Fantastic place to stay.

Wonderful welcome from the excellent friendly, efficient, and professional employees who are a massive credit to the business.

The room was compact but perfect for the night's stay, it was spotlessly clean and well-decorated.

The bed was very comfortable and aided a good night's sleep with crisp white linen.

The modern TV was small but more than adequate, however, the Wi-Fi was a little hit-and-miss in terms of connectivity and speed.

The room benefited from an in-room sink yet the bathroom was along the corridor again this was spotlessly clean and if not the offer was there for it to be cleaned at any time, exceptional service.

The Central Hotel is more of a guest house than a hotel mainly because it does not have a bar or restaurant.

Location is great for the city railway station less than a five-minute walk away, the main city centre area is about a twenty-minute walk or a short bus ride costing £1.50.

Wonderful place to stay, highly recommend.

Fantastic....

Very considerate friendly and thoughtful staff, comfy beds, decent shower. Breakfast was delicious and freshly cooked. Close to the night life so didn't need to wait around for taxis. Very happy, thank you

Very pleasant and helpful staff

I've stayed in this hotel many times since early 2015, more recently in July 2022. The location is perfect for anyone arriving by train and the hotel itself has a wonderful Victorian charm with gorgeous views over the River Wensum. Staff couldn't have been more welcoming, supportive and helpful throughout my recent stay. Nothing was too much trouble - all queries were handled efficiently, and attention to detail was meticulous, e.g. fans provided during the mini-heatwave. Bed linen is spotless, cleaning is thorough, and, for a budget hotel, this is a very well managed operation. I'm grateful to Raymond (the manager) and his team for making me feel so welcome and I congratulate them on the work that has been put into upgrading the hotel and making it a safe and pleasant place to stay in Norwich.

Excellent value all round

The Central is very close to Norwich station on the banks of the River Wensum.

There are currently major roadworks in the vicinity so it’s a little more tricky than usual to get there, but still only five minutes away.

I had a single room with en suite facilities. My bed was comfortable, tea and coffee making facilities were supplied and there was sufficient wardrobe space.

The shower was decent with a plentiful supply of hot water.

I did not have breakfast, and one night cost a bargain £45.

Excellent Value and Location

I booked this because I couldn't get a reasonable price booking in a big chain hotel.  I usually prefer chains, because you're guaranteed good quality. 

Central by far outdid my favourite chain hotel.  

I was upgraded, was provided with a parking permit and was given a beautifully quiet room.  The bed was fantasic, with an incredibly comfortable mattress.  I had the best nights sleep I've ever had in a hotel. 

I won't bother with the big hotels in future.  I'll definitely be booking with Central again 

Fantastic

Great little hotel in an exceptional location and fantastic value for money. Was given a very friendly welcome and keys to an economy room in the annexe, another building a couple of hundred yards away. Room was small but functional,with basic facilities. Would definitely stay again if in central Norwich for the night. Perfect if visiting by train too, as extremely close to the station. 

Couldn't fault it

This is a great little B and B style hotel and as it's name suggests it's central to Norwich City centre with a short 10min walk to the heart of it all. It is also perfectly situated near the train station which is about 5 mins away. This hotel is nice and basic with a main building and an annexe just across the road. We stayed in the annexe on our visit and it was clean warm and comfy for our needs as a base to get out and about in Norwich. It really is good value for money too given it's central location. If you like no thrills give this place a go.

Clue Is In The Name

Beautiful location, really welcoming host, couldn’t have been any more helpful, even helped me park 😂 breakfast was really nice from a local farm. Cosy room really comfortable nice and warm, would definitely stay again, thank you 😊  hotel is lovely.

Lovely hotel

A quick one night stay while visiting the city and university. Lovely rooms and the wonderful staff very kindly upgraded my single room to a double en suite which was wonderful! Excellent service. Beds were slightly too hard and walls a bit thin but overall great deal and great accommodation only a minutes walk to the station.

Fab, clean and kind

I stayed here on New Years Day for the football game at Carrow Road. The B&B is a great choice if you’re looking for a no-frills, centrally located room for the night!

The staff were extremely friendly and serve a great cooked breakfast in the morning. 

Would certainly stay here again next time I am in Norfolk.
