There was no hot water for our last 3 days & no heating. Appreciate things break down but no communication. So no showers and cold in our room but nothing done to help even though we told manager. Very noisy music on Saturday pm and rowdy group at the bar Sat night. Our dining table was right by them. Small refund given for inconvenience re 2 days but should have been for 3. Will not stay here again. Bit of a ‘Fawlty Towers’!

The best customer service ever

This is the second time I've been with my other half and it was just as enjoyable as the first. The customer service is beyond reproach and there's a friendliness to the staff that is much appreciated. The Cementing meal that I had was wonderful. I had pigeon breast followed by halibut and then cheese board. Also had a nice bottle of Charlie's a glad of port. I'm hoping to make this an annual trip

Staff, food excellent. Great location for visiting Sandringham . Only disappointment was the overhead shower, having reported no hot water , although the attachment hose worked , Got told someone would look at it . No correspondence from the hotel management to the outcome . Next day overhead shower still no hot water . Shame it spoit the experience of staying at the Kings head .

Great for tourists

Our stay got off to a great start with the lovely receptionist taking us to our room with a bottle of iced water which was most welcome after a long drive. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable with all the amenities we would expect. Dinner was superb. The wait staff were extremely polite and helpful. The bed was super comfy and the next morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast with every need catered for by the lovely hosts. Would certainly recommend and go back for another stay.
