Excellent facilities. Room absolutely lovely. Comfortable beds. My husband loved the bedside radio. Staff lovely. Food excellent. The only reason I give a 4 out 5 is due to murky water in the kettle. I thought maybe during cleaning it may have had discalcer inside that cleaner forgot to rinse out. But otherwise I would highly recommend the Wherry and would definitely stay again

I arrived with 2 young children at 7:30pm and I had to go into the bar looking for a member of staff to check us in. It was a very warm day and I asked for bottles of drinking water and was told they were in our room. There weren’t any in the room so I had to go back downstairs to ask for our water bottles to be filled with drinking water.

Despite booking a room for 3 people there were only 2 bath towels in the room.

The room wasn’t cleaned properly- there was a pink sticky mark on the bedside table and there was a previous guest’s shirt left hanging in the wardrobe.

Drinks were a little expensive, £12 for a pint of fosters and a small pinot. Wetherspoons not 2 far away hence the moan regarding drinks prices. we have visited many times before but now they are under new management. Location fantastic very central to lots of amenities.

This Hotel is an old building. The room was modern and generally well-appointed, but the big problem was heat. The weather had been hot for some time and the first room I was given was unbearably hot, with two fans stirring the hot air around and the (South facing) window only able to open about 100mm.
The carvery was good with a wide range of vegetables and meat carved for you.
Breakfast was not included and I was disappointed at the one-cost for all, whether you only wanted a continental style or full English.

We recently stayed in a king room overlooking the water and it was wonderful. The room and bathroom were both spotless . It was the hottest day of the year so the windows were already open before we got there along with a fan that I requested so the room was at a sleepable temperature. Breakfast was a buffet which we also really enjoyed. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely stay here again.

Revisited this place after 5 Years
Always loved the position of it over looking the lake and still do, it’s beautiful!
Majorly of staff weee friendly,, polite and helpful, however this wasn’t the case upon leaving when I had to make a complaint about the overnight stay.Instead of waking feeling refreshed , I felt tired and drained, ruining the rest of my day.The room was positioned directly facing a roundabout. Continuously loud noise from people standing outside talking, shouting and the noise from the traffic. The pillow was so big and hard it hurt my shoulder.upon waking, an absolute dreadful night.
When I informed reception, the lady apologised that I didn’t get a good night sleep, . No offer at all of any form of compensation,.not even a voucher for a free drink as a gesture of goodwill,
Not a happy customer at all. Mostly disappointed as this was one of our favourite places to stay in Oulton broad , as have a lot of sentimental memories there.

The hotel was lovely but in need of a few maintenance touch ups in the bar/dining area & rooms.
We had a room with a view, a view we couldn’t fault. The main letdown of the room were the lining of the curtains were ripped in quite a few places, a quarter of one of the linings was missing so let the light in through the main curtain material. The shower hose was not long enough to slide the shower head up for taller people & it’s a shame the layout of the bathroom wasn’t thought out better as the toilet is right by the door opening. A positive was the shower was nice & powerful & the bed was comfortable.
We had a meal in the afternoon which was lovely, the cooked breakfast the next morning was buffet style. The plates were cold & the ingredients under the hot lamps were only warm on the verge of cold as we discovered when we sat down to eat.
The staff were really lovely & we hope the hotel improves on these niggles as it is a lovely hotel & we would happily stay there again.

Good, but not as good as it used to be

We've stayed at the Wherry many times.

The bar and restaurant are still great and the staff are still friendly.

The room we stayed in (106) shouldn't really be used for guests. It's poorly laid out and looks very tired, and there is a constant noise from the kitchen below.

It also feels as if the takeover by Red Cat has led to a reduction in staff and some irritating 'economy hotel' measures, such as having to ask for your room to be serviced (which we weren't told when we arrived).

Standards are definitely on the slide over the last couple of years, but we'll definitely stay again.

The Wherry Hotel for one night

The hotel and its facilities are adequate but a bit dated. Food was average but good value for money. Outlook over the Broad is fantastic and makes the venue very special. The last remaining fried egg at breakfast was not cuttable without special tools. On request it was quickly replaced with two new ones which were perfect (don't wait for the request next time)

A room with a view!

My husband is disabled so found the superior room was awkward in the bathroom. particularly. However we hadn't told the hotel about this so can't complain. We managed & really enjoyed our stay. We were a little disappointed in the size of the room & had thought upgrading to a superior room would have given us more space. If we go again I won't bother to upgrade as not worth the extra expense altho' the views were lovely..

Beautiful property. Check in was easy, fast, and friendly. Staff in the hotel and restaurant were wonderful. The property is nicely located by the water and near many of the towns restaurants. The food I had during my stay—breakfast (included), light fare, and dinner—were all tasty, fresh, and well presented. The only disappointment was my room. I got an email after booking telling me that the room looked out onto the roof and the restaurant vents. I’m not sure if this was done to encourage me to upgrade. But it that was the only issue, it didn’t bother me. But upon entering the room, I found that it was next to the elevator, next to the hallway door for this wing, small, the window didn’t open, there was no A/C, and the room itself was old and small. Although “discounted”, I didn’t find it to be a good value. Lesson learned. But if I was in the area, I’d choose to come back here again…just with a different room.

