Lovely hotel but the room overlooked the beer garden of a pub and so was noisy late into the night.

The reception staff were very helpful and friendly- moved us to a different room to avoid some steep stairs and gave directions on how to get to places. Breakfast was good especially if booked with room giving good value. Also offers on dining and car parking during March a plus.

Unfortunately our room, 114 was very damp. It had a terrible smell as soon as you walked in. The shower worked well but the water didn't run away and was overflowing. This is obviously a common problem in this room as the wall of the ensuite has been patched up and shows serious water damage in the bedroom. Also the sink never emptied either. This shows really poor maintenance of the property. The staff that we spoke to were lovely, the location is brilliant for the town and local amenities. Doubt we'd stay here again though as the room was so bad. 114 should not be used again until the plumbing and damp has been properly rectified. A manger was supposed to call us and discuss the issue, but we have heard nothing.

The Dukes Head has always been the main hotel in the town (I grew up in Kings Lynn) and I was looking forward to the stay. Whilst the diwnstairs public areas were lovely the second floor was very tired and to be.honest a real disappointment. The room was clean although there were stains on the throw on the bed but the furniture has laminate missing in several areas and you could see the chipboard underneath. The tv didnt work although this was rectified The shower drained very slowly and I had to turn the shower off midway through and wait 3 or 4 minutes to prevent flooding the bathroom. We were offered a different room but as we were heading out to meet family for a meal we decided to stay The hotel were aware of the drainage issues so I am not sure why they.put us in there when there were obviously other rooms available.

Very convenient to explore Kings Lynn on foot. The only thing the hotel need to improve on are the lights in the room. They are very dim and the room look quite gloomy.
