8/10 Very good

Convienient town centre location.

In a convenient location in middle of Thetford. The staff were friendly. Reasonably value for money. Bathroom was dissappointing - water flow for shower poor, towel rail on with no control to turn it off in the middle of summer.Temp control for shower hard to control. General decor clean but a little scruffy.

Very disappointing hotel

Everything in this hotel was terrible. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was ok nothing special for £25 for two people. £105 for one night in a very uncomfortable bed is a joke. The toilet in the common area was clogged with poo We do not recommend this hotel
Jwamer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing service.

Just want we needed staff were fantastic and really went the extra mile to accommodate our early arrival and had the room ready for us. Room was nice and big and comfortable. It is a little dated but generally expected. Breakfast was good also. But staff really made the stay were super helpful and friendly.

The room needs updating, had to wait 10 minutes to get served drinks at the bar, breakfast was average

6/10 Good

Could be lovely if refurbished.

Hotel rather tired although it could be made very nice indeed. Room ok although again, in need of refurbishment. Toilet seat broken, no chain on basin plug so difficult to get out with sink full of water. Bath had standing water in, maybe from a leaking tap? We didn’t use it. Tables in bar and restaurant very sticky.

Perfect for what I wanted. Clean, good sized room, welcoming and efficient check in too.

Thetford stay

We've stayed here a few times and the hotel has lots of history. Unfortunately, it now needs some updating and repair. There were a few areas of the hotel which were obviously not tended. For example, there were tiles which had fallen onto the floor of the gents toilet. They were still loose on the floor 4 days later! Apart from Madison who worked in the bar and was very helpful and friendly, the rest of the staff were really miserable and unfriendly. The girl on reception was unfriendly and uninterested! The bar seemed to have no set hours. Sometimes it closed at 10:15, other times at 12:00. We saw a number of customers refused drinks when the bar should have been still open, especially for residents! Doubt if we'll stay there again 😰

6/10 Good

Returned to home town for school reunion so knew the hotel was central and in a good location, staff on reception were very helpful and friendly but generally the hotel just seemed tired and in need of decoration, shower was warm despite a sign warning you to be careful of hot water and the bath was worn and stained and furniture had handles missing and was chipped. Appreciate it is an old building so furniture and decoration is in line with age of property

Nice place

Great historic hotel. Nice bar too. Lovely river and beautiful little Thetford is nearby. A must for Dads Army fans.
Jason, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Historic Hotel full of character.

I meeded an overnight stop en-route to an event in the area. The location, price and car parking options first attracted me. On arrival I was greeted courteously and made very welcome. The staff were all very professional, but also sympathetic and obliging to a small additional request I had. The room was comfortable and clean, and a good size. Bathroom and Bed both of good standard. Ideally located for an all too brief look around the Town, the Hotel has its own charm, history and character. I would definitely go back.
Martin, 1-night trip

Awesome

It was awesome! The food was great! We stayed in Room 29 (the haunted room) but no spirits were playing except for hiding the TV remote control which we found under the bed on the old fireplace step!!

Lovely friendly and helpful staff, amazing food. Great building, though some of the property was tired and could do with a refurb, though it was all very clean.

OK place to stay - friendly and helpful service - steeped in 'Dads Army' memorabilia. Probably in need of a lick of paint here and there.
