We held my mother’s celebration of life here. Management staff were helpful and considerate. Whilst the bar staff were polite, very poorly organised. The queue for drinks was always vast with staff perched in front of the till on the customer side doing nothing to help. Completely oblivious or didn’t care, hard to tell. I believe they may have been inputting food orders, but a majority of the time they were looking at their phone or the scenery.

This hotel is in a lovely location by the start of the Norfolk Broads. The patio area looks out on the river. We had dinner on the first night. My rump steak was too soft for me in texture & felt poor quality. The bar man was ignorant to the type of cider they were serving (dry or sweet ) & showed disinterest, just saying it was ‘wet’, which disappointed us. If you need somewhere close to the town centre then this is fine. The town was pleasant & had a lovely church to look round.

Room was nice and clean. My only fault would be the bath/shower. You could not stand up to shower the ceiling is too low (there is a sign stating do not stand in the bath) Fine for 1 night, difficult to shower I would not stay in this room again personally

Disappointed

The hotel is tired and in need of refreshing. Our room was extremely hot, even the industrial fan provided did not help. No water was provided. The walls and carpet were marked and the furniture dated. The TV was completely in the wrong place to watch. The room only saved by refurbished bathroom with a good shower. We were told that no other room was available for duration of our stay.
We had to book a slot for breakfast, which we felt was more for staff convenience. The breakfast was adequate, although very limited buffet choices. The position of the hotel on the river is lovely. It is such a shame as the hotel could be so much improved.

Very loud if an event is on.

Location of hotel and food was great. However we were advised at check-in that there was an event that night that would continue till midnight. Loud is an understatement, had we been informed prior to the trip we would have considered alternative accommodation. It would have been a great review had it not been for the noise.

Worth a visit

This is a nice 3* hotel, very good reception staff. The rooms have a safe and reception will provide a key. The parking is controlled by a third party so you must enter your car registration number each day to avoid a fine. The breakfast is ok, I am not sure if they have different breakfast chefs each morning but our Thursday breakfast was disappointing, poached eggs had to be returned due to not been cooked. Friday breakfast much better although in my opinion the filter coffee needs to be stronger.

Given the location of our room I feel that a floor plan should be shown on the website as our room overlooked the car park and was directly over main entrance and reception and if I’d known I would have chosen a different room. The room itself was clean and presentable although a bedside clock would have been useful. On a personal basis we found the quilt on the bed too heavy and the bed itself a little on the soft side. We enjoyed our dinner we had there but felt the cold breakfast choices were limited. The staff were excellent, polite, and professional and overall would stay again

Room was lovely and very comfortable.

Staff very friendly.
We were not told in advance of our stay that there was a disco on the Saturday night. We usually sleep well but the noise was unbearable. It was underneath us and spoilt what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend.

Disappointing

This is a restaurant with rooms and does not have the facilities of an hotel. No separate bar seating and no separate lounge - just a few chairs in the reception area. The shower in my friend's room did not work and the plug in the sink was faulty. The maintenance man tried to fix but needed new parts. There was no apology from management or an offer of an alternative room. Staff are polite but most have to cover several jobs from reception, waiting and cleaning. I will not visit again

The large car park was pleasing after a long journey and arriving later than planned. The traditional hotel interiors and our room was tastefully decorated but the beamed ceiling in our loft room was really impressive. However we had very little room to move around as the space was limited. We were very disappointed to find that we couldn’t relax and enjoy a soothing shower after our journey, as we were advised (by a written notice) that we could not have a stand up shower!! Actually we had wondered why there was no shower curtain attached to the curtain pole? Anyway we did enjoy a meal in Riverside restaurant - a lovely table with a river view, good service and food too. Unfortunately the breakfast was sadly lacking, poor selection of cereals, no muesli! No tomato juice either. The full Riverside breakfast was poor, sliced bread toast, over-cooked sausage and poached eggs, plus the coffee was muddy without any flavour. Why is it so difficult to get reasonable flavoursome and strong coffee?

