The bedroom was spotless. Everywhere was clean and the staff very helpful. But top marks go to the breakfast. Being a vegetarian i didnt expect much choice. However not only a cooked vegetarian breakfast but also a cooked vegan . Along with a buffet style, Ive not seen this before.

Dated, but I will be back…..

So, not the most modern hotel in the world and quite frankly, it is overdue a refurb but that should not put you off staying. The Team are extremely welcoming, the rooms are clean and daily housekeeping cannot be faulted. Breakfast choice is good and I enjoyed what was put in front of me. I have stayed elsewhere in Lowestoft and paid more for the privilege however I will return to the Hatfield because of the friendly Team and the seafront location.

Night out with the Boys

Arrived at 2:30 pm and couldn’t check in due to no rooms available (a bit disappointed as I needed to get changed before meeting the boys at 3:00 pm. Managed to get a car parking spot which was good, as limited parking. Hotel clean same as my room which was quite basic but had a good shower.
