Furzedown Hotel

The staff were lovely and accommodating however the hotel itself was very dated and is in desperate need of a makeover, the room was clean although the bathroom had a very funky smell. Also my elderly parents had no way of showering as the sides of the bath were so high to step over from the floor.

Went to Great Yarmouth for the parkrun on Saturday morning and decided to try here for breakfast after our run. The hotel was directly opposite the start and finish which was ideal. The service and good.were both exceptional and couldn't recommend enough.

We didn’t stay in the hotel, as we were camping nearby. But we came in for a couple of drinks on aFriday night and we really enjoyed our time there. The manager was incredibly friendly and welcoming and his attention to detail was very noticeable! We then decided to visit their restaurant for breakfast the next morning… and again we were greeted with a smile, all staff members were friendly. The young lady who served out breakfast was super lovely also! The food and the view were very good too! What’s not to like! We look forward to coming back soon x

Stayed for a night ? Warm welcome on arrival got given my room but I couldn’t hear what the lady said so went to my room which ended up to be the wrong room with my key being able to open both rooms . My fault completely it was a strange situation but when I woke up in morning I saw the room number on the key fob which I never saw on arrival . Lovely breakfast greeting by Nadia and Julie and the breakfast experience was exceptional. Thanks for your hospitality

Stayed a couple of times this month with my wife and very pleased with how the staff made us feel welcome. The atmosphere is very friendly, the rooms are comfortable with beautiful views but the food is just excellent. Great choice of food for breakfast with too many options to try them all.

Food was superb. We chose 6 starters instead of mains as we like tapas style food. The portions were generous and we had more than we expected. Absolutely delicious and would definitely recommend. Great atmosphere and very comfortable. Staff are a credit to this hotel.

Arrived greeted by friendly front desk gave key and mentioned breakfast timings.Lots of stairs room clean bed small double so struggled with space bath also smaller than average. Decoration shabby needs some work along with bathroom tiles and taps. Tea,coffee and milk sparse in room. Breakfast menu was ok disappointed with having to wait for fruit then wait again for cereal then ask for milk all a bit to and fro. Self serve buffet would have improved this part. The main breakfast scrambled eggs with mushrooms was presented well and cooked to a high standard sadly let down by waiting staff who failed to clear used plates or disappeared so having to wait for them to return. The toast was presented at beginning of breakfast so was cold and hard by the end when ready to eat. The breakfast area was functional but lacked ambience Car park available but tiny fortunately not blocked in but again it would help if the hotel took car reg so you could contact if a problem. Overall pleasant enough stay but would not return

This is our 5th year visiting this wonderful family run hotel. We honestly can’t say enough good things about the Furzedown. We have visited at the same time for the last few years to celebrate our young daughter’s birthday as she loves Great Yarmouth. Paul, Lisa, Will, Katie and ALL their staff could not be more welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. They really do offer a personable experience, despite only seeing us once a year for a few days they have remembered us and always make our daughter’s birthday visit special. The food has always been good, but this year was next level! We ate in the hotel restaurant on two of our three days such was our experience on the first night. Can’t wait to return soon.

What a gem this hotel is a real find from check in to leaving…location on the seafront..walking distance to every thing… right opposite the Venetian gardens… we stayed just one night as we went to see queen supreme at the pavilion theatre who were also excellent…breakfast was excellent along with the service.. wished we had stayed another day or two.. will definitely return.. thanks to everyone on the team who made our stay..
