Request a room away from the road to avoid traffic noise and ensure a restful night's sleep.

I had a wonderful stay with delicious food and attentive service. The portions were generous and satisfying. My room was clean and well-presented. Easy parking made my arrival seamless. It felt welcoming and friendly throughout my visit. 😊

My stay at the Recruiting Sergeant was very enjoyable. The room was well-presented and spotless, with thoughtful finishing touches. The breakfast was a highlight, featuring quality ingredients and a wide selection, ensuring a substantial start to the day. The staff were exceptionally attentive, making me feel welcomed and catered to throughout my visit.

Traffic noise was bothersome in the morning.

Large portion sizes that nearly qualify as a buffet in the Standard Double Room, with hearty meals served hot and fresh. Nicely located for a quick escape from activities, the outdoor garden, even though needing care, offers a decent spot for dining without being indoors.

Traffic noise can be a nuisance, especially if your room's facing the busy main road. expect it to disrupt your sleep during the dawn and dusk hours. Lighting in the corridors feels delayed, which can lead to unexpected stumbles on shallow steps. There’s also a serious lack of parking for overnight guests as staff parking seems prioritized, and fire safety protocols seem mildly ignored with fire doors left wedged open. Security could use improvement too, since the guest door doesn't lock. Fortunately, I only experienced one false alarm. however, it was rather unsettling when no staff were around to assist amid the chaos.

i've stayed in norwich before, but this time was special. the food was not only huge but absolutely delicious, seriously impressed me. staff were super attentive and made my visit feel really welcoming every step of the way.

traffic noise was quite bothersome.

my stay at recruiting sergeant hotel was amazin! the food was delicious with big portions, had a great meal and a few beers. the breakfast was also tasty, i couldn't ask for more!

the only downside was the noise from the road outside, which woke me up a bit in the morning, and parking was kinda tricky.

We had a fabulous time exploring the nearby Broads with our little ones. The room was spacious, perfect for our family, and the staff were super accommodating. Plus, the dinner was a real treat, generous portions that everyone enjoyed!

My kids wished for a designated play area for a bit more fun.

Would recommend for a weekend escape

Spacious room, beautiful food, with exceptional breakfast options that made our stay delightful. the free wi-fi in the room was a pleasant bonus, and the convenient location just 7 km from the nearest airport allowed us easy access to explore the area.

Completely satisfied

Just a smart choice for a brief stop-in in Norwich with good value considering price it charged. I absolutely loved the violet gin they suggested, it was amazing. If you enjoy gin, definitely try the unique options available.

The room was cozy and clean, perfect for a solo traveler. The evening meal I had was fantastic, massive portions and rich flavors. Totally worth it!

had an excellent stay at recruiting sergeant. the standard double room was cozy, clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. the bathroom was lovely too. i found the staff to be superb throughout, from check-in to the bar and restaurant. breakfast was a real highlight with quality ingredients and great coffee.

100% recommend

Dinner was absolutely epic – hand-made pasta that danced on the palate. Breakfast? A solid spread, with quality ingredients like poached haddock and a hearty full English. The service was top-notch the whole time, making us feel right at home.

Oh, but the traffic noise was a bit of a bother, especially with my room facing the road. those corridor lights? They could do with coming on a tad sooner to avoid tripping over in the dark!

The Sunday roast was delightful with well-cooked beef, although the oversized soup plate was a bit off-putting. Service was commendable and the atmosphere was warm. Previous experiences had their ups and downs with service speed and food quality, but overall, a decent meal worth another try.

Amazing food with generous portions. The steak & kidney pie was divine!
