Reviews

Summary: This hotel was an excellent choice due to its prime location next to the Anglican Cathedral, with a Wetherspoons 110yds down the road, shops 10 mins walk and station 15. The rooms were of a very high standard and house-keeping take a pride in ensuring customer excellence in the way it responds to needs.
Michael Aug 22, 2025 11:20:00 PM
Summary: Such a well maintained, old hotel in the middle of the most historic part of Norwich. We really appreciated them allowing and being especially kind to our small dogs.
Debbie Aug 20, 2025 08:29:24 PM
Summary: The bedroom & bathroom were clean & spacious. The hotel is in a perfect spot - nice & quiet with bars & restaurants nearby, and only 10 minutes walk to the heart of the city.
Hannah Aug 19, 2025 06:23:59 PM
Summary: Room 218 is much too hot to stay in. The outside temperature was 21 degrees during our stay so not hot but the room was like a sauna. The portable air-con unit (even when filled with ice) blew out hot air and windows didn't open for any air. When we complained the hotel was full so we couldn't be moved but the man who spoke to us from reception put the phone down on us (yes, we were annoyed when speaking to him but not rude or disrespectful in anyway). We have seen various reviews online that say the same as us so this room should not be sold if it is this hot. (I dread to think what it's like when its 30degrees outside!!!) We were unable to relax in the room at all and got no sleep. The noise from the pub across the road was ridiculous too. People staying in this room should be informed that the noise is that bad, I know it's a city centre but never before have we stayed in a city centre hotel with such bad noise. The heat and noise combination meant we got about 1 hours sleep. We were given a 50% refund on check out but still resentful as it completely ruined our weekend (my husband had a big cycling event the next day which he needed to be well rested for but obviously wasn't).
KEITH Aug 12, 2025 07:15:00 PM
Summary: bed good, food good. service poor, very noisy around hotel till 12 midnight or later.
KEITH Aug 11, 2025 07:09:04 PM
Summary: un-expected disappointment, Servicing of rooms not complete(coffee sugar, milk not replaced),towels left on floor, reception did not relay messages. However the food was good. Location good. BUT-being in the city centre lots of noise from clubs bars loud music and voices uptil after 12 midnight.

Summary: Fantastic experience at the Maid's Head Hotel. We arrived at 1pm to drop off a bag and the receptionist allowed us to check in early and showed us to the room. The room was beautiful, filled with beams and a view of the cathedral. Drink at the bar was very nice. Buffet breakfast was the best we have had, local produce and cooked very well. Service throughout our stay was superb
Kirsty Jun 30, 2025 01:47:38 AM
Summary: We’ve stayed at the Maids Head several times. It’s a great hotel, clean and comfortable. Breakfast is always great - lots of gluten free options. Gluten free toast is always provided. Choice of GF cereals, cooked breakfast was all clearly marked and our server was aware of which items were gf. Room was lovely and clean. There was a wedding there on our last stay, and the bar ran out of wine and the barman was not having a great time - he was clearly under pressure and not in the best mood. It didn’t spoil our stay.
Alan Jun 29, 2025 11:34:06 PM
Summary: Great from beginning to end.
TD Jun 25, 2025 09:38:28 PM
Summary: I booked this because I thought it was the best hotel in Norwich - I wasn't disappointed. Old world charm, plus a free tour in a Rolls-Royce.
