The room was clean and tidy, staff were pleasant and helpful. The food in the restaurant was good and varied. The only drawback for us was the lack of a cooked breakfast. I didn't like the continental offering, There was however a fridge in the room. We took our dog with us for which we paid 35 pounds there was nothing provided for the dog

Staff were lovely and helpful. Room was comfortable. Place is looking a bit tired and needs a bit of work- chipped paint work and dirty carpets. Our outside balcony certainly needed a good clean.
On arrival, we went in for Sunday carvery. The meat was lovely and presented nice, but vegetables were all dried up as if they had been sitting for a while. We noticed other guests waiting until fresher food had come out. Unfortunately it put us off and we didn’t eat there for the rest of the week.
It’s such a shame as it has the making’s of a great hotel, especially with it being dog friendly.
We have recommended it to friends who have a dog.

Parking is good, the room was spacious, but a little bit tired tbh. The breakfast is supplied in your room (cereal etc). The most disappointing aspect was the evening meal. I had fish and chips, I ordered it and it appeared literally within a minute. The fish was not fresh, the chips were not twice fried homemade as per the menu, but frozen chips and the peas were dry, I left most of it. I told the waiter and was just told that he would feedback to the kitchen.

Perfect room for us. We were on the top floor, others may not have liked the sloping ceiling but it was surprisingly cool up there. The breakfast hamper was really fantastic, and having a fridge really helped on a hot few days. The beach is a few minutes walk away and it is a quiet location with space outside. It is fully dog friendly which is great. The bar environment is nice but the food that we ordered in the restaurant was underwhelming for the price. The TV didn't seem to use the aerial, just internet, e.g. going to BBC One would open iPlayer, but we did not care about this and it is probably easily sorted. Would absolutely stay here again.

On arrival radiator in room not working and still not working when we left after 3 nights . Day 2 we had electric heater provided. Continental breakfast was poor no fruit juices or fresh or fruit cocktail ( or tinned. No bread or toast machine butter or preserves . Small boxes of cereals and unappealing croissants were there. Although this is our personal opinion other guests were saying the same to us.
The general
Manager was very nice and needs a medal trying to get things sorted . The kitchen is contracted to outside. Caterers who are not under her control.
I politely but firmly Made my complaints . The bar service was good and was well stocked.

We booked a family room, and fairly last minute. Paid a good price for it. A very friendly welcome, our family room was top of the building, a very warm day you kind of expect a building to get warm, but as we approached our room it got hotter, opened the door, someone had left the heating on in our room, and it was crazy hot. We opened the windows to let the heat out. We found the room neat and tidy, but the decor looking a bit tired, the carpet i think could be deep cleaned, alot of hair on the carpet, we found some crumbs and bits along the walls on the floor. The bathroom door had had a dodgy varnish job at some point. In the bathroom was an odd stain on the floor in the corner. Above the sink were some holes in the wall where im thinking attempts had been made to put the small shelf. The furniture looked very tired and old, the dresser with the cups and drinks on had lots of water marks all over it. The beds we found a little soft, we are used to a firmer mattress. The room was warm all night so we had windows open, and listened to the rain. Everytime one of us moved in the bed the headboard rattled the wall. The staff were very friendly, helpful and kind. I dont know if we just got unlucky with our room.

The lady on reception was very pleasant on arrival and helpful. After that point things went downhill. The family room was very run down and the carpet had both dog and human hair in it. It clearly had not been hoovered before we arrived. The walls were marked badly and as usual the family room was la ed in the attic of the building. Such a shame because the location lends itself to being a great hotel!

Just returned home from an incredible stay. The hotel is perfectly located for the beach/train station and the view from our room (no:18) was breathtaking. I would highly recommend this hotel, the cleanliness throughout and also the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. We had dinner and breakfast, both were fantastic. We took our 1yr old Cavapoo and he had the time of his life, he enjoyed looking out of the balcony from room 18. We will be visiting again soon.

The main issue was no heating in the bedroom we were booked in (7) so we were moved to (5) which also did not have heating.
Furthermore, there was no hot water so we had to boil a kettle to wash.
The receptionist promised to report our complaints to management but, even after I sent emails, no response.
The hotel should not be open to paying guests until the services are working.
We wish to have a 50% refund - please could you arrange this?

