The area was lovely, we walked around and explored the park and streets alike. We hadn’t realised the dads army connection, which was a lovely discovery. Unfortunately at night we were disturbed by loud noises from people nearby the property and obviously outside of your control.

Convienient town centre location.

In a convenient location in middle of Thetford. The staff were friendly. Reasonably value for money. Bathroom was dissappointing - water flow for shower poor, towel rail on with no control to turn it off in the middle of summer.Temp control for shower hard to control. General decor clean but a little scruffy.

Very disappointing hotel

Everything in this hotel was terrible. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was ok nothing special for £25 for two people. £105 for one night in a very uncomfortable bed is a joke. The toilet in the common area was clogged with poo We do not recommend this hotel

Amazing service.

Just want we needed staff were fantastic and really went the extra mile to accommodate our early arrival and had the room ready for us. Room was nice and big and comfortable. It is a little dated but generally expected. Breakfast was good also. But staff really made the stay were super helpful and friendly.

Did not get room i paid for which was booked through Expedia. The photos of the room booked were not the room which we where allocated. I went to reception to say we had wrong room, only to be told that we had to take that up with Expedia she said we were down as a double room and that the balcony rooms were classed as superior. I showed her my booking and said Expedia class it as a standard feature and showed her the photos that went with the booking, only for her to say that they were not responsible for photos. The room in which we stayed was very dated especially the bathroom. There was no lid on the toilet seat, there was rust on chrome, crack in a couple of tiles and a very overall look of tiredness. The bed however, was compfy and the sheets and towels very clean. I think we had expected one type of room onlt to recieve a not so good one. The receptionist was less than helpful. We were very disappointed. I am still waiting to hear back through Expedia

An elderly hotel, quaint but comfortable. Superb bed, so slept well. Breakfast super. However, I need a ‘walker’ due to a bad back and had no warning that there is NO lift - bedrooms are on upper floors so very difficult. Also there has been confusion with payment. I paid Expedia at time of booking and paid the Bell a different amount when departing. Checked with The Bell upon arrival at home and was told that my ‘payment to the Bell’ was for invoice only???

Could be lovely if refurbished.

Hotel rather tired although it could be made very nice indeed. Room ok although again, in need of refurbishment. Toilet seat broken, no chain on basin plug so difficult to get out with sink full of water. Bath had standing water in, maybe from a leaking tap? We didn’t use it. Tables in bar and restaurant very sticky.
