St Giles House Hotel

8/10 Good

"bit of tlc, for example the skirting boards were all knocked and the shower was leaking quite badly. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good."

Norwich Central Hotel - Near Norwich Train Station & Carrow Road Stadium

10/10 Excellent

"I had a great stay here cheap and on a budget but clean and beds comfortable"

Hotel Belmonte

8/10 Good

"Slightly outdated decor but very clean and tidy. Generous amount of tea & coffee provisions provided. Bathroom in room 3 was a bit cramped and it wasn't possibly to stand up in the shower owing to the low ceiling/staircase. Good value for money, especially considering the relatively last minute timing of my booking. Well located for the city centre and the railway station."