This was our first time back in over a year since under new management.
We had the most lovely breakfast hamper in our room of yogurts , fruit ,museli , fresh milk , honey with tea coffee chocolate & juices.
This was so much better for us personally as did not have to rush up to go down to breakfast in the morning giving us a much more relaxed approach to the day ahead .
It was replenished if you put your sign on door next morning.
I much preferred the layout of the bar area tables & chairs in the pub , and decorated tastefully Halloween .
We booked a table in the restaurant for the evening and the food did not disappoint. Both hubby & I had the plentiful rump steak which was cooked on the grill to perfection .
A short walk to Runton beach via public footpath from road .
Can’t wait to come back loved our stay 10/10 !

Mini break

We very much enjoyed the hotel and its setting.How ever we we had booked a table for lunch but was not one available and had to wait for one lunch was chaos i got my carvery 40 minutes after my husband as we had to que separately as we had our dog with us. There was also menus on display showing two different prices for the carvery .we were charged the dearer one when i queried it with a waitress she said it was a mistake and they only had the unlimited carvery ! Price. As i am only a small person i cerainly couldnt eat any more then one plate of food .

2 adults 2 kids base for Cromer

First time stay here for a family of 2 adults and 2 pre-teen children. We generally struggle to find accomodation with 3 beds rather than 2 doubles so we pounced on this place. We stayed for one night on a spur of the moment decision to visit Norfolk.

I regularly stay in hotels and found this to be a neat and tidy place, well situated for those enjoying North Norfolk.

Staff were friendly, bar was fine. Can't comment on the food in the restaurant as we had booked to eat elsewhere.

Room was fine for our needs and we would certainly stay again. The only two negatives we noted as a family were: wifi signal was very poor (but we were in the attic room) and the mixer taps/shower - it was either stupendously hot or cold. This wouldn't be enough to put us off.

I've read a cpuple of comments about the (non) breakfasts. We didn't care a jot, the bits in the box and fridge were perfectly ample for us.

We travelled into Cromer a couple of times and then further westwards.

Nice hotel, would stay again.

One night family stay

Our room was very hot. The staff were good and supplied 2 fans but only 1 worked. One of the beds was a camp bed and not very comfortable. The road noise was quite high.

The price was good though, so reasonable value.

Great location and clean, staying in the family room in the loft which was small in height and had no shower, just a bath tub and shower hose at bath height due to the height of the room. The room in the loft was so hot in the summer and felt very cramped. Sunday dinner downstairs was very good.

I can't beleive this place wasn't busier!
Excellent service from a young and enthusiastic staff. Large well stocked bar inside and a lovely big outside seating area with screens, with a view of the sea. Dinner was excellent, we can recommend the paella.
Someone has had the brilliant idea of a breakfast hamper in the room. And you'll find this hard to believe but you actually get a pint of milk in the fridge, not those horrible sachets! I hope the hamper and milk idea catches on.
No aircon and a bit of road noise during the day but that's fine. Easy 10 minute walk to the sea.

We stayed in the balcony room with the bath in the room (room 18). Sea view was gorgeous, the room was spacious (despite being in the attic!) and immaculately clean. Check in was easy and we enjoyed drinks in the bar. We did not eat at the hotel but the breakfast hamper was a nice touch, as was the fridge in the room with fresh milk and some treats. Perfect location to walk to the beach and to Rocky Bottoms for dinner/seafood. We were not bothered at all by noise from the bar as other reviews have mentioned - even on a Friday night it was all quiet by 10:30. We will be back!

Breakfast was a disappointment

Our room was clean, the bedding was of a good quality. We had a sea view. What we didn’t like was the fact we didn’t get our breakfast in the dining room. Breakfast was a hamper already in our room when we arrived and to be eaten in our room. We thought the hamper should have included a fresh fruit salad and a better quality yoghurt.

This was really serviced accommodation rather than as advertised— a hotel. Room well appointed, excellent bed, bedding and towels. Fridge with snacks and a breakfast basket. But- could not get shower to produce hot water, taps only lukewarm. No receptionist to ask as the restaurant and bar run by another company.
No reply from hotel management when I later wrote to them with these points.
Disappointing for the high price- we had the luxury room.
Also no help with luggage up 2 flights steep stairs as no ‘hotel’ staff.

