A pleasing 2 night stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cliff hotel. It was freshly redecorated everywhere and very clean. Our room was spacious and comfortable with complimentary tea/coffee. The service was average but a lovely waitress at breakfast made up for it. Gluten free bread and oat milk were available. The outside spaces were very pleasant with nice views. The food was average.

Great views

The Cliff Hotel has a great outdoor Terrace that overlooks the sea and river. When the weather is nice, its a great place to eat or have a drink, especially breakfast. In more inclement times, you can eat/drink inside and still have the great views. The staff were friendly & helpful and you can see some great sun-rises if your room overlooks the sea to the east.

Feel the standard has dropped staff seemed inexperienced apart from receptionist bar manager and Kieran. Our meal was disappointing with grit in the muscles dish and in the 3 Linguine pastas. When we made waitress aware she said it was thoroughly washed. Breakfast lady was quite rude we made reception aware.

Great stay

We stayed three nights in a small room . It was ample in size , comfortable and if anything too warm. A decent size bath with shower and toiletries provided. Breakfast was a feast with a great menu, and the evening meal reasonable. Staff were engaging and friendly and all requirements were dealt with efficiently. Will definitely stay here again. Gorleston beach and high street were all within walking distance, so the car wheels rarely turned . Hotel has stunning views from the restaurant which is modern, bright and airy.
