The Red Lion – Cromer

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights with our dog. Excellent hotel. We ate in the restaurant twice, as the food the first night was so good. The dog was allowed everywhere. Bar has a great selection of draft craft beer/real ale and is very welcoming. I rarely write reviews, but this experience was so good I felt everyone should know!!

We had a fabulous 2 night stay in room 7. The room was very comfortable, views of the sea and sunrise. Very dog friendly, loved the treat bag, bed and bowls for our little Jack. Staff were friendly and helpful....especially Shaun and the breakfast lady (sorry I didn't get your name) Breakfasts were amazing, sadly Sunday roasts had run out but I had be warned they may do. Lovely little outside area out the back was a bonus.

Had a great visit to Cromer and stayed at The Red Lion. Couldn't rate it higher. Beautiful room; lovely view; delicious food; perfect weather and doggie friendly. Close to all amenities. Extensive choice of local beers and I've found a new favourite - Norfolk Port PX, yummy! Friendly and informative staff. All found, a super break. Thank you!

Large party went for sunday lunch, service was first class very pleasant staff, all our meals came out together. Starters were lovely, main was ok but we thought the lamb was a bit on the tough side for that cut. Sweet was lovely. Not the cheapest but we enjoyed our visit.

We loved our stay here and the hotel is certainly deserving of the reviews and rating. The hotel is in a prime location, right on the seafront. There is a very small car park out back for hotel patrons. Unfortunately due to being a rather old building, there is no lift, but I was made aware of this when booking and chose to stay regardless. When we arrived at the hotel staff were quick to help with getting luggage upstairs when they spotted my mobility aid. The room was spacious and spotless with a sweet welcome note and fresh cookies. There were all the usual things, teas and coffees, but lovely little extras that make all the difference, like a pack of playing cards to take home. The room had a hair dryer, a large oscillating fan, slippers and gowns in the wardrobe. The en suite was large and very clean. We opted to have dinner at the hotel. The menu is quite concise and there is just the one vegan option-banana blossom fish and chips-but what an option it is! Absolutely exquisite and a huge portion which I couldn't finish. Definitely give this dish a try, i am sure it won't disappoint. Cocktails were also delicious. Breakfast was included in our booking and was also really tasty and fresh. Pastries, coffee, a fresh fruit smoothie and a vegan cooked breakfast. I would love to stay again!