Beautiful views

This a lovely hotel with sea views. The staff are very freindly and accommadating. The hotel was easy to get to and had plenty of parking. We were booked to have a cooked breakfast but they changed this to a continental in your room. It was cold porridge pots and muffins. There was granola with dried fruit with milk in the fridge. It would have been nice to have porridge pots that needed boiled water and Croissants. There was no extra fan in bathroom and the doors had no soft hunges. This meant from as early as 6am people were slamming doors.

No cooked breakfast. Cold selection of carbs and yoghurt in room. Repeated issue with fuse tripping so no kettle or phone charging at odd times and then need to find staff.
Thought I requested a quiet room. . . am 60 plus single female travelling alone. Room was facing the road, music playing outside under window until close, and bright lights shining in through thin curtains. Only did a 2 night stay. Would not rush back.

However did have slat and pepper squid as a start and it the best thing about the whole stay! 😊👍

Staff were polite and pleasant, and helped when asked. 👍

Very comfortable, lovely family room that my 14 year old loved. Dinning area and bar very friendly,helpful and a pleasant place to be. Food good. Our only complaint was the shower had hardly any pressure, so i got up at 5.30am for a shower, before anyone else so i had more than a drip. Other than that perfect.

The hotel looks great inside and out but you could hear everything that was going on in the bar downstairs from kids playing on the piano to loud music! There was no door to our shower so you had to shower in the corner so as the bathroom floor didn’t get soaked. The biggest disappointment was the breakfast, to pay £135 for the night and only get a bowl of muesli and Tesco basics yogurt and a few other bit was very disappointing to say the least, nowhere on the website did it say it was a continental breakfast.

cooked breakfast was taken of the menu the day before we arrived and replaced by a hamper in our bedroom containing muesli and dried fruit, this was a complete insult to us as the english cooked breakfast comes as part of our break. in the three days that we were there, apart from the bin rubbish being collected, no other cleaning was done in the room, although we complained.

My husband and i booked an overnight stay for valentines day, we were greeted warmly by very friendly staff, the hotel itself was very inviting with beautiful decor and a relaxed vibe our dining experience was lovely amazing food served by a very sweet waitress followed by a delicious breakfast the next day. Our room was perfect, spotlessly clean with everything accessible for an overnight stay, we loved the little valentines touches added to our stay little heart chocolates on our pillows and beautiful red roses on the dining table for dinner followed by a fantasic jazz band playing throughout the evening. We would both highly recommend visiting this hotel it did not disappoint, we will certainly be visiting again soon.

Great staff here with the kids and dog. Couldn’t believe how welcoming the place is for dogs. Lovely bar area where we met many other dog owners and had a few drinks. We played some pool and board games. We had a nice carvery in the evening and a very large breakfast the following day.

The staff are super friendly and will help with anything you need. There’s a really easy, 5 min, walk to the beach.

Only downside - our room was on the top floor, which means it had very low ceiling I struggled with (I’m 6ft 3) and we could hear the people in the next room. Minor inconvenience given the price and quality of everything else

Thumbs up for The Dormy House

We often return to Dormy House if we are in the area. We like that the breakfast is included in the price and that the check out time being 11am is later than other hotels in the area. The location is good, you can walk a path alongside some fields down to the beach. Staff are friendly, the hotel has a relaxed atmosphere and a lovely bar area. The prices are very competitive as a last minute booking compared to other hotels of the same standard . All in all very good although some rooms are not well sound proofed and you can hear music from the bar or your next door guests. Another plus is if you have a dog they only charge a small amount per stay unlike their neighbouring competition. I’m sure with a quick call to the helpful reception staff prior to arriving they could advise which rooms would be quieter.

Problems but sorted

Unfortunately The Dormy House had plumbing issues so they rang us in the morning while we were driving up to Norfolk and offered to find another hotel booking for us, which they did and we stayed at the Clifftonville Hotel in Cromer. I noticed the room rate was cheaper but we had a good room, although with twin beds, and an excellent breakfast.
