    We ate in the main restaurant on our first evening, we found the menu very limited. If you are looking for a simple dish this restaurant isn’t where you will find it. The food was nice but a few simpler dishes would probably be a good start. Sharing the dining room with dogs is also a big no no. The mattress in the bedroom was really hard and uncomfortable, probably a personal choice but we would think more people prefer a softer mattress.

    The room was really beautiful and had all you could ask for. Nice touch to have a few free drinks and sweets for the stay. Shower was really good in a huge bathroom. Nice and quiet location.

    I would have liked to control the temperature in the room. I also found accessing the welcome pack via a QR code a bit of a hassle. I would have appreciated a printed version so I could quickly find any info I needed. I felt like I might have missed out by losing patience with QR codes!

    I had always wanted to stay at Victoria as Holkham is a favourite place. We stayed in Ancient House which was lovely and we had a seating area where we could chill with magazines and prosecco. I had a bath and a shower during our stay which felt luxurious and we appreciate the free parking pass for the rest of the Estate car parks. We had dinner in the restaurant - it was delicious, the fire was burning and the staff were super friendly.

    The thing we didn’t like was the reception room it is just inside the front doors. With 2 desks with helpful girls behind. I wanted to ask something one day but there was a resident having a right old moan. So I retreated back out as it was embarrassing. I feel he should have been taken to somewhere quiet so he could vent his anger. We were also put in room 8 Blunt Corner. It was in the courtyard & very cold even though we had radiators.

    It’s a lovely & cosy & friendly hotel. The staff are lovely & very helpful. Food was fresh tasty & well presented. Lee & Ewan are very helpful. But to be fair all staff excellent. Dogs very welcome there.

    Absolutely nothing! The Victoria ticked EVERY box!

    An absolute 10/10 hotel! The staff could not have been nicer, the breakfast and dinner were superb and the rooms were absolutely gorgeous. We travel across the country for work and stay in hotels across the UK and the Victoria was easiliy one of the best we have had the pleasure of staying in this year. We had been stuck in terrible traffic getting to the hotel and called ahead to let them know as it would have meant missing dinner (which was included in our particular booking). They were so accommodating and even though we were not expecting it, they then prepared a selection of sandwiches and other nibbles to replace the evening meal we would have got had we not have been delayed. This was SUCH a welcome treat upon arrival after a long and difficult journey and we were so grateful to the front of house staff and of course the chef for such a kind and welcome gesture. The area speaks for its self, both beautiful and picturesque, however staying at the Victoria was simply the icing on the cake. We have already tried to book again but there is no availability on the dates we required; had there been we would have most certainly stayed again!

    Nothing. We are cat people, so were interested to see how the experience of dogs in the dining room would be - like everything else, it was extremely well managed and convivial.

    We have long said that we would stay at The Victoria, so perceptions and expectations were high. We loved everything, even the fact that the Ancient House (in which we stayed) was featured in a BBC programme the night we arrived. A memorable stay - thank you.
