Lovely stay and excellent staff
Lovely stay here for a wedding. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food and drink were good quality too. Our room could have used a bit of a spruce up - mainly just the bathroom as we liked the traditional decor. Would definitely return though.

Norwood Hall is a proper Manor House with all the charm and loveliness that goes along with that. The staff are fantastic, the grounds are magical. We attended a wedding there during our stay - the dining room, food and service were absoutely impeccable. Overall, a wonderful experience and we will absolutely be returning.

On arrival I had a problem with my room door, after waiting in the bar for around 30 mins the very helpful young lady off reception came and offered me a free room upgrade which turned out to be very nice. Breakfast was expensive and very average, bathroom in my room was superb the rest of the hotel was a little musky smelling and in need or some work everywhere except the dinning area and the bathroom, my friends room near reception was very musky smelling and was over £100, stunning gardens with massive tree and lots of parking. over a nice place Im not sure if I would stay again as it wasn't cheap and had its issues, I honestly prefer more modern hotels.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this magnificent hotel and was thoroughly impressed by its grand yet cozy atmosphere. The staff were helpful and kind, but not overbearing. Despite my short stay, I had a great time. There was only one minor issue I found with the playlist in the bar, lounge and library areas. While the intention may have been good, the piano instrumental covers of current pop songs on repeat didn't quite hit the mark for me. I would have preferred some jazz instead, seems more suitable for the design of the hotel and for my intentions to sit by the fire and read all afternoons. Perhaps it was due to licensing restrictions? Overall, though, it was a wonderful experience, and I will definitely be returning.

Nice people, poor hotel
Absolutely muddled maze of a hotel that requires you to take 2 different lifts- one up then another one down(!) to reach your floor. Absolute pain in the backside! Also the restaurant prices are ridiculously high. £24 for a burger, but if you want chips that’s an extra £5. Bar had VERY limited beer selection….lager! Nice people but I wouldn’t choose to return.
