Great location, near to the train station, river Wensum and a host of really good real ale pubs. The William IV not only has a convenient location, but also includes parking and a great breakfast, which for the price is nothing short of brilliant!

Given the number of brilliant, atmospheric pubs in the vicinity, the William IV really ought to do more to offer a couple of real ales, which would have meant we certainly, would have spent longer actually frequenting the pub for a few pints and a game of pool before moving on or arriving back later.

The whole stay was very good. The room was clean and comfortable, there was lots of hot water , we had a tv, coffee /tea making facilities , bottles of water and a fridge. There was a good selection of food for breakfast. We could not have asked for more for a weekend stay whilst visiting friends. Situated in a very pleasant residential neighbourhood.

Visitors need to be aware that there may be an event on in the pub with music. We were not bothered by the evening's entertainment and all was quiet by 11.00pm.

Excellent value for money. This is a B&B part of a pub. The location is fairly good for the city centre; it is on the same side of the city as the railway station (and the cathedral, which is what we were visiting), the room was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. On one of the nights we stayed there, the pub had a party, but the noise did not disturb us in our room. We should definitely consider coming back again.

Neither of these issues bothered us, but: (i) be aware that the hotel is at the top of a steep hill; (ii) the building is comfortable but not picturesque. Other hotels in Norwich are more beautiful (at the appropriate price!).

For the budget price we paid for the room it was a stay that was well worthy of charging more. We had a large room with everything in it you could need including a fridge, iron, ironing board, pod coffee machine, kettle, amble tea coffee and biscuits. Bed was comfy and it was nice and quiet. The breakfast was amazing. A full English breakfast, a wide choice of cereal, fruit juice, yogurt, fruit, bread, tea and coffee.

It was a very long walk up a very steep hill from the city centre. A little bit difficult to find.

The accommodation was perfect for a one night stay for our family of 5...it was a bit like staying in a dorm room which was really fun!! There were lots of facilities in the room including various tea/coffee making facilities, and also a fridge!! Breakfast the next morning was freshly cooked and really lovely, with lots of choice! Plus the pool table was a huge hit with the kids!!

The shower in the bathroom was not the best, but then I'm quite fussy about showers lol.

twin beds.the room.was clean and well equipped the beds were so comfy they had emma mattresses the room was wasn't cluttered definitely will stay again location was good not far from some shops and a 20 to 30 minute walk in to Norwich city centre. the bathroom had a walk in shower and the room we stayed in was ideal of anyone who had a disability or needed the little extras like shower chair grab rails etc. the food menu had a very good choice we only had breakfast which agian had a wide variety of choice overall a pleasant stay

nothing to dislike

My friends and I have stayed here 4 or 5 times over the last 10 years for several days each time. A good experience every time. Always friendly and a good breakfast. This time one of my friends fell ill, and Lorraine went above and beyond to help us in a tricky situation. I would have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation and we plan to keep using it whenever we are up that way in the future.

Very pleasant room with all the facilities you could want. Coffee machine with nice capsules included at no extra cost. The bed was far too soft for me but for others it would be perfect. The owners of the B&B are lovely, could not be more attentive and accommodating. EV charger on site and at a reasonable cost was very welcome after a 180 mile trip to Norwich. To top it off, it located above a proper pub complete with pool tables, dart boards and good selection of drinks. Breakfast was excellent and the options available to you very impressive.

If being really picky, the water pressure in the shower could be improved.

The location was great - not in the centre of Norwich and only a 15-20 min walk from castle. It only took five minutes to drive from the station. For a pub, it was quiet and the staff were very helpful. Lorraine was welcoming and helpful. The area is full of lovely properties which create a country atmosphere, and I felt safe walking here during the day. Generous serving of breakfast with many options.

I thought the cars that parked close to my window could be kept at least a metre away, especially as I felt that people could look into my room. Otherwise all was good. Although the property was not that stylish, it had a charm - a vintage look. At a time where all b&bs look the same, this was original.

I enjoyed the facilities in my room, not often do you get a coffee machine, fridge a brilliant idea, portable tables to work or eat from, iron and ironing board, safe, good size bathroom, bed was clean and comfy, happy I was ground floor, with mobility problems, I think 2 rooms ground floor and the family rooms and other rooms upstairs. Had a party on nextdoor bar so enjoyed the music, liked the Historic building.. Got taxis there has unsure of walking up hill and not sure how far away it was etc. But walked back to train station took me a little longer 22mins. 15mins for a good walker. Reasonable size back garden, was lovely with sun shining a covered area with TV. Staff were welcoming. Had a relaxing evening 👍. Had a good breakfast which was included in price. Nice cooked breakfast, help yourself to Fruit juice, cereal, fruit etc.

Nothing.. It done what it was suppose to do.. Accommodation purposes.
