LondonGuy Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Hi, Virgin boater here again! So if I hired a boat from Ferry Marina, where is a good place to stay (will have a car) the night pre-boat-pick-up. It would not have to be at Horning. Even 30-60 mins away would be fine. Any suggestions please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Depending what you are looking for I tend to find that a Premier Inn is as good as anywhere. I used one recently which was at Broadlands Business Park just off the A47, east of Norwich. Room was great, bed very comfortable and the food good in the Brewers Fayre restaurant. All very well organised and COVID secure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnysMon Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 There’s a Travelodge in Acle, which is pretty handy for Horning. Haven’t stayed there though. The only place we’ve stayed overnight in the area, apart from on a boat, is the Norwich Holiday Inn on the Ipswich Road, just off the A47, which is pretty convenient for getting to the Broads.

NeilB Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I've not stayed for several years now but take a look at the hotel Wroxham, great location to get a boaty start to the holiday. Especially if you have a balcony overlooking the river. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Not cheap either, for this time of year, £135 per night Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier Inn was £38 and exactly what we needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickpea Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I've stayed in the Premier Inn in Duke Street Norwich a couple of times. There's discounted parking in the multi-storey next door. Norwich is a lovely city to have a wander round, and obviously there are loads of options for eating out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnoar Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 The old Hotel Nelson by the river in Norwich, may well be a Premier Inn too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamElla Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 If you stay at the Travelodge, Acle you can make the 3 minute drive to the Bridge Inn at Acle riverside for an evening drink and meal (and Scooters Cafe within walking distance of the Travelodge will serve you a good breakfast in the morning) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham47 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 We have previously stayed at The Brick Kilns at Little Plumstead. Nice pub and a good menu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jayfire Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 What the fudge is going on with this website The travelodge at Acle is sound mate, cheap..cheerful..and as mentioned already, very local and handy for many facilities if you choose to not make full use of the bed available Unless the lady in your life is a bit posh......the type that shops at waitrose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I like Premier Inn also and I've stayed at the Norwich riverside one which is a lovely location. I've also used Acle Travelodge a few times and it can be a cheap option but not always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I’ve stayed at the Premier Inn by the river in Norwich as well. That was also very good, just depends whether you want to be going into the city centre.
