The Earlham Hotel,

2 - 6 Earlham Road, Norwich NR2 3DB

"A nice comfortable stay, staff welcoming and couldn't do enough for you. Even the two chaps decorating (see pictures) one of which I believe was a manager were friendly and helpful with good banter."

"Proper facilities to be able to prepare quick food in your room. Perfect for people who are working from home. No need to go to expensive restaurants, plates and cutlery provided, convenient for shops. Double glazed windows but suprised at the noise from the main road. Room bins could empty more often."

"My room was like coffin. This was Cathedral Hotel back then. They changed name but I doubt it changed that most of the rooms doesn't have window. Also a lot of junkies live there on permanent basis. One of them overdosed and died in that hotel. Stay away!"

"We recently stayed with the hotel the other week and when we first arrived to pick up the keys, we had someone drop us off and 'stop', not park, for less than 15 minutes. The driver remained in the driving seat the whole time with the engine running. When we asked the front desk do we need to write down the registration plate of the car waiting, we were told that it only charged people who stayed over night so there's no point, even after double checking, the receptionist said there's no point. After trying to contact the hotel to rectify this, the hotel has ignored all messages. So avoid this place if you don't want them to try and win extra money from you for just turning up"

"This was my first visit and it won't be my last. Was made to feel so welcome and was immediately upgraded (without asking) because a bigger room was available. Recently refurbished, the room was sparkling clean and airy. A little bit noisy when others arrived (I was in the front room) so bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper but the location is perfect for Norwich. I was first in to the Plantation Gardens next door which is absolutely beautiful in its tranquility and the Catholic Cathedral is a few doors down. Both well worth a visit."
