My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights while attending a concert at Sandringhan house, property was easy to find and had ample parking. Check-in was very straight forward, and receptionist very friendly and welcoming, room was very clean and cosy, and had all of the amenities required, and expected. Had a meal in the restaurant and food was excellent, as was breakfast in the mornings, and service was excellent, again all staff very friendly and welcoming. All in all, hotel is a great place to stay, some of the previous reviews state that the hotel is a little tired, but then again it is a 13th century property, so what would you expect!!?. My wife also left a personal item in the room when we left, contacted the hotel when we arrived home, and they located it, and posted it back to us. All in all we enjoyed our stay, and wouldn't hesitate in returning, and thank you to all of the staff that looked after us.

Absolutely awful stay, I could hear every word people were saying in the corridor outside my room. The smoking area was outside my window so all I could smell was people’s cigarette smoke all night. There was blood stains on my sheets, broken edges in the bathroom, dirty shower curtain, holes in the bath, toilet roll holder was above the toilet so hard to reach while sitting in the toilet. Trip hazard step into bathroom so stubbed my foot several times. Disabled parking bay was a tiny space next to the smoking are with a wooden post so you couldn’t open the door wide enough. Pillows were flat as paper, kettle full of lime scale and springs in bed popping out. Towels had brown stains on them absolute awful nights sleep due to noise levels of people talking loudly outside window smoking constant slamming of door to reception outside my room. The only good part of the room was Netflix on tv and the blackout blinds everything else was very badly in need of update or good clean. Poorly finished off workmanship from whoever the handyman was with sockets on their sides and bad finishing

Could be better!

We just stayed for one night. Our room was clean but dated. The beds had seen better days. Breakfast was fairly awful. Burnt bacon, poor selection of fruit and pastries and a fruit salad that had seen better days. Solid scrambled egg and muffins that you couldn’t cut into. We had dinner and that was absolutely delicious. In spite of the breakfast and the dated room we enjoyed our stay. It would have been nice to have a ground floor room with a shower rather than a shower over a bath which ( for me) is inaccessible .

Value for money

Hotel nice but dated, clean throughout, floors creak but due to age cannot be helped. Needs a renovation throughout, water leak marks, loose toilet seat, stained carpets etc in our room. In the centre of Swaffham close to kings lynn and surrounding, we were visiting family in RAF Marham about 10/15 minutes drive.

Great staff, not so great property

The staff were excellent. Tried very hard to assist and were very pleasant. However, the building was dated. Room was dirty, no fan in the bathroom, the ambience of the room was unpeasant. the bathroom was ill equipped. The shower didnt work so I had to take a bath, then the water didnt go down the drain, just sat there!

George Hotel was a lovely old hotel and as a lot of old hotels has no air conditioning. Our stay was during a heatwave but they did provide a fan in the room which was much appreciated. The staff were very lovely and very helpful. The food in restaurant was really good.
