The shower in the bathroom was not the best, but then I'm quite fussy about showers lol.

The accommodation was perfect for a one night stay for our family of 5...it was a bit like staying in a dorm room which was really fun!! There were lots of facilities in the room including various tea/coffee making facilities, and also a fridge!! Breakfast the next morning was freshly cooked and really lovely, with lots of choice! Plus the pool table was a huge hit with the kids!!

putting it at the bottom of the hill?

The William was a lovely friendly old working man's pub. The staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. We didn't want a massive breakfast but I saw the one that was available and it was huge! We just had poached eggs, perfectly cooked, very tasty.

It is a pub, so was rather noisy up until 11ish. Mattress a bit soft

Breakfast excellent and room had some lovely coffee and hot chocolate. The room had everything you could want.

I was surprised there was no food available in the eveing as it does display food available. In a ground floor room I found the noisy floor above and the water drainage woke me on several occasions. Bed not particularly comfortable for me. That's purely a personal preference though.

The breakfast was very good value and ample. Room facilities good.

Pub no longer serves food (apart from breakfasts) but good chip shop down the road.

Great room, comfortable bed, good shower. Coffee maker, fridge etc. Nice beer garden. Close enough to walk to city centre, near river and cathedral. Excellent breakfasts. Friendly staff.

The entrance to the rooms are through a pub downstairs, or the emergency exit. It’s a unique experience but I didn’t realize this until I arrived. Unfortunately the wifi wasn’t working in my room, there was a coffee splash stain on the baseboards under the desk, and the surfaces of bedside tables were a bit dusty.

The owners/staff are friendly and helpful, they regularly asked if I needed anything in my room. Check in and out was very easy. The room was decent and spacious and had all key amenities (except a safety deposit box). Bathroom clean and looked newly updated walls. The easiest way to reach the Inn is by airport taxi or uber, but it’s a scenic walk back from the city center about 20mins walking (last bits uphill).

Small and peaceful in a quiet location. Walking distance to the city.

Given the number of brilliant, atmospheric pubs in the vicinity, the William IV really ought to do more to offer a couple of real ales, which would have meant we certainly, would have spent longer actually frequenting the pub for a few pints and a game of pool before moving on or arriving back later.

Great location, near to the train station, river Wensum and a host of really good real ale pubs. The William IV not only has a convenient location, but also includes parking and a great breakfast, which for the price is nothing short of brilliant!

Our only issue was that the hotel is a steep walk from station but it did not spoil our stay. You just need to be aware if you are not arriving by car.

Friendly staff and casual vibe. Very good cooked breakfast. Everything you might need was available in your room. This is a sports pub so plenty of sport on tv. But was not over noisy so not heard in our room.

Helpful friendly staff. Rooms well equipped, comfy beds and well thought out . Breakfast options really well thought out and beautifully cooked. Great sausages!

Nothing, everything was fine.

Only downside was the walk, uphill from the railway station. Everything I asked for, for breakfast, I got. All amenities were available, any extras for my room, arrived straight away.

Room a little dated. Sorry to say but bedding was not very clean stains on pillows and duvet not very clean. Also a lot of stains in bathroom and coffee machine needed descaling so couldn’t use that.

Friendly staff. Great breakfast

Bit of a way out of the town centre up a v steep hill but not a real issue!

Very friendly staff, made a real effort to ensure we could watch the Lions match on TV, food was good honest pub grub. Breeakfast was excellent, rooms were a good size with decent size TV, AC and range of condiments etc.
