"Basic hotel for a basic rate"

No plug sockets next to bed. WiFi did not work on laptop and was very slow on mobile phones Air con noisy and did not seem to warm up or cool down the room. There were cobwebs covered in dust on the ceiling and on top of head board. Only get one set of pillows so need to ask reception for another set. Due to covid, coffee and tea etc does not get refilled every day so have to go to reception to get more. Could do with modernising compared to other Premier Inn hotels. Easy to check in and out. We had the top river room. There are two separate windows so didn’t hear the traffic. Only 10-15 minute walk to the town centre and 5 minute walk to the restaurants and bowling. Big tv with very comfy bed. Decent bathroom with powerful shower and big towels. Shower gel available and big mirror in bathroom. Black out curtains were a live saver.

"Premier quality "

After having three holidays cancelled due to Covid decided to head south to avoid Boris bans up north. Chose Norwich after a short visit a while ago. Hotel was superbly situated with ample parking and a friendly welcome on arrival, all COVID restrictions in place but managed very well. We initially had booked two nights but extended to the third. The room was typical premier inn clean, spacious and a decent bathroom, there was no room cleaning available unless specially requested due to the pandemic. Breakfast at the hotel was excellent despite it having to be table service and the choice was all still available, we also ate twice in the restaurant and the food along with the service was excellent and good value. The city centre shopping is a ten minute walk away along with several decent bars, one mention for the pub across the road from the inn ( the complete angler) which was both lovely and friendly

"Comfortable Rooms"

A comfortable no frills hotel close to Norwich Station. An ideal place from which to explore Norwich. Due to the virus there was no room cleaning but as I was only there three nights this was not a problem. The only disappointment was that when I chec ked in I was not informed the bar was closed from 9.00pm rather than 10.00pm so on my first night I went for a nightcap at 9.15pm to be told the bar was closed. However, it is good value for money.

"Worst Premier Inn"

This is the worst premier inn we have stayed in. Our first room smelt of urine and then had an extremely noisy lady in the next room. Arguing and screaming so complained and was moved to another room. This was slightly better but not by much. Bins hadn't been emptied and cobwebs that had been there for a very long time. This hotel is a real let down for Premier Inn.

"Room cold but good breakfast service"

Stayed one night at the nelson. Have stayed a few times before and has always been extremely good. Unfortunately this time the room was cold and however high we put the heating up it was not enough. We requested a portable heater twice, which we were told they would bring to us and never did, which is not really good enough. We would stay again but definitely not in that room. I must say though the waitress (Emma)at breakfast was great, she was really busy but so efficient and friendly, nothing too much trouble.
