Unfortunately there was a wedding on at this venue on a Thursday night, the music was banging til midnight and then the noise of the wedding guests went on for longer.
I’ve nothing against this but when staying away for work I think the hotel should advise when booking as then I would have choose elsewhere.
Also the view of the roof was awful and the windows are so old they don’t harbour any noise!

Booked dinner at this hotel because they said they had multiple menu items for allergy issues! Turned out they hadnt. Really well dealt with on the night by two excellent members of staff. Rooms were better in the hotel - our 'suite' was a little tired. Breakfast and lady who served it was fantastic. An Ipswich win made the stay more enjoyable.

The beds were extremely squeaky. Poor soundproofing between rooms. The shower head holder was broken so you had to hold it yourself whilst showering. They had tried to repair it with tape. Black mould on the tiles around the bath. The tap on the bathroom sink ran very slowly when switched to cold. The corridor carpets were dirty. The hotel had a general air of being run down and in need of updating. The receptionist on arrival was not particularly helpful or welcoming. Drinks were very expensive in the bar.

Very disappointing stay

Booked a suite for a two night stay to visit family. On arrival we were informed that there were 2 weddings and a football party over the coming weekend.
The patio of the ground floor room was right next to the outdoor wedding marquee. Couldn't sit outside due to noise and people everywhere.
Our room had broken lamp, broken dangerous chair, usb box that doesn't work. And a terribly stained sofa that we didn't want to sit on it
Then at nighttime it was \"party central\" as all the wedding guests were laughing and shouting, as wedding guests do and in and out of rooms.

Great steak, lovely staff but inconsiderate guests

We couldn't fault the receptionist when we arrived. Absolutely amazing and so friendly. Infact, all staff were friendly and helpful.
The food was faultless and the steak was cooked perfectly (medium/rare).
We stayed in the apartments separate to the hotel. The room was spacious. However, when we arrived back at our apartment late last night, our block stunk of weed and it was all in our apartment. One of the apartments on the bottom floor had been smoking weed and stunk the communal area along with our apartment out. It wasn't appropriate to remain in our accommodation. The staff were amazing and moved us immediately as they came to the apartment block and could smell it before opening the communal door. We were moved into the main hotel, which was really appreciated.
Although this happened, it would not put us off going back again to stay as the staff were apologetic and rectified the issue immediately so we could sleep in a room which was free of \"weed smoke\".

Room 37 in Winter

Arrived good after finding entrance off main road. The reception went well. In the room (no.37) the radiator was making a dripping noice - it was half warm/half cold so I asked reception to ‘bleed’ the radiator. To her credit she tried but didn’t have the correct radiator key.

As a result the dripping went on all night. It was cold outside 0 degrees. So it came on more than usual. I should have requested a room change.

Bar service very good before I went off to bed.

In the morning after a very restless night due to radiator I went for a shower and couldn’t get any hot water out of it. Had to wash with Luke warm water.

Comfortable Bed & Hot Shower is paramount. Sorry but this failed !

Great Staff, accommodation in need of work

The staff were amazing and very responsive.
Food was excellent and staff happily accommodated a change to the menu without any question.
The Television didn't work on night 1- I couldn't get BBC or ITV/C4, main channels. I raised this the next morning and they sorted it before I returned the 2nd evening.
The shower didn't function and the water pressure to fill the bath was exceptionally poor. I was unable to shower or wash my hair, which I was not happy about. I raised this as I left that morning and again it was sorted that day.
Like I have said, this review is no reflection on the staff's attention, responsiveness or motivation to help. My review is aimed at Best Western for letting a gem of a hotel fall into a poorer state than their standards would normally allow. A refurbishment of bedrooms is in need, including some communal carpet areas.
The new bar and patio area is lovely but the accommodation side of the hotel needs some TLC.

