    Pros +

    • Super location by the sea. Manager very helpful. Building very nice with lots of history. We had all our dietary needs met.
    • This is a beautiful old building in a stunning location. The room we booked (deluxe double) was large and spacious. We had dinner at the property on the first night and the food was lovely. The bed was comfy and the location was quiet and peaceful. Our room had beautiful sea views.
    • The location close to Cromer but away from crowds! The staff were excellent and dinner was great!

    Cons -

    • The internet was not very good. It is a dog friendly hotel, but some dogs barked.
    • The website describes the hotel as 4 star luxury but it really didn't feel like a 4 star hotel. The rooms need a refresh and the bathroom was grubby in places. The only shower in the room was an overhead waterfall shower meaning it was impossible to shower without also washing your hair (folk with longer hair will understand). No shower caps were provided so I asked for one and it was provided no problem at all, but it was such poor quality that it was useless. The duvet cover didn't fit the duvet and this hung out, this is unhygienic and did not look like luxury. There are no plug sockets near the bed so devices need to be charged on the floor after scrambling around under furniture to find them. This could be easily fixed with an extension cord. The bedside lamp was also faulty. There is no full length mirror or fridge in the room. None of these things are major in any way, but as the hotel is marketed as 'luxurious' it felt like we didn't get value for money. Another minor thing (but they all add up) is that reception staff don't greet you when you walk in through reception. It just seemed a bit impersonal. This could be an absolutely stunning hotel with a bit more care and attention to the little things. If you have booked here you will have a very pleasant stay in a lovely location, but you won't get the luxury you were promised or paid for.
    • The property needs a much needed maintenance of little things inside and outside.

    We can see why the Sea Marge is such a favourite with people of all ages! It is an exquisite, historical building housing beautiful bar and dining areas. Outside, a beautiful terrace with views over the large, rolling lawn to the sea makes dining, socialising a wonderful experience on a sunny day or balmy evening. Great staff who were warmly welcoming and efficient. Also supplied a very much appreciated bag of dog treats for our blue roan cocker, Dudley. ?

    Nothing!

    5SamanthaPosted on: 4-26-2025

    Location and love the patio area.

    Bit tired, understaffed.

    10LindaPosted on: 4-25-2025

    Another thoroughly enjoyable stay. The staff are always friendly & helpful. The room was spacious, comfortable & the food was delicious

    Nothing was an issue

    9DesPosted on: 4-22-2025

    Property and Location are amazing, Rooms are clean and comfortable. Wifi was free and available in all areas of the Hotel.Staff were welcoming and helpful.

    Breakfast was a bit hit-and-miss. Fairly limited choice, and missed off an item on the first morning, sadly I was pressed for time so couldn't inform a member of staff which was a shame, I'm sure it would have been attended to if they had chance.

    Great location with views out to sea in an Interesting old building. Parking on site was easy and there was on road parking available too.

    Only downside was that we were given a room with a connecting door to another room. This meant that we were disturbed by our neighbours talking and their TV (they weren’t loud - just very little sound proofing).

    8BatemanPosted on: 3-25-2025

    Despite renovation works being carried out. Friendly, helpful staff and amazing sea views

    10SarahPosted on: 3-8-2025

    Nothing to not like

    Location, quietness, friendliness of staff, charming building.

    No working light in the bathroom of the room I was upgraded to...

    7AdrianPosted on: 2-28-2025

    Very clean, friendly staff. Room was nice. Bed was very comfy with decent pillows. The food was good. I would stay here again, and recommend.

    Car park was not easily sign posted and there was scaffolding covering the outside of the hotel, maybe a curtesy notice would have been nice. Room was very small.

    10CandidaPosted on: 2-26-2025

    Beautiful location looking out to sea.The food was wonderful and the staff friendly and very attentive. We were very well looked after. The room was large and very comfortable.

    The weather!!

    9PeterPosted on: 2-1-2025

    It’s a lovely old place full of character. Modern facilities though, heated towel rails, LED lights and the bed was really comfortable. Good pillows too. Heating was responsive when turned on. WiFi wasn’t very strong but did work.

    Nothing I can fault really.

    9MolliePosted on: 1-28-2025

    I had a fantastic stay here during my Norfolk Coast Path hike with my spaniel as a treat away from camping. The room was tastefully decorated and clean, with a lovely waterfall shower and huge mirrors! I had supper and breakfast, both of which were delicious and I could not fault the waiting staff for both meals. Additionally, the duty manager Jack was attentive and chatty which was wonderful as I had barely spoken to anyone all week on my hike. Finally, my hiking attire did not conform to the smart casual dress code and the staff were very kind in allowing me to wear my fleece and crocs inside which I fully appreciated.

    My only quarrel with the property was that the end of the lawn leads rather abruptly onto the crumbling cliff edge. I was very concerned the following morning to discover this as it feels as though an over zealous dog may somehow launch itself off. I appreciate not wanting to put up a solid wall so as not to obstruct the wall, but perhaps a slightly more substantial fence may be in order?

    Beautiful building outside and inside.Our room had a beautiful view.

    9GavinPosted on: 1-27-2025

    I have spent more money for budget hotel chains than I had for this. I got a lot for £55, the room was exceptional with en-suite bath. Beautiful looking hotel with amazing view onto the sea. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Room was clean and up to a good standard.

    There were a few small things. Firstly I believe that you could put a bit more variety on the menu. I appreciate it is a seaside hotel, but menu was mainly fish based, which I didn't fancy at the time and no real alternatives. Would say an extra egg at breakfast and some warmer sausages. Television was a bit too small and putting the electric kettle under it wasn't a wise idea. Also would be an idea to do something with the garden. Got a good deal of space, put some flower beds in etc.

    10SarahPosted on: 1-26-2025

    Lovely hotel and room I've stayed a few times and always enjoy my stay it is very calm and relaxing and the staff are very nice and helpful.

    There wasn't anything to dislike

    10SarahPosted on: 1-19-2025
