Top Great Yarmouth Hotel Reviews
The Cliff Hotel
"Lovely hotel with clean bright rooms. Bed was extremely large and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was excellent"
Wellesley Park Hotel
"Check in a was very simple. The gentleman who greeted us was very helpful, he told us we was able to get takeaway and eat within the room. It was within about a 10-15 minute walk to the main town ( we had 2 young children with us) we had a big spacious room on the ground floor. The room was clean and fresh, with towels for our stay, kettle with tea coffee and hot chocolate and milk. Plenty of storage. The only thing was the neighbours were incredibly noisy one night in the middle of the night but luckily it didnt wake our children. I would definitely consider staying here again. Very comfortable rooms and a great price :-)"

"The room and bed were very comfortable. We would have liked a fridge in the room, that was the only thing missing. Breakfast was really nice, good options from both the menu and buffet. The location was fantastic and the food in the bar was really tasty and big portions too."
