Superb location near Norwich Cathedral. Lovely characterful old building complex which was spotless. Friendly staff and a decent breakfast buffet (just steer clear of the awful ketchup and brown sauce). However , if you are going to put an iPad in each room which supposedly has guest information, then make sure it's charged for use. I reported this on the day of arrival, and it was not rectified over the next three days. Whichever stylist or designer thought it was a good idea to have the whole surface of the bathroom mirror dotted with simulated tarnish should be sacked immediately and banned from making any other stupid style over function choices.

We loved the fact it is the oldest hotel in the UK! A beautiful well cared for property in the heart of Norwich. The cathedral visible from our window as well as easy access to the city centre, all within a short walking distance.

Very comfortable hotel, with helpful and plentiful staff, in a good location. Claims to be the oldest hotel in Britain, which might explain why no lifts and thus, several small or modest staircases - both up and down - to get to/from our large and well equipped room. No obvious offer of help with our bags to the room (which might be helpful for some). Never saw a chambermaid but they did a first rate job. There was a function going on one evening which was a bit noisey until late, and then a few doors slamming. The room heating is unusual. Although there is a thermostat in the room, which we tried, in fact you have to telephone reception to change the temperature in the room ! Weird. But overall highly recommended.

We found the maids head hotel to be an excellent property. All of the staff were very helpful and courteous. The full English breakfast buffet was also excellent with an assortment of traditional British fair and lots of fruit and other options. It is conveniently located next to the Norwich Cathedral For those who want to pop in for EvenSong.

The Maids Head is perfectly located right by the cathedral, restaurants and pretty shopping streets of Norwich. Rooms were attractive, comfortable and clean. The lobby and ground floor sofa seating area is beautifully appointed. The bar, when we found it, was a bit unexpected - old fashioned pub style.

Superb central location, very close to the cathedral and also an easy walk to the centre of the city. Reception and housekeeping staff were helpful. Parts of the hotel are admittedly a little tired, and need upgrading. Also, some better signage around the hotel would be helpful (it's quite a maze). But a pleasant stay, and we would return on our next stay in Norwich.
