Hotel berhampiran Wymondham Abbey, Wymondham

Position opposite the Abbey in the middle of town was great, access to the accommodation by code outside and in given to you on the day. We had to have a change of room because of a drainage problem and because they had no other twin bedded rooms we were given 2 king size rooms -1 complimentary. The decor of the rooms is plush with comfortable beds and pillows, if you want to self cater you have everything you need- the bath room was decorated in a modern style - everything was clean and tidy. Overall ornate and impressive. Would definitely stay there again if in the area. We were on a track day at Snetterton which is 15 minutes drive down easy roads to the circuit. The town has several eating places and a few good pubs in a small area all close by to the accommodation.

Great location. helpful staff. Rosemary was brilliant to help us with a last minute booking when we found our original had closed down without notifying us. I think we must have got the last two rooms in Norfolk after 2 hours ringing round and trying

A good pool and gym. Restuarant closed on Monday and Tuesday, there are street food Van's outside which were nice. Room was adequate size. Little balcony. No lift for first floor. Location is a bit remote so no much to do on foot outside the hotel.

Evening food was lovely in the brasserie. The golf course was lovely. We played the hill course. The spa was great. Great range of treatments and people were nice. Location and general feel about Barnham broom is amazing. The smaller sized resort is much better aswell. The 2 downsides: The breakfast was horrendous. The quality of the food and the state it was cooked in was diabolical. (Full english) the hot drinks were also done with little to no care and was not good at all. The bar in the middle of the hotel between the brasserie and the sports bar would be an amazing place to have proper drinks, lovely setting and great for people to have a nice evening drink. This wasn't manned and we were just directed to the sports bar as a couple to get drinks instead...which is more 'laddy' than we wanted for our after evening drinks. Which was a shame.

The host & staff were very polite and engaging. Parking was restricted to small cars, but on street parking was freely available in front of the hotel. I had visited the bar on previous visits to Snetterton Circuit, which was a traditional style of 1970's decor, which I liked. The breakfast was excellent value, with quality items one step up from the high streel economy hotel brands. Plenty of it, with a decent selection of options.The cost of £80 per night for my wife & I was reasonable for a one off stay, but the room was only just wide enough to house the double bed, but had a desk with draws for a few clothes. The bed was comfortable and the pillows sumptuous and clean, but there were a few negatives my wife said I should mention. Now I dont want to sound like a hotel inspector, but the following were obvious oversights.T he first was that the heating was on 24/7 an unable to be controlled in the room, so we had the windows open all the time we were in the room. The outside temperature was about 15 degrees, but using my phone app, the inside more like 25 degrees with the windows shut.The walls were originally decorated with white art ex plaster, which had become stained over its life and the groove in the plaster were dust traps meaning that the cornice areas were full of cobwebs. The paint scheme was in ned of a good clean and make over and the carpet started going threadbare on the stairs from the bar. The toilet needed cleaning round the hinge are of the seat as it was brown and stained. The shower needed a service, as the water control valve was very stiff to operate and the heat control was locked into the 35+ range and could not be switched off. We have a similar shower at home so it was not operator error, probably just scaled up. For me it was acceptable, as I have stayed in much worse, but with a little more due diligence, it should have been a 4* review, never going to get 5* due to the type and age of the property, location and cost. I would not deter anyone staying for a short break, as the host is a nice chap, but any longer than a night or two and the negatives i mentioned above, would annoy me. I hope this gives you an honest overview of our experience. I would probably stay again, as it is convenient for my wife & i to support our son at a Snetterton race weekend.

Great place to stay. Staff very friendly and professional. Rooms very clean. Service excellent and food very good. Would certainly stay again when in the area. Breakfast fantastic, cooked fresh from our order taken. Stayed in The Langtry room with a nice view across to the stream. They do Walk In Breakfast 8 to 10. Worth every penny.

Clean, comfortable and compact accommodation with all the basics. Very convenient if you want to visit the university, a little less so if you want to visit the city centre, although there are regular bus services. Supermarket and coffee shop close by, pleasant surroundings. Have stayed a few times and would do so again.
