"Nice beds but no air conditioning"

Good location near to the ring road. It seems to be used mainly by business travellers but for us it was handy for getting out and about as we had not been to Norfolk before. There is a park and ride close by so easy to get into Norwich. There are two pubs that do food one attached to the hotel and one accross the road both offer standard pub grub and get busy. There is also a cafe near by. Rooms were comfortable but very hot - we had a fan in ours but the lack of air conditioning was noticable in this recent hot weather. Staff are really helpful

"A family visit, to visit other family members living in this area."

Allocated room 90, top floor of this 2 story building, on the north or "cool side" of the building. Arrived from the north east of England on the 27th of July, a very hot day by UK standards, at around 30*C, or slightly higher. We asked at reception about air conditioning, their is none, we were told, but there is a fan in the room! Our room was VERY hot. The window in the room would only open as far as the restrictor would allow, about 2 inches! The fan was switched on, but this only stirred the hot air around a little, and the ratchet system on the head of the fan was so worn, it was VERY difficult to keep the head in a vertical position. Impossible if you chose to oscillate the fan. We went out for the evening to visit our family who lived locally. They too complained about the heat. Back at the hotel at around 22.00, our room was very uncomfortable with regard to the heat. No complaint was made, what can the staff do about high temperatures? My wife and l slept on top of the bed, in a near unclothed state, with the fan blowing towards us in an attempt to cool us, but only succeeded in making draft. Breakfast was satisfactory. We both dined "continental. The room was clean, and the towels changed each day, although we did not request that, by folding the towels and putting them back on the rack. The TV was good, with a volume restrictor on the volume button. There was no telephone in the room. While the outside ambient temperature dropped over the 5 nights we were there, the building had stored the heat, and didn't cool. So we had to sleep as already stated, each night. We cannot say that the dinner menu or service was good. We did not expect cordon bleu, but it it was slow at the order point, and took FAR to long to arrive. The problem being the lack of staff. The place is run on a minimum staff level, and they cannot keep up. A management decision. There was an alternative establishment across the road, bearing the Hungry Horse brand. The menu on offer is similar to the Brewers Fare at the hotel, but the service far superior, and the food preparation better. Should we choose to stay at this Premier Inn again, we will choose the Hungry Horse for our evening dining. For my last day, l had a full English breakfast. It was alright, except for the eggs, both fried and scrambled, also the black pudding. The eggs were hard and unpleasant, also the black pudding was overcooked. Were we happy? Not very! There was a good soft play area, which our grandchildren, who were accompanying us, with their parents, did enjoy. This is attached to the hotel, indoors, which is good for any poor weather days

"No air con!"

The location of this hotel was perfect for the places we wanted to visit. Unfortunately we were there on the two hottest days of the year and they have no air con...we were grateful the fan in the room, however we were unable to sleep because it was too hot. Breakfast was good...staff mostly polite and helpful....although no ice for drinks on hottest day...I believe it was called furnace friday!!

"Typical Premier Inn"

Nothing flash here, if you've stayed in a Premier Inn, you've stayed in them all! This one is very quiet, despite it's size and location (on a business park). I've no doubt I'll be stopping here again in the future.