2nd stay at the Wherry - booked deluxe double room with view. Room clean but en suite showed signs of wear, grouting with mildew in places and damp stain to top of wall above shower.
Lovely view but no net curtains, so very little privacy with curtains open, especially with boats moored up outside.
Corridor carpets and decor quite shabby in places, and lift broke on 2nd night of stay.
Breakfast on 1st day also could have been better, long delay in getting replacement food when buffet trays empty, due to problems in the kitchen, however waitress working really hard and apologetic about the problem which was out of her control.
Only other concern was on checking out, went to reception to settle the bill, only to be told it had already been taken out of my account, and had to ask for receipt to check it was correct as not volunteered by receptionist. It would have been more respectful to me as the paying guest, & bearing how much we had paid, to wait for me to see the bill and check it first before actually removing the money from my account without my pre-authorisation.

Grubby, over priced shadow of it's past

Basically this is a tired hotel that no one seems to care about or have pride in. The room was ok, but hazard tape over electrical fittings, dirt built up on the radiator, towel rail, tile tops and skirtings, everything felt a bit sticky like it hadn't been cleaned well. Couple that with the disinterested front of house staff, literally pressuring dining guests out the way at 8pm so they could set for breakfast. Over priced bar more akin to London prices than a grubby Lowestoft carvery. I won't be back!

Not a great stay

Room was OK, had a nice balcony. Big Carvery and pub, but bar shut at 10pm. Breakfast was awful, eggs congealed, bacon hard, hash browns were to well done, it was buffet breakfast. No one was on Reception when we checked in.

We chose the wherry hotel as there was a tribute band on. There were 3 couple in iur party. We all enjoyed the stay.
The public areas were comfortable. Our room was quite dated the bedding was clean but we couldn't help but feel the carpets were not hoover around the edges.
Our room kettle did not work. !( room 204)

Very comfortable but a bit noisy at times

We stayed for 3 nights in room 106. The room was very comfortable as was the bed. The shower was excellent. Tea/coffee and biscuit provision was excellent too. Breakfast was very good, as was the evening carvery, and all the staff very friendly, helpful and efficient. Our only issue was with some noise due to the kitchen extractor/fan being outside our window. We were warned but told it would stop at 10.30pm and restart at 9am. It did stop on time but restarted just before 8am, which was a little annoying. There was also regular noise from what we believe was a water heater. That did interrupt our sleep at times. Another room would probably be quieter but as it was a late booking, we had to accept it. We would still be happy to stay at the Wherry Hotel in future.

Lovely location overlooking oulton broad, the problem was food, very basic menu and not particularly cooked well.
Breakfast as well over done.
We stayed two nights, and dined their twice for evening meals, we wanted to dine somewhere else the second time but walked around town, there’s no where to eat, turkish has shut down as well as the indian.
So we had no choice, I believe they seriously should look at changing something.
I was told also that it had been taken over a year ago since then things have never been the same.

We were very disappointed with the room it should not be let to people renting it should only be used as a store room it was dismal the view from the window was horrible it was room 108 the bathroom left a lot to be desired we only had 2nights thank goodness and were out of the rooom all day the bathroom and bed were not touch day 2 so not cleaned the staff at breakfast were nonsurelant and not botherd but as this suited the ivroment they were working in it was understandable their moral was down you need to walk round your hotel which is in a prime location and sort things out it could be a lovely place to work and stay but for the fact you are not customer friendly

In an excellent position over looking the broad and locks, always something to see and watch. Within walking distance of the park. The staff were all very friendly and helpful

the hotel is in a lovely location but is rather dated - rooms probably need an upgrade with new bathrooms, paint, new curtains and bedding.

Unfortunately there just weren't enough staff! Waited almost 20 minutes to be served at the bar ordering food and drinks in the evening - seemed just one member of staff taking orders, payment, making coffees and then taking them to tables before coming back to the bar.
Breakfast was disgusting! Over an hour's wait from ordering (which also took ages same as previous night). I ordered bacon, tomatoes and hash brown, plus toast. What arrived were two slices of very burnt toast with bacon on, on one plate, and tomatoes and hash brown on burnt toast on another plate! Confusion all round.
My husband's toast arrived already buttered - not in triangles unbuttered as most places serve - and equally as burnt. The toast was inedible and we left it.
The lovely lady serving the breakfast was doing her best but there only seemed to be two staff on and we were told one chef.
It's a shame because we have stayed in the past and had lovely meals, but they really need to get the staffing issues sorted.
The room itself was lovely, clean, beautiful view and location but it's a shame that the bar and restaurant experiences completely spoiled our stay.
