Thank you for reviewing us - we are sorry you did not enjoy your experience with us. We did try to contact you to explain via telephone and email to double confirm (it does state on our listing) that our bar/restaurant are closed on Monday's as is our front desk so that we could arrange a check in time with you. We are aware that this information is at the bottom of the page and apologise for this but Expedia has set parameters to fill information in.We hope you will give us a try another day.

Perfect, relaxing stay
We stayed for 2 nights, Fri-Sun. Located in a lovely peaceful area and an easy route into Norwich. There is a lovely pub on site, we had a couple of drinks and the staff were really friendly. We didnt eat as had other plans but the food looked great- will definitely make plans for breakfast next time! The room itself was great, decorated exceptionally, fantastic bath and shower with perfect pressure/temperature. The bed and linen were extremely comfortable, and being someone who doesnt sleep great away from home, I had a perfect nights sleep- the blinds are also blackout. Nearby there is a little river and a very quiet village- we didnt hear a peep after lights out

Amazing staff and more
The room (Walston) was fantastic. The bar and restaurant were equally as good and the food really good with very generous portions. The most spectacular thing about the King's Head though were the staff! So friendly and accommodating and incredibly helpful. Really recommend this hotel

Great find
Loved this place. A real one off, especially Walstan, but the biggest thing for me was the absolutely superb food at prices not much higher than you would pay in a chain restaurant. Will definitely be back

Beautiful retreat
We always go to the Kings Head when we visit Norwich, it has a very beautiful garden next to a tranquil river, the food is lovely and the ambiance good. The pub is always busy but is well staffed. This is the first time we have stayed as the accommodation is a fairly recent addition. We booked for a couple of nights and it was excellent. The room was tastefully decorated and the bed was really comfortable. The breakfast was absolutely second to none!! All with fresh local produce, which was prepared with care and thoughtfulness. The staff really could not do enough to make our stay more comfortable. We will be back. Thank you.

Excellent food and service.
Food and service at the Kings Head were excellent. Only criticism would be that our room was quite small considering the cost
Response from Anton on 1 Jul 2016
Thank you for your review. Due to the nature of our 16th century building we have had to work within the original structures and confinements of the building. The rooms have been converted in a manner that we believe is both luxurious and complimentary to the nature of the building. Thank you once again for your comments about excellent food and service. Kind Regards, Anton

Gem of a place
A great find that exceeded all expectations. The beautifully equipped and decorated room was big enough for our needs, truly awesome bathroom fittings...the rain shower head alone got full marks! Dinner in the restaurant turned out to be superb; great choices and all locally sourced food. A very young staff made us feel so welcome and we need to single out Emily and Leigh for making our stay awesome.

Small but perfectly formed!
Lovely place, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate my very late arrival (due to a flight delay). Great modern fresh feel to the room decor. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic hotel and service
Hotel was fantastic. Anton and his team really looked after us and made us feel very welcome from the minute we arrived. The room was amazing with all of the exposed beams, boutique feel and a lovely roll top bath. I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in and around Norwich. The restaurant is worth a visit even if you don't stay for the night.
