"Lovely stay for a few days in Norfolk, in a good location. We struggled with parking on the first day arriving during bank holiday weekend - we had to park on a random street 10 minutes away. So we weren’t able to bring our luggage with us to check in, and had to wait until the evening to get a parking space. The staff weren’t particularly helpful when we asked what we should do in this situation, but they seemed quite busy and stressed. There was also a problem with our room key being missing - the situation was a bit chaotic. So this paired with the parking didn’t get us off to the best start. The room was comfortable with a large bed and had everything we needed. The shower was powerful and warm. Only thing to note was the sink was in the bedroom not the bathroom which is worth noting. The room, and the hallways of the main house could do with a refresh of paint too. Our room overlooked the courtyard and it was quite warm so we had the window open which did mean it was a bit noisy at night, especially over the bank holiday. The food was very good. Both at breakfast and for dinner. The breakfast menu could have done with a couple more hot options for when you are staying more than a couple days as it did get repetitive. But the food was fresh and tasty and the continental spread was good. Overall a lovely hotel, but it could just improve a little in places to deliver the experience they are wanting to offer."

Sea Marge Hotel

Sea Marge Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"If you're looking for a quiet seaside break in a hotel with a bit of history this is a lovely place to try. The large garden has a clifftop view of the sea and a it's only a short walk down to the beach. It's a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy an afternoon tea or cocktail with friends. If you head away from Cromer, the beaches are sandy and largely empty. The staff were very friendly and an evening meal in the restaurant was relaxed and tasty, The building dates from the early 1900s, but has modern facilities without spoiling the character or history."

"Lovely 3 night stay. Rooms were comfortable and nicely decorated. We booked two rooms and were assigned one in the courtyard and one in the main building. Bathroom in the courtyard room was significant bigger but otherwise rooms were comparable. Great location. Definitely recommend booking with breakfast included. The breakfast was delicious and included a cooked breakfast item from the menu as well as the buffet style yogurt, pastries, toast, fruit etc. The homemade compote was absolutely delicious!"

As for the staff:-just beautiful and helpful- each and every staff member is. They simply made our stay. Thank you and hope to visit again soon. Kay Bhandal."

"We stayed in a bunk bed room which was quite small but was ok for one night. Bunk beds were very sturdy and very comfortable. Both the room and bathroom were very clean and facilities good. Breakfast area was very clean with a coffee machine that could be used anytime. Breakfast was continental with a reasonable selection of items available. Check in was remote. All details had been sent in an email earlier in the day, which I had missed, but Karen was available on the phone to talk us through check in. Good location and plenty of food options nearby."
