We stayed one night in this hotel as we were in the area for an event. The outside of the hotel is lovely and the design of the public areas very modern and airy.
The bedroom was fairly large, well decorated and had lots of nice touches. The room was overall very quiet and clean and comfortable.
Unfortunately we found the service both at reception and in the restaurant poor and almost surly and the food was average at best. We wanted to ask where the nearest shop was and had to wait at least 2 minutes whilst the the reception/restaurant staff were discussing their table plan for the evening. When we finally asked we were abruptly told the name of the town where the shop was before they returned to the plan.
At dinner we were given the table nearest the kitchen door and by the gangway the staff moved along. When we asked the waitress if another table was available she asked the restaurant manager who spoke to the waitress as if we weren't there pointing to another table and stating that was the only one we could have if we weren't happy. Although this table was fine at least two other tables remained empty all evening and it was clear it was most inconvenient that we didn't want to sit in a gangway by the litchen.
The food was well presented but the roasted seabass was very greasy and had obviously been overfried prior to going in the oven and the linguine that came with the brill was stodgy and overcooked. We did have a very good bottle of wine at a reasonable price for a reataurant. At breakfast the next morning we weren't expecting much and we were not disappointed. Every table which didn't have a guest at it remained uncleared for the duration of breakfast so by the time we left were were surrounded by the remains of other peoples breakfast - not really what you expect for £150 per night.
Overall I would say this is a beauifull hotel let down by poor service and average food. I hope that we came on a bad day as the hotel looks as if it could be wonderfull with a little effort.

Yes it's a great place to stay relaive to the other outdated local B&B's. But seriously it's more 4* than 5.

The room (deluxe) was spacious - but needed a little updating. The bathroom scored more highly - a lot more modern and slick.

Breakfast is held in what used to be a conference room and not in the rather nice dining area. This was let down as it seemed odd and too crampd and busy. Dinners were delicious, but very expensive for Norfolk, but the most disappointing thing was that it was the same menu 2 nights on the trot!

Relative to a recent spa break at Ragdale Hall, which was only marginally more expensive - I'd go Raggers all day!

Service was very good - very strange manor of manageress who was school maam. Nice touches - homemade biscuits and port each night.

Probably won't stay there again. Would go for Vicoria next time which is in Holkham Bay - magnificent!

We have just stayed at this wonderful hotel, which is within easy reach of the North Norfolk coast.
We stayed on their Diner bed & breakfast deal – what a bargain, the rooms, both public and private are modern and of the very highest quality our room, No 2, was spacious well appointed with a even a play station to go with the flat screen TV, and as for the little touches such as the home made biscuits, decanter of port and a jug of REAL milk in the mini bar for those of use who don’t like UHT it shows that someone cares, and that attention to detail has been passed on to all the staff who are very helpful and attentive.
The bar is comfortable wit a wide range of beers and glasses of wine from £3.75.
What can I say of the food only brilliant!
One tip if you do stay here the only thing to be aware of is that the rooms at the front do suffer from a little traffic noise.

We booked 2 nights at the Kings Head, bed and breakfast and all I can say is WOW! The room was huge, with a superking bed to match, lovely thick cotton sheets, duvets and pillows, and a fabulous luxury bathroom, with fluffy towels, bathrobes and locally produced 'smellies'. The food was wonderful, freshly cooked from locally supplied goods, excellent selection of real ales and wine in the bar, or freshly made coffee in the lounge, and the local area is just lovely (I highly recommend the scrambled eggs with cream and smoked salmon on griddled home made bread for breakfast by the way!). Staff really were totally accommodating, and all in all it couldn't be faulted. The deal was excellent value for money - make sure you shop around on a few booking websites for the best offers! Highly recommended.
