Lunchtime menu was only basic sandwiches with cheap bread. Everything else about stay was very good, just avoid lunch.

In the historic centre of Norwich near the cathedral and restaurants. 5 minute taxi ride from the train station. Rooms are of a good standard and the WinePress (Michelin rosette restaurant) is very good. Use it as a base to explore the North Norfolk Coast. My only criticism was that my room was roadside and busses ran until after midnight. Ask for a quiet room.

nice old-world charm and comfort but a challenge to get to from rooms which are up and down old staircases along old narrow and uneven corridors - not for anyone with mobility issues! But we had a good stay with welcoming staff, a pleasant bar and comfortable room. :)

The location is excellent, a few minutes' walk from the cathedral through cobbled streets with jettied buildings. Walk a little north over the Wensum and there are multiple opportunities to browse antiques and hunt for bargains in the charity shops and a fine record store. The hotel is well-appointed, staff are very helpful, the bed was exceptionally comfortable. Top marks.
