Stayed here on 5 occasions this was a really disappointing stay.
Room 7 basically an outbuilding garage with open doors so everyone can see in. People next to my room all night so was noisy and people drunk.
Bathroom dirty. No one at reception to talk to about the room so just checked out and left

Once an important medieval trading centre, Norwich remains a popular shopping destination. The Chapelfield centre is the newest addition, whereas a historic shop sells the city’s most famous export: Colman’s Mustard. Castle Mall is underground, in a hill topped with a keep, part of the 12th-century castle founded by William the Conqueror.
Dating to the same era is the large cobbled square housing a 6-day market. It was said that Norwich had a church for every week, and while that is no longer true, over 30 medieval churches still exist. The cathedral was built using stone from Normandy and boasts England’s 2nd largest cloisters and 2nd tallest spire.
Colourful medieval façades line Elm Hill and the Guildhall is another fine example of the period. Half-timbered Dragon Hall was a trading hall, while St Andrew’s and Blackfriars Halls constitute England’s most intact friary. The 14th-century Cow Tower sits by the River Wensum upstream from Pulls Ferry, the train station and Norwich City FC.
Reportedly, Norwich once had a pub for every day, and today’s traditional inns and modern bars are certainly popular with the student population. Other entertainment options include the Theatre Royal and Playhouse.
Norwich accommodation on Booking.com includes historic hotels with pools, city centre guest houses and riverside apartments, all near to Norwich Airport.
Beautiful cathedral. So-so outdoor market. People are very very friendly and helpful. It's a nice city to just wander everywhere, and easy to find your bearings.
Lots of information and a wonderful monument to Edith Cavell, the brave nurse executed by the Germans.
Many varied eateries to match your hunger level or kind of dining experience you want, from street takeaways to tea cafes to fine dining.
I enjoyed my stay in Norwich; no pressure, and I had a very fine studio apartment called Wellington Apartments, which is directly behind Norwich Cathedral.

Two days in Norwich was just right for us to explore the historic interests, shop the Shambles and get a feel for the culture and atmosphere. I'm not sure why it's not a top tourist recommendation as there is lots of charm and history in a relatively small and easy to explore town. Maybe the cobble stone streets being a little hilly are more difficult for the elderly that aren't used to the European way of walking so much, but it seems everyone got around well.

Tombland area was pleasant
Tombland area was pleasant
The cathedral was utterly beautiful
However the city in general looked tatty,dirty and uncared for.
The rubbish bins overflowed
The graffiti was everywhere
The hen and stag parties were lewd and loud.
The pubs were shabby and over crowded
There seems to be a dearth of good restaurants and bars.
Overall..very disappointing.
The city looked neglected and we were very disappointed.

Nice friendly city easy to get around and lots of nice restaurants and bars and good shops
Castle museum does a twilight option so can get in for £2.50 instead of £7-50 excellent value! As a Bank Holiday unable to enjoy the market will have to go for another visit!

City is not the quaint picture postcard cobbled streets you imagine. Sadly the closure of major department stores in the centre gives feeling of neglect. Every street has empty premises. Major fast food outlets dominate and individual restaurants hard to find. Cathedral and its area is beautiful and well maintained. Street market jaded and short of shops. Locally owned Jarrold store worth a visit. Buses to outlining areas very good. Parking for cars difficult as in any city. Local people are very welcoming and stay can be used as centre for visiting the Norfolk Broads and outlying areas.

Such a historic, rich, cultural place which was greatly enhanced for me by staying in the Colegate area with it's historic churches, squares, and leafy river walks . Else where there are two cathedrals and also public and private galleries where I saw some excellent exhibitions. There is an independent cinema with a very good art house movie programme constantly being updated and a beautiful bar. There are many wonderful cafes where you can chill with high quality beverages and patisseries. There is also the plantation Garden which I shall reserve for my next visit and the Castle Museum and Art Gallery with it's lovely gardens. The shopping is also very good.
Situated in a quiet residential area of Norwich, though only a relatively short walk from the city centre. Free parking supplied and plenty of availability in surrounding roads as an alternative. The room was a good size, nicely decorated and had everything that we needed. Bathroom was modern and spacious and TV options were good - Netflix and I believe Prime TV both supplied. A continental breakfast is provided in the room, along with a fridge big enough to keep some of your own things in. Plenty of hangers in wardrobe too.
Everything. Perfect location and easily accessible for the city centre.
Lovely accommodation, spotlessly clean and comfortable. A cosy place to relax after a busy day.
Kay was so welcoming and gave us lots of good information for the local area and beyond.
A nice touch for breakfast each morning : different breads, cereals, jams, coffee, teas provided in the room with plenty of milk in the fridge to make breakfast at your leisure.
Highly recommend if you're heading to Norwich and would love to stay again.
stayed in boutique hotels around the world, don’t be fooled by this one being in a pub it has all the English charm you could want and a great pub (and pub menu) is a bonus. our room has a tastefully executed 20s feel and the bed was 10/10 comfortable. location to Norwich city centre is less than 10 mins at a leisure stroll with some of the cities best restaurants including a Michelin star on your doorstep. bravo GTH.
Staff was really friendly, the room was clean and really nice! We managed to check in 2 hours earlier, and the day we were leaving the receptionist allowed us to keep our car in the car park until the time we were to leave. She recommended some nice places to go which was really helpful as it was our first time visiting Norwich. The hotel is located literally 5 minutes from the city centre which was very convenient!
Beautiful countryside setting. Lovely old style building. Lovely interior. Excellent staff. A chef with a Michelin star, from a previous restaurant and aiming for one at Caistor Hall too. Lovely breakfast area. Dog friendly. Stunning countryside walks around Caistor and Stoke Holy Cross. Old Roman ruin walks too, behind the church. Ten mins into Norwich City centre.
The main building is beautiful and looks quite impressive from the outside as it used to be a big estate. The hotel has a decent swimming pool with a sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi, which guests can use without additional charge. Breakfast was good and the staff was friendly. The hotel has beautiful grounds and a golf club. Overall I think it's good value for money.
conveneient situation near the rail station and a ten minute walk to the cathedral or into town (and its a nice railway station, not a dodgy area). overlooks the river. rooms in good condition. bed comfortable. no noise from other rooms.guests. everything in good order. norwich is delightful, especially if you like churches or river walks.
Great location, it is walking distance to city centre without being on the busy high street.
The property is well equipped with everything you would need for your stay.
The host was quick to reply to queries, and even accommodated a last minute request.
A lovely place that I would happily stay in next time we are in Norwich.
The hotel is located directly opposite Norwich Cathedral and a short walk from the city centre. It also has its own parking facilities. Although the hotel is quite 'traditional' in the public areas, the rooms are very comfortable and modern. There are plenty of staff and they are very helpful.
Location is great - opposite the river which was pretty and on a quiet residential street, but only an incredibly short bus ride into the city centre! The rooms were tidy and clean, and to get into the property was simple. Great place to stay for a group wanting to explore Norwich
Great little apartment, had everything you'd need for a short stay. Easy to access. Location was perfect for us, and a fab little coffee place at the end of the road was a bonus. Host was great at communicating. Would definitely stay again when/if we visit Norwich again.
Comfortable spacious room and requests made prior to arrival granted. Have returned to hotel on several occasions
Very good value on DBB. Good location for working around the greater Norwich area.
Clean, comfortable room with good facilities. The hotel was close enough to Norwich city centre to walk (very convenient) but far enough out to be quiet.
I think it was just so professionally run. You could tell in the care of the small things around the hotel. The staff was helpful fun and professional.
