Great hotel. Slightly tired (but massive) suite

Another great stay. Welcomed by the ever friendly staff and had a very simple check in. The suite was very spacious, if a little ‘tired’. The collection of furniture was a little comical, with old tiger print sofas and colonial wardrobes all having seen better days. The bed was big and pretty comfortable. The bath was deep and luxurious. However the shower took an age to warm up and left me shivering and wet for about 10 minutes (not great with a cold). For breakfast I opted for the full English, which was fine. I’m not sure value of the value money though. Checkout was super swift and pleasant. Will definitely stay again.

Convenient

Convenient location but the car park was a mystery so used the municipal car park on the same street. Were given an accessible room which is OK but wasn't requested or needed. Dinner was a very pleasant surprise - it was delicious and we couldn't have been better looked after.

Not Clean

I booked a suite but when I went into the bathroom I found that it had not been cleaned, soap still in the soap dish, and overflowing bin. I was going out and was short on time, complained to the manager who quickly offered a complimentary breakfast and free car park. I asked if they would transfer my bags to the new room due to my lack of time. On my return the room was a basic (much cheaper) but to my dismay the bathroom was filthy, floor was disgusting, shower had hair in it and towel rail rusting. The carpet was stained, bed clean fortunately. I complained in the morning and was told that "they were sorry!" I mentioned that this is the worst hotel thst I have stayed in for years and my breakfast/car park was no saving due to the room down grade...again 'they are sorry!" Not acceptable and am going to take this further!

Mixed feelings about this hotel

The beds were tired, the shower leaked into the bedroom and the bathroom extractor fan went on for 40 minutes. On the plus side great location, desk staff were very friendly and parking was secure

Not for business, ok for pleasure

I recently stayed at the St Giles on a business trip. Couldn't fault the people who work there, absolutely everyone I interacted with was wonderful. Areas for improvement: one of the light bulbs wasn't working in the room and hadn't been changed, and the lighting in the room in general was very dark when trying to work. There were no accessible plug sockets in the room to plug my laptop in - again tricky when working. I ended up doing a zoom call sat on the floor plugged into a socket under a dressing table (not desk) by unplugging the fridge because of a lack of access. I accept the hotel is old but these are really basics that most people will need and so perhaps thought to renovating with the end user in mind might be useful. The TV didn't work properly for poor signal which is easily resolved. The water took a considerable time to warm up which is fine if you're not in a hurry to get somewhere. All in all, if you're going to Norwich for a leisurely trip and not in a hurry then this hotel is probably for you. If you need efficiency and the ability to work it's probably not the best choice.
