Property was great. Breakfast was really good. Area around the hotel was pretty dead, but there were a few good restaurants. Public parking was difficult to navigate

8/10 Very good

Only drawback is lack of free parking. All day parking available a 5 minute walk away. There is an unloading place and short stay parking right outside.

Already planning to come back

Lovely old historical hotel in the middle of the oldest and most interesting part of Kings Lynn. It’s next to the restaurant get and the views to the river and /or the Customs House are great. Service was really good and friendly. Room was superb! We are in the restaurant with friends and loved everything. Breakfast was excellent. We didn’t realise how nice Kings Lynn is to visit & already want to come back and stay here again

Very nice overall. Dinning room a bit cold and soulless but food was excellent. Room comfortable but too warm.

A room with a view

Attic room, so a couple of flights of stairs, but the guy at check in carried both our cases upstairs for us. Lovely view of the Great Ouse. We enjoyed people watching from the two window. Appreciated the electric fan in the room. Breakfast was nice and the staff helpful and pleasant. The lady staff member enjoyed a laugh when she mistook my bearded husband gor another bearded guest.

The only issue is parking. The Kings Lynn parking machine requires you to feed coins for limited hours. I had to download their unique pay app to avoid feeding the meter every few hours day and night.

Bank House festival too weekend

What a brilliant time we had here. Staff were great the hotel was clean, tidy and very smart. The weekend was festival too weekend in Kings Lynn with the music stage in the square outside the hotel. The group opening the festival the Rick Parfitt Jnr band were excellent they must have played for two hours a rock party band - brill. They were followed by a fireworks display that we could see from our room - fantastic. We ate at the hotel a couple of times food very good. Would highly recommend the Bank House.

Enjoyable stay in elegant rooms

Enjoyed our stay in the ambience of this delightful 18th century house, very carefully restored for use as an hotel. Food was good and the room comfortable. The only drawback for two late eighty year olds was that the shower wasn't too easy to use for us. We also had an interesting problem with parking as we parked outside the flood defence wall and when we went to breakfast found the car shut out from the town because of an expected flood with an above normal high tide. We were able to retrieve it later in the morning fortunately.

Great hotel but room was cold

Great room great staff great view comfortable bed but so cold and the thermostat wouldn’t work?? Such a shame but I will stay again, the car parking is ready complex and I ended up with a ticket

Mixed experience

The hotel and our room was excellent but the service in the restaurant, particularly at breakfast, had problems. There was still no service 15 minutes after the beginning of breakfast with 4 tables occupied and it was only after intervening with the chef that he came out to serve coffee and take orders
Denis, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was okay, a little on the stark side with a low beam across the middle. Not good for tall people like us. The bathroom really needs upgrading. Very friendly staff.

Beautiful building but amenities lacking

Treated ourselves to the most expensive room and was disappointed. The bed was broken (half the legs missing resulting in rolling into middle) and the coffee machine didn’t work. Instructions for the coffee machine didn’t match the machine we had so not much help. The room included champagne service, but there was no mention whatsoever in the room of any room service so still non the wiser what this was ?! The food wasn’t bad but not as good either. Main even meals were very salty. Selection at breakfast was mediocre at best. Just cereal in boxes and dried fruit in jars the hot menu was good variety but special requests were bit hit and miss. First time ever only 1slice of toast brought to table and hollandaise sauce tasted only of vinegar. Overall disappointed at £300 spent for one night and evening meal.

Pretty good stay

Pretty good… loved the room. Breakfast was a little weird, we were instructed to move tables then the host leaned over us on 3 separate occasions!
Guy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was our third stay at The Bank House and the staff in general have always been friendly and helpful. The Bar areas are well appointed and service was good. Our room ( Purfleet ) was at the top of the building and had a nice view over the square. The room itself is a little dated ( Bathroom in particular) but had nice touches like a coffee machine / nibbles etc.
Gary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Large lovely room overlooking Great Ouse in ancient building of much charm and history. Helpful front desk staff. Area around hotel made one feel as if one were in the Low Countries. Amazing architecture.