Stunning location by the river

The location of the hotel was wonderful, right on the River Waveney. Our room was very spacious with a sofa placed by the window which gave us a great view of the river and the passing boats. The decor was rather tired but the manager informed us that the room was due an imminent refurbishment. The food was good but the menu a little limited. The river terrace is the star of the hotel, as you watch the sunset sipping your favourite drink. I felt our 4 night stay was quite expensive, but appreciate we stayed during the height of the season. The car park was challenging at times but we always managed to find a space. We would definitely return in the future.

Very noisy hen party

Lovely view of the river from the room. Very spacious and comfortable.

However, stay was ruined by a very noisy hen party downstairs which we were given no prior warning of. Could hear the DJ really loud until about midnight. We did have a bit of a moan about this at around 10.30, only to be told there wasnt much they could do and we were in a noisy room just above it.

Real shame as the hotel and views would have been enough to make us stay again, but this just ruined it.

We were told that we had a room overlooking the courtyard garden but overlooked the car park. No privacy unless you closed the shutters as no blind at window. Staff were amazing and so was the food. Room 1 is not really superior would maybe return if told exactly what to expect beforehand as rang the hotel to check. Room was very stuffy as had to sleep with the shutters closed so no open window.

One Night in Beccles

Lovely Hotel, well situated in Beccles, close to the town with a great outlook onto the River. Very nice restaurant for a meal and breakfast. Great service, very friendly staff, plenty of parking. Hotel is a little tired and our room, No 9, surprisingly only had a bath with a hand shower, not a proper shower and no screen. If we were to return, I want a room with a proper shower, in fairness I am 6ft 4, the Lady on reception did try to change the room, but the Hotel was fully booked. I don't recall ever staying in a Hotel in a room without a proper shower.

The room was a little tired. The bed was too soft, and the sash window was held up by a block of wood on a string. Only a wooden shutter with no blind or curtain had to leave shutters open as the room was too hot. Disco below the room to midnight, the noise of people leaving and clearing up kept me awake until 12:35. The ensuite was recently updated and nice.
The public areas are lovely, with a lovely conservatory dining room and terrace by the river.
When checking out, was only asked for payment, not how has your stay with us been. Seems to shout they concentrate on events and public visiting and not hotel guests.

To leave on a positive note, the staff were great.

Lovely hotel

Room was lovely and spacious and was full of character. Very comfortable. Breakfast included in price was excellent and freshly made.
There was a bath but no shower. For our one night stay this was fine but would be more of an inconvenience if you’re there for longer.

A well situated hotel

The room, although small, was comfortable with a good sized bathroom. The staff were courteous and friendly. The outstanding feature though is the situation of the restaurant with tables within a few feet of the river - always plenty of passing boats, canoeists, swans etc. The food served up is very tasty, too.

Weekend Away

Overall, the hotel provided a comfortable stay, but there is room for improvement. The staff at the reception were friendly and efficient, quickly directing me to a spacious and well-equipped room. The bed was comfortable and had modern amenities like a flat-screen TV, fan, and Wi-Fi.

The hotel's convenient location offered easy access to local attractions and transportation options. However, the facilities could use some updating. The furniture in the rooms looked outdated, and the carpet showed signs of wear. A fresh coat of paint, updated furnishings, and minor renovations would significantly improve the accommodation.

The cleanliness of the communal areas could be better. There was visible dust and occasional debris in the hallways, which detracted from the experience. While my room was clean, maintaining cleanliness throughout the entire hotel would be appreciated.

The breakfast service was satisfactory but needed more variety and freshness. The dining area was clean, but the breakfast spread had limited options. More diverse and higher-quality offerings would enhance the experience.

In conclusion, the hotel provided a comfortable stay, and the staff were attentive. However, the facilities need to be modernised and improved cleanliness in the communal areas. The breakfast, while sufficient, could be better. With these improvements, the hotel has the potential to be a top choice for comfortable stays.
