The hotel looked beautiful online and had a lovely new year’s package. On the homepage they have a whole section about being “family friendly” and boast on how they accommodate children. However when I called to book for my family I was told children aren’t welcome at new year.
If you don’t accept children all year round you cannot claim to be family friendly.
The hotel is serine. The roo.s beautifully furnished. We stayed in room 47, overlooking quey and tributary.
Bed was soft but very comfortable.
The residents lounge on first floor gives a nice view of area.
The restaurant is a must. My partner is vegan so always a challenge but the meal was amazing. Should have a Michelin star!
The Blakeney hotel is just a wonderful place. The rooms are lovely, comfortable beds, very clean. I stayed with my mum who had a lovely accessible room with a wet room. The food is amazing- we had 3 courses each night we were there and I literally could have chosen anything from the menu, and it was difficult making a decision about what to have. The breakfast is also delicious, lots of choice and cooked beautifully. The staff are amazing, always helpful and plenty of them. The area is beautiful, lots of little shops in Blakeney and places to walk from the hotel. Boat trips are also available to see the seals.
There is a small gym and a nice swimming pool. The hotel gardens are lovely - there are loungers in the main garden and lots of seating in the many tiny courtyard gardens around the hotel. Beautifully done, we will return!
Always try to stay in room 43, but this time very disappointed. This room really is need need of refurbishing, the bathroom in particular. The rest of the hotel is looking tied and for the money £1200 for two nights very expensive. The pool area needs some attention. Food was up to their normal good standard. I did fill in the suggestion form and also spoke to reception, but didn't really feel that they were very concerned.
We visited the restaurant for lunch today, there was an excellent choice on the menu, I chose fresh fish it was deliciously cooked without meanless frills. The staff are friendly and efficient. This hotel is outstanding in many ways with a wonderful view across the marshes.
