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.

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.
Lovely character hotel in my favourite part of Norwich. Warm, clean, comfortable and large room with en-suite (I stayed in a double room). Friendly and welcoming staff.
Located near to the river, next to the beautiful cathedral and surrounded by wonderful old lanes and streets. Short walk to the city centre with the market and shopping. I travelled by train, but there is car parking available. Norwich station is about half a mile away.
I am biased - Norwich is one of my favourite cities in the UK :-)
This is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. Perfect location with the city centre in walking distance, yet incredibly quiet. My room was a little haven, superbly comfortable bed, tastefully decorated, plenty of power sockets and storage for clothes - and luxury of luxuries, a bath! Hotel food can be very hit and miss but here it is outstanding. But the best thing about the George is the staff, e wry single one of whom are welcoming, friendly and incredibly helpful.
Although check-in wasn't until 2pm, the hotel was happy for me to leave my car in their car park when I arrived in Norwich at 10.30am for some appointments in the city, and offered me my room as soon as it had been cleaned. Check-out the following day was at a fairly generous 11.30am. The location is pretty convenient - 10 minutes walk from the city centre, but also just far enough away that it was easy to reach by car and to have sufficient free parking.
Finding a hotel so close to Norwich city centre with ample parking was ideal!
The staff that greeted me when checking in and out were so polite, helpful, and friendly.
The room was great and had everything I needed and more (tea making facilities, microwave, fridge). The shower was modern with great water temperature and pressure and the bed very comfortable.
I was impressed the tv had access to Netflix etc.
The room and restaurant facilities were exceptional. Understanding this stay was during the Covid lockdown and as I was in Norwich for work I was looking for an economical choice. The room itself is comfy, clean and well ventilated. The only annoyance was the other guests trumping around the hallways late at night slamming doors. Understand this was nothing to do with the staff or hotel
Excellent stay, could not fault it. Alex the manager was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotlessly clean (even under the bed) which is very rare 😉 Also being able to park on site was a bonus, and just a few minutes walk into the town centre.
I have already recommended the hotel and will definitely be staying here again. Well done Alex and team 👏
Location was good. We were going to the concert "Lets Rock Norwich" and the park was a walk away. The house was very homely, well equipped and clean. the furnishings was nice and the main bedroom had an ensuite toilet and then there was also a bathroom on the same floor and on the ground floor. We were 4 people one couple and 2 singles and the space was great.
Location is very good. Beds were fine. Basically the cheapest hotel in Norwich and it's only for a night so did the job. Fulfilled our request with the beds and the staff were alright. Basically as a hotel which you only use to sleep in for a couple nights max its sound.
Really spacious townhouse, beautifully refurbished, in a great location for both the waterfront and city centre. The dedicated parking space right outside was particularly handy, as parking in Norwich city centre can be a challenge!
Great location for gig at Epic Studios - really funky part of Norwich with great pubs and restaurants. Clean and comfy house with loads of nice welcoming touches. Coffee machine a bonus as well as the supplies left in the kitchen.
Staff all very friendly and helpful. Location, near the ring road, ideal for travelling to all parts of Norfolk. Buses into Norwich city centre every 15 mins from the Park & Ride, literally just across the road from the hotel.
Best location. Accessible to Norwich city centre and other attractions. Staff was friendly and the hotel room was very clean. Breakfast was lovely with variety of choices.Overall excellent and enjoyed my stay at holiday inn.
Cozy hotel right in the centre of Norwich, right next to the train station. Hotel staff is, when present, very nice and helpful. Ideal location for exploring Norwich, would recommend for a short stay. Good value for money.
The apartment was roomier than I expected, larger than a basic studio apartment and better than a hotel room for the same cost. It was spotlessly clean and well situated for the city centre pubs and restaurants.
Lovely building, room was clean and comfortable with plenty of storage. We also liked the lounge area, a cosy venue to chat with friends during the NYE ball. Great location for shopping in Norwich.
The Station Hotel is a great location if visiting Norwich on a budget. It's a cheap and cheerful, no frills hotel but I found the room to be very clean. Shower gels etc were provided.
Lovely clean apartment and a great location! Easy access and free parking. Thank you for making our stay in Norwich so comfortable. A great night's sleep in a quiet location.
