Terrible nights sleep
Pros:

Staff from cleaner to servers at bread source and pizza restaurant whose thoughtful touches such as a birthday card made me consider coming back as felt so welcome. Lady on phone helping me out when I forgot my room code thank you! Honestly all staff 10 out of 10.

Cons:

Uncomfortably soft bed in the Raj room was horrible to sleep in and very hot room in the morning, this combined with early check out made me feel like it wasnt a comfortable nights stay. The previous china room was much better and would advise that if booking. I


was disappointed with this room and wont be booking again.

Good value generally and a nice lively vibe 👍🏻
Pros:

The general style is nice. A good vibe.

Cons:

The breakfast arrangement is a little strange and because the same cafe area within the facility serves the public too it can get a little chaotic. Good food nonetheless.

Lovely peaceful place to stay in Reepham in the main square with a great bakery for breakfast
Pros:

Lovely stay in Reepham, really comfortable and stylish room with outdoor space, good wifi and smart TV, very quiet and easy access to property and room using key pad. Excellent breakfast in the morning with the bakery downstairs. Lovely friendly pub just across the square. We would stay here again if in the area.

Cons:

Nothing, it was great.

Relaxing get away
Pros:

Lovely location , although no parking on site we used the free carpark which wasn't even a minutes walk away . The room was stunning just as described , the photos don't do it justice . Easy access using a no fuss pin code to both the outer door and to our room . I had messaged before arrival about a breakfast alternative as I am gluten free , the bakery offered a few gluten free items , gluten free granola in our room with extra fruit and yoghurt , perfect!Great communication responding quickly to any queries.

Cons:

All perfect!

Comfy bed, stylish room, very clean. Just wish it had been less noisy outside
Pros:

Attractive property in pretty old square
Bedroom decor delightful
Spacious bathroom
Comfy bed

Cons:

A little noisy outside, especially when it’s hot and you have the windows open
Trouble getting in the main door on second night, had other residents calling out to our room to let them in
Socket for Hair dryer and
available mirror inside wardrobe door a bit tricky for blowdrying your hair

Great place in a great location. Well recommended.
Pros:

Lovely old building and room was comfortable and cosy.

Cons:

Nothing, though missed having a homemade cooked breakfast, as breakfast was a buffet breakfast from the bread shop within the building.

Everything and more that we hoped for, great rooms and a great hotel
Pros:

Breakfast was a continental type and was perfectly adequate. The room was excellent, very spacious and clean with good facilities. The hotel generally was really lovely in a great location. Although there were no reception staff the check in process was perfectly fine and the hotel team made sure via email and Whatsapp that I was completely aware how to check in.

Cons:

The breakfast room was very busy on the second morning as it is open to non residents for drinks and food so we had a bit of difficulty finding a seat but this was a very minor point and did not detract in any way from our stay.