I stayed 3 nights. I used Best Western as a base to see not just Norwich, but Norfolk and more. Every morning my breakfast was exceptional. A great choice of menu items and to my joy porridge! (Which is a welcome healthy option). The English breakfast was great too. Friday was probably the best day for breakfast. I was given a really good flatwhite by a very nice hostess/ waitress who clearly took pride in her barista skills. I know a good flatwhite (I’m Australian originally). The room was very clean and well kept. I had a single bed room, with some nice snacks with the coffee and tea (replaced every day btw). It got a bit hot and i did keep the window open, a plugin fan or ceiling fan would be a great addition. I’d definitely stay again.

Disappointing standard

I was very disappointed to be honest
Firstly although it is mid June the weather was only 9 degrees and the hotel heating was off
Guest comfort should be the number one priority and it obviously isn’t
I had a hospital appointment at 20:00 and was advised to not eat anything prior to this
I got back at about 2 minutes after 9 and when I asked what time food service ended and was told “we just finished service”, any decent property would have made an effort and offered something
It was especially annoying when the kitchen was still serving to one table at 21:30
I could have been offered something
I ended up going to bed after 2 packets of crisps!
In the room the television was ancient
All that was available was a partial free service package
None of the mainstream news channels were available
The most exciting thing I found to watch when I was in bed trying to keep warm was Challenge TV showing 30 year old game shows even that first thing in the morning was providing télé shopping.or Food Network showing annoying American cooking channels
Unacceptable in 2024

Mixed bag

My room was clean, spacious and fine for my purposes. Tea & coffee provided, toiletries, plenty of towels, etc.

There were 2 single mattresses butted up to make a double - but it's a good job it was just me as one of the mattresses was really saggy and uncomfortable.

The wider property is tired and in need of an update which is a shame as I imagine it was very smart in its day.

Staff wise, there wasn't a lot of 'warmth' but it was ok.

Breakfast was a bit disappointing - expected a buffet, but had to order single items off a menu. What I had was nice enough but it felt a bit restrictive.

Ate dinner there one night which was ok - but a bit pricy for what I had. Very nearly ate there the second night until I heard and saw the chef with the kitchen door open(from the car park), sneezing his head off repeatedly with no attempt to cover his mouth - yuck!!!! I got back in my car and went elsewhere. I had heard someone sneezing loudly the night before when I was in the restaurant, so I'm hoping it didn't affect anything I ate that night!

Carpark could also do with remarking as it's big, but a bit random!

Unfortunately I arrived and had to eat at the restaurant, I paid over the odds for 4 chunks of almost grilled (raw) chicken on a flat bread and a hint of salad. I asked for chips too and was told they were extra. (in the end they didnt charge for the chips) outrageous for £17 but i was in a rush as I had an evening appointment, the kitchen wasnt though as I waited 30 mins for the raw food. There was only 1 other table.... look how pink it is - almost clucking. Breakfast was equally disappointing, there are few options if you dont want eggs or red meat. I chose the vegan breakfast even though im not vegan, but it was missing 2 of the items it was supposed to have... i overheard the waiter telling another table they had run out, but nobody bothered to tell me. It was awful. The room itself was tiny... the mattress so soft on one side that if you lay in the centre you are rolled off the bed. There was no way of controlling heat, so it was way too hot (its november) nowhere to put anything so tripping over luggage and clothing trying to do anything other than sleep - which was impossible due to the snoring ape in the next room. On checkout nobody asked how my stay was... just happy to charge me. The wifi network is so open I could see what tunes the kitchen were playing on spotify...I left with a bad stomach, and very dreary eyed feeling like I had some sort of survival experience, not great before a 4 hour drive.

Comfortable enough

comfortable stay
carpet and various other tired areas but decent overall.
Obviously trying to update and this looks like a very popular wedding venue

Great staff
Stayed away from the food as my colleague also stayed and his experience was not as favorable as mine.....

Not the best

Small pokey room with a shoe box of a bathroom. Room was not in the hotel itself, more a converted house at the entrance point of the hotel. Floor creaked very loudly, so apologies to the people underneath me. The small car park was ridiculous with no security lighting.

Receptionist was very welcoming.

Not worth £89 !!
