Lovely Hotel

We very much enjoyed our stay at Sutton Staithe Hotel. It looks over the Broads and you can see the changing of the boats from day to day which is really nice. The breakfasts were great and the staff were all friendly. They have a lovely bar and outside area. The only small thing I can say is that not all the rooms have been redecorated and ours looked a little tired, but the amenities for the room were good and did not affect our happiness with the room. Would definitely come here again.

A work in progress.

Stayed four nights in room 14, steep stairs to reach it with luggage but nice views of the waterfront. King size bed was very comfortable and the shower very efficient. The huge smart TV was a little large for the room! Could have done with a wardrobe or portable clothes rail, perhaps using some of the floorspace in the vast en suite bathroom. Breakfast service was friendly and efficient. We had dinner on one evening, nice menu, friendly service but stretched on a busy evening. Good selection of beers in the busy bar with plenty of outdoor seating. Overall a very enjoyable stay and we wish the owners continued success as they strive to develop the business.

Alarming visit

Would have loved to have given a 5 star but it has to be 4 because the fire alarm went off at 5am and there was no one on site. It took half an hour for the manager to turn up and turn it off. And that was only because a neighbour knew who to call. They gave us a couple of free drinks the next evening but we had to ask. No apologies. The day staff didn't even know what had happened.

The room rate was very cheap and there’s a reason for this. The building is very shabby and although the welcome pack explains that it’s an old building and they are doing their best to renovate it, it’s obvious that they are completely out of their depth. This was a feeling echoed by other guests I spoke to. Having said that the bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve slept in for sometime. Food was good, drinks offer extensive and staff friendly and I’m sure doing their best. Would I book again, sadly not.
