the hotel on several occasions over many years, but the first time since the down sizing of the hotel. Our recent stay was not as comfortable as previous visits and I’m not sure in all honesty if we’d return.
This was our wedding anniversary trip unfortunately! downstairs is lovely clean and well decorated! Got up to the room and oh my god! It was so dated and smelled so dusty and nothing like advertised!, ridiculously hot, lacked plug sockets, no bed side cabinet or plug socket one side of the bed, and a tiny tv the other end of the room a whole 19"! It rarely had a signal and at one point required retuning completely! Couldn't leave window open when out as we had a flat roof outside so wouldn't be secure, fan we were given only worked on one setting and due to the lack of plugs couldn't charge phones ect and use the fan at the same time, so so dissapointed! Not worth the cost I have to say! Staff were nice enough though!
Good value for money clean and tidy Staff very friendly nothing too much trouble pool good and quiet
Price of breakfast expensive
The position on the seafront . We had a front facing room and the view from the window was the best. Free parking. The hotel pool.
The bath around the taps and edges needs some cleaning / attention.
Everything
Everything was good
All good staff very polite and clean
None
The breakfast the view the room and swimming pool all very good
No entertainment
The fact that it had a pool and was right on top on the beach
The bathroom wasn't very clean ,it was also very dated ,very uncomfortable beds ,and also the third floor still had stairs to access the rooms which wasn't very helpfull
It was all good
Nothing
well our room smelt of wee or sweaty feet not nice when u pay £499. the food wasn't up to much neither we had to wait long time on different days ...when you go in swimming pool they say take your towel out room ..then when I asked for another towel to have shower they wanted £2.50 just wicked to think got to pay for clean towel wouldn't recommend this to anyone nore Great Yarmouth 😳
Staff really friendly
Curtains In Room could be thicker to block out the light
Great location to beach and city centre. Not too far from train station. Room was nice and clean, decent space, comfy beds, not noisy, good shower, kettle for tea/coffee available Breakfast available but didnt try. All for a good price
Room window faces another hotels room window extremely close - could be awkward if both rooms are occupied - would have to close curtains but during the day maybe not want to have to do that. But was fine - just a thought.
It was good Expereince and location.
Bed
Small tv, no signal, car park not big enough had to park away from the hotel !!!!! Didn't get shown were the fire escape was !!!!
The location of the hotel and the fact that the staff are nice
That the kettle in the room was disgusting. It was unusable. I’m sure it won’t cost much to replace with a new one.
Location is good room was comfy and clean
After I booked I was told parking is first come first served but in fairness when I pulled up I got parked straightaway in there car park and have me a permit at 11:00 in the morning so not really a moan
The location was excellent
The location
The room was not very nice ( toilet not flushing, the head board flaking off all over bed , TV not working because no signal)
Great position and comfy bed.
Nothing to dislike as value for money.
The view was exceptional, wonderful restaurant an you are located up the strip a bit further so not so noisy
The matress was very hard, was sure we booked a bigger room I thought £118 was a bit steep for the room for one night 1 child 2. Adults the staff was fantastic very friendly helpful
Very near to the pier and town centre
Well run organised and great staff barman very friendly
Location
Room shower extremely dated no shower light or ventilation or window felt like a sauna. Room very small blights over bed not working and plug socket not working
Clean, everything we could want
Nothing
Only stayed one night for an event. The staff went out of their way to be helpful. Had a lovely meal there as well. Have already booked another stay
location was ideal and room was fine for a one night stay
Booked 2rooms a super king and a double really needed a fridge in both bed was comfy the super king had a walk in shower and a jacuzzi bath used the bath the first night but the grime in the bottom the next day was disgusting to was too small The double toilet seat was broken and the headboard had seen better days
The bar and the location.
Our room - mould on bathroom sealant, radiator enamel badly chipped and our view looked directly into a brick wall and a window of next door about 5 metres away.
Friendly staff, good bar, nice swimming pool, good seafront location.good sized shower cubicle .
Ancient lift, room door closers too strong which is necessary due to type of door lock causing unnecessary door slamming throughout the night and early morning.
It was in very good condition considering how old the building is
You could hear the people in the next room taking a shower
Great location. Very nice clean hotel with good rooms and facilities. The staff were lovely and very friendly and helpful.Parking was fine.
Staff and food
Shower head did not fit bracket
Da localização e da piscina.
O quarto não tem ar condicionado nem ventoinha, tornou se insuportável descansar As camas dos beliches são péssimas.
Location to beach front and golden mile excellent. Dune restaurant served excellent meals with good selection.
Room to small and cramped. Toilet to near wall so couldn’t sit on properly for man over 60. No air con or fan to keep room cool in hot weather conditions, therefore sleep interrupted. Noise from other guests leaving their rooms with doors banging when left to close by themselves.
Great location, spotless, lovely staff and handy pool
No real issues
Had a car park and had a good location. Room was clean and comfortable.
The bathroom was very dated and the bath/shower didn’t look very inviting so didn’t have one.
Rooms good size and clean, bed was comfy and we could see the sea from our window. Room had everything we needed. The staff were lovely and helpful. They had a pool which was a good size and we even found a steam room which we used and was awesome.
They need to have a couple of updates. The men couldn't watch football because BBC 1 wasn't available on the TVs and signal on the TVs was patchy.
Great value for money. Good WiFi, quick check in. Staff are amazing. Sleep quality excellent. Food 10/10. Overall a great hotel.
Nothing! I've stayed here 3-4 times and would choose this hotel again.
Nothing to dislike about this hotel a one night break with my sister. Even when we had no lights in our room it was sorted within minutes
Nothing
We have stayed at this hotel quite a few times, but i felt the need to write a review as it seems people are moving towards these big corporate hotels rather than the small independents. Firstly great check in. WiFi good, and off street parking. Rooms clean, fluffy towels. Good water pressure, and a decent night's sleep. We were at the back of the hotel and had the window open with very little noise throughout the night. My breakfast was scrambled eggs, with smoked salmon and a latte. Beautifully presented, done how I like, tasted great. All in all, swerve the big places with their soulless rooms, and try a trip back to how hotels used to be. 10/10 from me xx
Location
Bed was comfortable No bath mat Decor out dated, where the kettle etc was top was chipped One window had not curtain Would nice to have black out blinds TV well small not wall mounted
Location was nice, car park available at the property, beds were comfy.
Bathroom was outdated, poor water pressure on the shower, breakfast was expensive.
Comfy bed, used the pool every day.
Room 113 very small and no view, noisy. The whole hotel could do with a lick of paint and attention to detail..
Location was great Hotel facilities, very good Bar Swimming pool Restaurant All really good
Bedroom was small Dressing room great Bathroom and shower great Only one bedside table so no where to put night time water or phone no plug socket on one side
the location was perfect Quiet but near enough for Britannia Pier we didn't have breakfast but the food was Top Nosh
the Swimming Pool not able to use as not suitable for Elderly or Disabled we also found out that the Hotel I s up for sale at £100,000,000 so there will be No Refurbishments the brothers don't want to sell but the Grandparents do. so 35 people will Lose their Job's
Location and the entrance especially the old lift
The room was in a desperate need of upgrading no black out curtains, external flood light outside the window was disturbing, was kept awake by people using the lift
Lovely welcome with early parking all complimentary as there was space. Bar area clean and fresh. Room was fine for our short stay, no noise and beds comfy. Good breakfast and pool area was great and had fun.
The location was exactly what we needed. Close to the beach and main attractions but far enough away from the hustle and bustle. The pool was amazing and the staff were so friendly
Nothing I didn’t like.
