Reviews for The Keswick

Review 1:Staff very friendly and food very good. Room was clean and tidy with comfortable bed. Had a restful nights sleep after a long day travelling. Ideal location for where I needed to be. Pub just a short walk next door with a good atmosphere.

Review 2:Couldn't get on the wifi but didn't bother too much as had my own data

Review 3:Good location for visiting our friends, good pubs and fish & chip shop, also little shop that sells everything. Bonus the hotel overlooked the sea step out the back go through the archway and your on the beach.

Review 4:Got a warm friendly welcome by Margaret, a lovely lady. Room was clean and comfy albeit noisy, as it was on the roadside, and hot water seemed to take an age to come through. Breakfast was very good and an excellent choice.

Review 5:Nothing to report.

Review 6:Despite having never been there before & only staying one night, all the staff made you feel very welcome. The rooms were tastefully decorated and the bathroom was unique in it's Norfolk appearance, a really wonderful idea. The breakfasts were excellent & Gina (I think!) was on the ball and gave us a great start to the morning with her banter. We look forward to going back there.

Review 7:The room was very spacious with a lovely four poster bed, comfortable mattress and pillows, clean crisp sheets and luxurious towels. The ensuite bathroom was again spacious and very well appointed. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Fab!

Review 8:didn't like leaving!

Review 9:Fantastic location, backs onto lovely sandy beach, short walk to excellent fish&chip shop, very accommodating staff remember us, so friendly

Review 10:The welcome was a warm one, the staff were very attentive and friendly. The bed was massive and very comfortable. The breakfast (A full Norfolk) was delicious and we struggled to finish it all. The location in Bacton is on the coast road but there is direct access to the beach behind the hotel

Review 11:All staff were extremely helpfull & friendly & would have done anything for us. We stayed one night in the family room as we were attending a wedding and this room had loads of space. Excellent.

Review 12:The only small matter is that there was no shower screen or curtain.

Review 13:Lovely friendly staff. Nicely decorated room with toiletries and tea making facilities. Super breakfast.

Review 14:Nothing bad to say about anything

Review 15:What a lovely welcome, nothing too much trouble from owner and staff. Good hearty breakfast using local produce. Clean and bright everywhere Will definitely be returning.

Review 16:The hotel is very well kept and you are made to feel extremely welcome. The room was immaculate and the bed was very comfy. There are plenty of supplies in the room. Breakfast was amazing with so much to choose from.

Review 17:We were made welcome and at ease. The room was large and comfortable and the breakfast was super. And right on the beach too! A gem of a place to stay!

Review 18:Location was brilliant right on the beach. Good for walks. Good for a base location as there is only a couple of pubs near by. Otherwise a car is needed to get around.

Review 19:Checked out a day early and was charged a "cancellation fee". Never had this before as I normally stay at chain hotels.

Review 20:Pub next door and 50M from the beach

Review 21:What a fabulous place to stay, could not fault anything from the staff who went out of their way to be helpful to the cleanliness and comfort of the room. I would not hesitate in saying here again.

Review 22:Staff were totally lovely, the breakfast was brilliant, two year old daughter welcomed, the beach was on the doorstep and there was a friendly pub with good food next door. Lovely place for a weekend and from which to explore North Norfolk.

Review 23:That I didn't stay longer

Review 24:The owners were amazing, the rooms were brilliant and a lovely sea view, breakfast catered for everything and they are so welcoming, brilliant all round stay

Review 25:The whole experience of staying at the Keswick was most enjoyable. Helped make for a very enjoyable weekend. If your not sure give it a try, you won't be dissapointed.

Review 26:Restaurant and bar wasn't open at weekends which seemed an odd time to close!

Review 27:Access to the seashore was very good. Lovely back bedroom view of the sea.

Review 28:Just the little bits here and there decorationwise to do the odd door etc Our ground floor twinned was a little tired particularly the ensuite. Bear minimal toiletries (although we carry our own so not affected) would have been nice to have a complimentary biscuit or two. Bed sadly very uncomfortable didn't sleep well at all, although it didn't seem to bother my husband. Would like to go back but would ask for a seaview, as road side a tad noisey.

Review 29:Warm friendly welcome the hosts were delightful. Food was excellent. Hotel was clean and mostly modernized

Review 30:Would have liked breakfast to be served until 11am so we could have had a lie in.

Review 31:Received a very warm welcome, very pleasant owners couldn't do enough for us.Friendly staff. Great breakfast, would happily cook something that wasn't on the menu when requested. Amazingly comfortable king sized bed in a spacious clean room.

Review 32:Waitresses could have been more attentive to items running short at breakfast time and need to ask more about individual needs ( i.e. did person want 1 egg or 2 eggs, the same with rashers of bacon - not everyone wants or needs lots of food!) It would also have been good if the tables had been cleared of used plates etc promptly

Review 33:Location and informallity

Review 34:Be nice to have bench/table in garden everything else just fine

Review 35:Clean room lovely breakfast menu nice position near beach lounge nice but shame bar was shut all weekend

Review 36:Comfortable bed and good en suite. The breakfast is great, fresh fruit, yogurts, cereals, that's before the main menu. Plenty of tea and coffee. Loved the view from our window of the fields of potatoes in flower. Back bedrooms had the sea view.

Review 37:Not a thing.
