The Maids Head Hotel

The Maids Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"A super hotel next to the cathedral with onsite parking. We were uped to to Junior suite with four poster bed, which was enormous. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. Dinner from the Rosette menu was excellent and the breakfast super as well. Staff were first class all round. An ideal location for exploring Norwich city centre, alas we didn't have time to book a ride in the vintage Bentley or borrow one of the bikes, but will return when in Norwich again."
