Reviews and Ratings
I was on the third floor and didn't have an en-suite, but at rear ground level with an extremely comfortable king size bed, adding to our lovely cozy room. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, providing excellent service during our stay. The location was lovely, ideal for our requirements, right in the heart of Blakeney, making it a perfect addition to a simply lovely and super relaxing stay. The dining experience offered a lovely choice of foods, including a full English breakfast, but the servers were a bit unkempt and loud. Overall, a great value for money accommodation.
The hotel had spacious and comfortable rooms, and the breakfast was excellent. However, the rooms seemed to get a bit overly hot, affecting sleep comfort, and they needed a bit more care. Having an external bathroom made late-night trips a bit tricky.
The hotel offers beautifully furnished rooms with nice decor and more than adequate space for hanging clothes. While the rooms can get overly hot, affecting sleeping comfort, they are among the most comfortable I have experienced in a hotel.
