The George Hotel, Dereham

Breakfast was excellent staff were very good

The George is the antidote to corporate, cookie cutter accommodation. The experience of dealing with helpful & genuinely friendly staff who go the extra mile, not for a personal review, but because they genuinely care & want to help, was refreshing. The building itself is 100's of years old with all the challenges that brings with upkeep & maintenance. The reality is that everywhere was clean & the furniture was an eclectic mix of styles. This is to me what provides character. There is plenty of on-site parking that is easy to access. The breakfast was excellent & cooked with love of food rather than with haste. Previously stayed at the nearly Wetherspoons, but their dynamic pricing is very cynical, so never again. The George is a gem & the staff amazing!

Very little to not like. You can tell from my Likes above that it was an entirely positive experience.

Excellent

All good

The property is old and the reception, bar area and restaurant are quaint. The staff were friendly and we were personally shown to our room, which was large and on the face of it, fine. Nice large TV, bed comfortable enough.

The property would benefit from extensive updating as the facilities are dated; the water pressure for the shower was very poor. Tea / Coffee making facilities are provided, but not any milk, which we discovered after going to bed after the bar had closed. Even the top up station downstairs did not have any! We did not stop for breakfast so cannot comment on that.
