Check in was very efficient. Room spacious and clean. En suite shower / toilet clean too. Bed was very comfortable. Wifi worked well, without any problems. Although the car park was busy, there were plenty of parking spaces. Hotel was conveniently close to a regular bus route to Norwich city centre. All staff at reception were helpful and professional, especially one clean shaven man, who printed a document for me. Unfortunately, I didn't get his name. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay and a positive impression of Norwich.

The staff were unfailingly friendly and welcoming, going the extra mile to serve our needs. Breakfast was fine too. The room was very clean, no complaints, and very quiet at night. Our only disappointment was in the evening meal, but given the limited facilities at the hotel, it was understandable. That was the only downside of our very peasant stay. Much recommended.

When we arrived our rooms werent ready even though we were given the keys to our rooms. On a personal note I was celebrating my birthday and came back from a gathering of my ex RAF friends to find there was no Scottish whisky available. As I had travelled down from Scotland for this event it did dampen the celebrations somewhat.

This was our third visit to Norwich and we stayed in Holiday Inn Express again. Great location for us. Service is good as usual. Breakfast had limited choice compared to other Holiday Inns (veggie sausages not great!) Our room was on the side near to David Lloyd’s which didn’t bother us until they played very loud music at 9am disturbing our sleep! If staying again I will request a room on the other side.

Very clean, all the basics covered. Breakfast was ok but the area where is ess presented was very small and just not enough for the guests; we were all kind of falling over one another. The staff were friendly. The main issue was there bed. I am a side sleeper but don't like a soft mattress but this one was little more than a board with a sheet over it, making it really hard to sleep and leaving me feeling bruised in the morning. No idea how procurement department could arrive at purchasing this.

Hotel standard in UK varies - this hotel is absolutely at a higher standard than most UK hotels. Spacious room, nice and comfotable beds, easy to acces by bus or taxi from airport or citycenter, quiet surroundings, a supermarket next to, kind and helpful staff. Breakfast OK - could have been improved by at slice og cheese (but we got it from the supermarket). Prices are OK. Nice hotel - we will come back!

Internet slow and unreliable, especially the 'house' network. Not enough shelving in bathroom, no hooks in bathroom, no drawers in bedroom, bedside tables too small, toilet blocked on last day. Heating unresponsive to changes made on the controls. Single quilts very narrow for the beds, no overhang. No prepared fresh fruit, no fruit knives for unprepared fruit. Buffet area badly designed, too small, congested. Many tables seated 4, but often with only 1 or 2 people seated at each, leading to a shortage of tables when busy. Absence of written information in the room, eg, the option for 'no room service', food menu for evening meals. Room was clean. Saw very few staff, but all were polite. Workmen on the roof directly outside the room window before our check out time. Am concerned that no one will respond or deal with these comments.
