    nothing although if you are on foot, the trog up the hill from town kept us fit! Nothing reasonably fit people can't handle or reward themselves after with a drink at the hotel bar. :)

    excellent choice for breakfast! Very friendly staff on hand such as Michelle and the lady who checked us in during the bingo! It seems a lot of pubs interact very well with each other in Norwich, pool tournaments, bar billiards etc. People were friendly everywhere in fact.

    Nothing.. It done what it was suppose to do.. Accommodation purposes.

    I enjoyed the facilities in my room, not often do you get a coffee machine, fridge a brilliant idea, portable tables to work or eat from, iron and ironing board, safe, good size bathroom, bed was clean and comfy, happy I was ground floor, with mobility problems, I think 2 rooms ground floor and the family rooms and other rooms upstairs. Had a party on nextdoor bar so enjoyed the music, liked the Historic building.. Got taxis there has unsure of walking up hill and not sure how far away it was etc. But walked back to train station took me a little longer 22mins. 15mins for a good walker. Reasonable size back garden, was lovely with sun shining a covered area with TV. Staff were welcoming. Had a relaxing evening 👍. Had a good breakfast which was included in price. Nice cooked breakfast, help yourself to Fruit juice, cereal, fruit etc.

    The noise when there is a private party in the pub downstairs. The party stopped at a reasonable time though (23h)

    Quiet neighborhood. Nice and clean family room. Good breakfast.

    A little noisy on one night because of a private party in the bar, but it is a pub, so a little noise is to be expected.

    A great location in a quiet residential area, yet within easy reach of Norwich city centre. Plenty of parking. Fantastic breakfast and comfortable room.

    The shower pressure was amazing. Better than some of the 4/5 stars hotels. It seemed to be a very busy local pub but I didn't hear any disturbances. Breakfast was more than adequate. The price was reasonable for a pub b&b.

    I thought the cars that parked close to my window could be kept at least a metre away, especially as I felt that people could look into my room. Otherwise all was good. Although the property was not that stylish, it had a charm - a vintage look. At a time where all b&bs look the same, this was original.

    The location was great - not in the centre of Norwich and only a 15-20 min walk from castle. It only took five minutes to drive from the station. For a pub, it was quiet and the staff were very helpful. Lorraine was welcoming and helpful. The area is full of lovely properties which create a country atmosphere, and I felt safe walking here during the day. Generous serving of breakfast with many options.

    Great location. Barman and the lady chef were really friendly with nothing being too much trouble. Dinner and breakfast were great and we really appreciated the early breakfast which was yum and set us up for the day.

    We found the property a little bit run down not very well maintained especially the outside of the property. When you look at photos of the property it looks maintained. The bathroom was recently renovated but not totally finished with nowhere to put toiletries. It was nice and clean.

    We liked the staff and the cooked breakfast.

    Great location, very cosy room, very kind staff. The b&b is inside the pub, so very convenient for food and drinks. It was quiet when I was there but I guess it can be more crowded during the weekends.

    They were not able to provide an evening meal but this is not a major problem as it is a 10 minute walk to town. I would have preferred an firmer mattress.

    The staff were very welcoming and helpful. I was able to store my bike within the hotel. Room was large and well equipped with good sized TV, kettle and even a coffee machine. Good en suite. Very good full vegetarian breakfast.

    Neither of these issues bothered us, but: (i) be aware that the hotel is at the top of a steep hill; (ii) the building is comfortable but not picturesque. Other hotels in Norwich are more beautiful (at the appropriate price!).

    Excellent value for money. This is a B&B part of a pub. The location is fairly good for the city centre; it is on the same side of the city as the railway station (and the cathedral, which is what we were visiting), the room was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. On one of the nights we stayed there, the pub had a party, but the noise did not disturb us in our room. We should definitely consider coming back again.
