Advantages: Close to city centre, re-developed. Disadvantages: Expensive.
I have stayed in this hotel many times from the ages of 7 through to 18 and it has been a firm favourite with my family. The first thing to say is that it isn't cheap with prices of around £70 - £80 a night, always look out for the special offers as they help to bring the price down quite a lot.
Up until last year the hotel, I was feeling, was being let down by their lack of redecorating, but, they have just redeveloped a massive side of the hotel so I imagine they've caught onto this and are slowly changing things! As you can see from the photo though it does have a lovely rustic charm to it.
Location: This hotel is in the best place possible. The Cathedral is literally right across the road from this hotel and some rooms have lovely views of it. The main centre of town is about a 5 minute walk away so not far at all.
The staff are ...
Advantages: Conveniently Positioned Disadvantages: Poor Service
My brother and his family had just moved over to Norfolk and invited us over before they had actually sorted their new house out, so we were left with only one thing to do. We had to book into a hotel for the night (Luckily he paid half as it was his fault for not telling us!). We were not disappointed, though, as Norwich is a very pleasant and boasts to be a perfect place for some historical sight-seeing (From my brothers pocket of course!)
*****Hotel Overview*****
The Maids HeadHotel is a 13th century building in the heart of the city, directly opposite the famous Norman Cathedral.
On first view of the hotel, though, it did not give me much of a historical view and on entry it seemed rather shabby compared to the descriptions we had read online.
As we walked into the reception, we were greeted with a pleasant ...
Advantages: A comfortable hotel and great restaurant Disadvantages: Quite a walk up the hill or steps if escalator is not on
I had a very hectic Christmas last year cooking for the family and generally doing far too much eating and drinking, so when it came to New Years Eve I was worn out, and to be quite honest just could not face another knees up to see the New Year in.
My husband came up with the idea of going for a pint at tea time then back home for a night in front of the television. I agreed with that idea and then he piped up that we would have to go to bed early because we were getting up at six in the morning to drive to Scarborough and staying over night in the grand Hotel.
Scarborough is about three and a half hours drive from where we live so we took a steady pace travelling over the moors keeping away from the motorway. It was great no stress and gorgeous scenery. There was quite a lot of snow on the moors but the roads were clear ...
