Top Gissing Hotel Reviews

Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel staff reception was very helpful. We could not find the room, staff reception walked with us to make sure we would be okay. After swimming, pool area could do with an update: changing area, swimming area itself. Pool was good. Tried to go for a nibble at the bar, was too late: we got there after 8PM. Sat there with two hungry children, noting could be made or organised. They left us with two hungry children… this could be better! Otherwise we enjoyed our visit!"

Holiday Inn Norwich City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my family stayed here twice over the past three weeks and we really enjoyed our stays. In the height of summer the air-con was such a blessing, as the other hotels we have stayed in did not have ac, which made sleep incredibly difficult. The staff (in general) were pleasant and accommodating. We stayed in a stadium facing room, which the kids loved but the rooms are a bit tired and could do with a refurb. One of our bathrooms had water damage on the ceiling, which was concerning and issues with the toilet but the property manager was great and fixed the water issue for us promptly. The staff covering the bar in the evenings were super friendly and made us feel really welcome. The rooms are also pretty sound-proofed. Things to improve: Free or discounted parking would be appreciated, especially for longer stays and a mini fridge and a safe in the room would be great."

The Bell Hotel Thetford by Greene King Inns

8/10 Good

"Rooms are comfortable and very clean. Breakfast is cooked to order and of an excellent quality. The staff are all helpful and efficient. The hotel is ideally situated for access to the town centre, Dad's Army Museum, bus station and is about 15 minutes' walk from the train station. The bar is welcoming and serves a good selection of drinks. There is a small outdoor courtyard area in which to sit if the weather permits. On the negative side, the hotel is definitely in need of some refurbishment and painting, plus replacement of carpets."
