Kings Hotel Holt Road Dereham just beautiful
From the moment we arrived we were made very welcome by all the staff The Hotel is beautiful with original features etc It has a bowling green at the rear & ample parking We had rooms that were across from the main hotel which suited us 4 ladies as none of us are under 60 yrs ,( oldest being 82 yrs ) so not having a flight of stairs to climb was fantastic We had our own entrance to our rooms so having another door you could lock was very reassuring ( room no.11&12 ) The beds were very comfy & the rooms were well heated & roomy The showers were extra large with lovely soft towels The welcome tea tray was well stocked & they also left biscuits which was an extra little touch They had thought of everything you could possibly need We had continental breakfast the next morning with ham, cheese’s , boiled eggs, toast, cereals, muffins, fresh fruit & yoghurt (weekday is continental £7.50 weekends all the above plus a cooked breakfast choice £10.50 ) We did not have an evening meal or use the bar as we were on the Polar express experience at 6pm Lovely Hotel we shall be returning in the future as we go to North Norfolk frequently We spent the next morning shopping in Dereham town centre which we had never visited before very charming & some lovely individual shops 10/10 from all of us

Wow, what a gem of a find.
We stayed on 9th Sept 2024. The room was as advertised with a spacious king size bed, everything was clean and neat. The late afternoon started with a few cask ales, all in good condition. My wife enjoyed her G&Ts. What made it special was a combination of the interactions from the staff; engaging, helpful, courteous and at times a respectful witty banter. The 'cherry on the cake' was the food, absolutely marvellous. The homemade pate was spot on it had a smooth and creamy texture with a wonderful flavour and the steaks were cooked to perfection (rare). Of course we had to have dessert to help soak up the wine, a nice reserva Rioja, it all rounded off a very pleasant evening before we succumbed to the comfort of a lovely king size bed with cosy bed linen. We opted for a continental breakfast, which offered plenty of choice to set us up for the day ahead.

Fantastic stay
We had a fantastic stay. Big comfortable bed. Outstanding breakfast with really helpful staff. Only downside was a very used ashtray on the ground in the communal entryway we shared with our neighbours. Clearly hadn’t been emptied in a while. Although this is better than cigarette butts on the floor. Just not pleasant to see.

Friendly staff.The room was large and well furnished with a very large comfortable bed. The bathroom was clean. Being an old property, there were some cobwebs. Teh wifi was not good for us. The hotel is at a road junction with some traffic noise. Friday night was live music downstairs until 11.45 and then activity until 2.00am - ask about it in advance if you are a light sleeper.

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely beautiful property that resides in the quiet and tranquil area of North Elmham. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the front of house staff member who was very pleasant, polite and helpful. We went up to our room, which upon opening the door, we were amazed at just how big the room was. Super king-sized bed and all the furniture made from solid wood. The bathroom was exceptionally spacious also. The bed was comfy, there were plenty of facilities (ironing board, iron, soap, body wash, tea & coffee, kettle, mirrors, hair dryer, fan etc), really quiet location, pleasant staff, clean, great food, all at a fantastic price. A well deserved 5 stars all round from me.

We were a group of 4 cyclists touring Norfolk and this is a truly excellent place to stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was very good - not pub food by any standards! - and the beer was also top notch. Highly recommended.
