Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
It's a very expensive room, which was dirty and uncomfortable. Unfortunately there was also music running late into the night. I would only advise staying here if you are part of a wedding/party happening on the premises.
Great second stay at Oaklands. Had a few wifi issues which caused some disruption for me as i was there for business, but apart from that the experience was everything i needed it to be. Looking forward to the third stay next month.
Bit disappointed.
Good location, rooms ok but chose time to stay when they had a wedding party and a football club do. This mean't that I had a very noisy night.
Food basic and lacks finesse.
Guinness at bar was awesome though.
Staff were too busy to care about a single traveller under the circumstances.
Booked a suite for a two night stay to visit family. On arrival we were informed that there were 2 weddings and a football party over the coming weekend.
The patio of the ground floor room was right next to the outdoor wedding marquee. Couldn't sit outside due to noise and people everywhere.
Our room had broken lamp, broken dangerous chair, usb box that doesn't work. And a terribly stained sofa that we didn't want to sit on it
Then at nighttime it was "party central" as all the wedding guests were laughing and shouting, as wedding guests do and in and out of rooms.
This is a charming independent hotel in a convenient location for Norwich centre. As with all hotels of its ilk it does not have the funding provided by the conglomerates but the plus side is its individuality and character. The staff were really good

Tired rooms, and restaurant service very slow
Very clean and reception staff and chambermaids were excellent
A lovely free upgrade. Suites could have done with some new curtains but apart from that was a lovely surprise. Comfortable, roomie. Perfect location, good parking.
Old hotel which needs attention to repairs, modernisation and cleaning. Simple things like wiping skirting boards, cleaning windows & removing cobwebs could be done quickly. Shower dribbled. However food was good.
