The Dukes Head Hotel

The Dukes Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The Duke’s Head Hotel is a wonderful place to stay when you visit King’s Lynn. The building has a lot of character and the hotel is centrally located, right in the heart of the town center. The staff members are also friendly and helpful and not to mention that the place has an excellent in house restaurant. Highly recommended for all your travel needs."

10/10 Excellent
"Work in Cambridge for one night, friend have the Wedding there a couple years back. So we decided to stay at the hotel. Location wise is a 10 out of 10, very close to Kings College, only about five minutes walk. Walking to the shopping centre is also around five minutes where you can find all the shops. Our room was facing the Riverside, which was pretty quiet during the night. Parking was pretty easy only that £26 was a little bit steep. Overall, I think the hotel was up to its reputation and most likely we will be visiting again."

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed for one night, but wished we had stayed longer. All the staff were wonderful and nothing was too much trouble. He dined at the Lamb in the evening and the food and service were excellent. There was plenty of choice for breakfast with a range of additional cooked options. We had great views from our room which was very quiet."
