Le Strange Arms

Lovely traditional Hotel overlooking the beach, the photos don’t lie. My sister and I had a weekend break to relax together and this was perfect. We had a twin room overlooking the sea, and spotlessly clean, and super biscuits👍 The whole place was clean, bright and comfortable with a good atmosphere, with happy staff . Breakfast menu was good and dinner did not disappoint. We can recommend this relaxing traditional Hotel, which is well positioned for walks on the beach and close to Town.

Really nice hotel. Sort of old fashioned rooms but I see this as a positive as the modern copy and paste rooms offered by the chain hotels remind me of business trips. The rooms are lovely and clean and spacious and amazingly (puts at least) offered a bath, a rarity and luxury in hotels these days. Receptionist was lovely and super helpful. My only slight niggle is the parking, it was ample during our visit and don't suspect getting parked in the free of charge car park will ever be an issue, but the parking warden for the public car park challenges you every time you try and park in the hotel car park, it is never an issue once you provide your proof of booking but feels a little like you are crossing an international border for my liking. This is the only reason I didn't give five stars.

We held our wedding here for 46 guests, some of whom booked in for either 1 or 2 nights. What an absolute fabulous day and exceptionally well managed by Tanya and her team. Everything went like clockwork and everything from the drinks to the wedding breakfast was superb. The surroundings are beautiful and even the weather played it's part. I would not hesitate in recommending this super hotel to anyone looking at holding a wedding here. All the guests without exception were very happy with their rooms and we were delighted with the organisation and hard work all the staff led by Tanya put in on the day. Thank you, you made a good day a great one!

Came here for Sunday lunch. Staff were friendly. Our table was in a corner even though there were some lovely available tables in the conservatory part with amazing views. These were still free by the time we left so a bit disappointed. Apart from that the food was really tasty. The biggest Yorkshire I’ve ever had. The apple and cinnamon crumble was the best I’ve ever had. 3 courses for £25.50 was great value. Would come again but would ask about a better table.

First off, I don't think it's worth a 4* rating. Maybe 3.5* but then again you have to think about where you are. There is a lot of good to be said: I basically love this place. I came here alone just as a way to get some headspace it's ticked every box for that. The room is large and basically furnished but with pretty good stuff. The decor is inoffensive and neutral, no nasty post-war carpets or any of that. The bathroom is pretty swish and for some reason has two sinks. Cute. The bed is THE most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, and my mattress at home cost over a grand. Amazing. I can see the sea from my window (ground floor rooms have a little outside area which do open out on to the car park, which is a slight downer but the upper floors don't have balconies so you pick). It's about two minutes to the beach (with actual sand). And of course Hunstanton is a short walk (albeit not an especially interesting one) away. Down sides: Like everywhere in this neck of the woods it is about 50 years behind the times if not more. There are a fair few Americans about and I would imagine they'd call it "quaint." I think it's outdated in terms of the building itself (not the rooms). For a supposed 4* hotel it doesn't help the national image... There is no a/c. Again, just a sign of being behind the times but in such a huge building I imagine this would be a nightmare to Parking is tight on spaces. They try to control it but there was only one space when I arrived. You have to give your name to a geezer who controls the main beach parking to get in but he's a nice enough bloke. Speaks plainly. If you don't like that you'll find him rude. The bar staff are a bit iffy. Not that they aren't nice people but it's obvious bar duty is not a dedicated role and they don't know how to make cocktails. And finally, and this isn't a criticism of the hotel but just the antiquated nature of English seaside places: You won't find good food anywhere. But what there is, is relatively cheap and cheerful. 11/10 would come again if I had the disposable income to splash £200 a night on a room. I do think it's a bit overpriced. But I've enjoyed myself. Thank you, Strange Arms for a decent stay.

Used the allocated car park for a day out at the beach, we asked how much it cost and if there was any spaces left, the bloke in charge of it came to our window and stared me down, pointing, "LOOK AT THE SIGN, YEAH? READ THE SIGN." I looked round, then back at him, he then repeated 'READ. THE. SIGN." with a nasty look on his face. There were 4 of us in the car and we were just silent in disbelief at how disgustingly he spoke to us. I bit my tongue, and told him no, we're not parking here. As we left we saw him doing the same thing to other people trying to park. I read some much older reviews on here and I can see that others have experienced this too, so obviously nothing has been done about it. To the hotel manager - I'd strongly suggest relieving this man of his job, as he's clearly not happy with it.

Lovely views , right in front of beach, room very warm, and fan really noisy, and nowhere suitable to put it , unless on bedside cabinet where it was like a gale blowing . Wallpaper peeling off wall which you do not expect at prices paid . Did not eat in hotel, ate in restaurant next door , some really good staff, but some of the younger ones need a bit of training in Customer Services

Great weekend stay for a wedding. Lovely outside vibes and one of the best sunset locations around. Mix of hotel guests separate party guests and wedding guests wasn’t ideal, especially with a slow bar service, but staff were friendly and helpful throughout. In terms of the hotel, they are currently doing the carpets so some “building” work but nothing to moan about. An older style hotel with some modern touches. Younger couples easily fit in here alongside the older clientele.

Had a lovely stay here in a sea facing room, staff all friendly, breakfast was filling and a good variety Hotel bar has a very small selection of draught drinks and not particularly up to date ones Would have given 5 stars bit communal areas and rooms looking tired and dated, just a lick of paint would work wonders That said would definitely stay again
