The view ! Omg it was incredible, we were in a sea view room which was beautiful. The location of the hotel is perfect. The bar was very welcoming and drinks reasonably priced for a hotel. Really enjoyed 2 nights in there watching the sunset from the outdoor terrace was the highlight. The bed was very comfy and had a great nights sleep. Staff were always pleasant and couldn't do enough for you. Looking forward to another visit soon.

Few issues with the room which were resolved and we appreciated the steps taken to make us comfortable. The stairs to the second floor is a struggle with luggage but we managed.

A Wonderful stay at the Golden Lion Hotel. All staff were attentive , polite and welcoming. When we opened the door to our room it took our breath away it was spacious and spotless with a large window with sea views and a large bathroom. On sleeping there for a week we found the beds very comfortable and lovely bedding. The meals were excellent of what we had.The town is very clean with plenty to do, On the day of departure we were sorry to leave. On our way home i received a phone call from the receptionist saying staff had handed in Two rings from our room and would kindly post them to us we received them 2 days later. A big THANKYOU to the staff that did this for us. Thankyou for a wonderful stay. Sisters Sue and Sheila. Room number7

Nothing all good

We stay regularly at The Golden Lion as it has everything we need for a romantic break. It's in an ideal location close to everything. We tried the new spring menu for lunch and dinner and all of the dishes were exceptional. The staff are all fantastic and make every guest feel welcome.

We really appreciate the private parking but some guests can be very selfish with how they use it. It's quite a tight blind corner to get out to the gate but people do park on the bend. We think one of those curved mirrors mounted on the wall would help drivers see around the corner.

Good location, very handy for visiting Sandringham estate and other parts of Norfolk. A reasonable menu in the hotel, and 3 real ale pumps at the bar. The hotel is in the centre of the town with plenty of shops,cafe's and restaurant's just a short walk away. The hotel has been refurbished to a very high standard and it shows. The staff are superb and very helpfull. A good choice of items on the breakfast menu if you like cooked food. I looked at 2 other hotels in the town and I think that I made the right decision to stay at the Golden Lion.

If you require a continental breakfast the choice is a bit limited. A very small car park that has to be booked in advance for a small fee, I would have willingle paid the fee to have got a space ( the staff will direct you to a nearby car park or there is on street parking a short walk away ) .

Very clean, perfect location, room was perfect and the view from the room was stunning. Food was very good.

Hospitality staff let the stay down. We dined with them for dinner and breakfast and also for drinks and had bad experiences all 3 times. The young girls seemed inexperienced and just not bothered about providing good customer service. We even got blamed at one point for not having menus on our table when we asked for them the waitress said “well I definitely put them there before you sat down!”. My mum doesn’t have the best of health and really struggled going up the two flights stairs - I assumed most places had lifts these days.

As booked, had a great seaview room (27), lovely pillows, nice decor and colour scheme. Lovely welcome at reception, very helpful in having a safe place for bikes overnight . 2 fans in rooms for warm weather .Sure it would be very cosy in colder weather ! Excellent location

Mattresses had a dip so presumably were not the newest. Room 27 has 2 external lamps right in front of the window . The lovely shutters blocked much of their light but it was a hot night so closed shutters meant no cooler air could get through. There were 2 fans in the room though.

The room was well appointed and in lovely location.

Coffee very weak and nit hot.

Location was superb, staff were super helpful & friendly, food was decent & arrived swiftly. Lot of history at this site & about as close as you can get to the sea front.

The extractor fan in the bathroom was blowing inwards as opposed to outwards but I only noticed something like this because I’m a building surveyor & a little bit obsessed with work to the untrained individual this would make no difference during their stay :)

We always enjoy staying here and every visit is perfect. The location is perfect with wonderful views and walking distance to everything. Private parking is an added bonus and is secure with a code. The bedrooms have a quality luxury feel and are spotlessly clean with great attention to detail. The food is very high quality and there is plenty of choice. The bar is well stocked and has a great selection. The staff are all fantastic and make every guest feel welcome. Nothing is too much trouble and the warm friendly atmosphere is felt throughout each visit. There is ample space to sit and relax both inside and out with stunning views.

Absolutely nothing needs improving as it's simply wonderful.

Recent extension and renovation has transformed the ground floor of this hotel. The bar and conservatory are a big improvement and the ground floor bedroom seemed also recently refreshed. The restaurant is serving a more sophisticated menu

Some young staff seemed not sufficiently trained.. service was sometimes slow and erratic. Dogs should not be allowed to sit on the settees in the new bar area. The hotel needs to rethink its clientele and identity now it has been "upgraded" if it is to represent value for money/, Some very noisy people in the bar/dining areas.
