The room needs decorating, the pillows need replacing and the windows need replacing, preferably with double glazing to reduce the noise from the busy road outside.

After returning to the area after 16 years, we chose this hotel for the personal touch over other chain options. The hotel's staff was amazing and accomodating. They provided great service and every meal was delicious. The Thomas Paine Museum was of special interest and full of information for this history buff. We cant wait to book our next trip.

The hotel is not staffed from Monday to Thursday so no restaurant or breakfast and reception. We are met by a lovely young lady who checked us in and left. There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance. Strange coming into a hotel in darkness, but certainly not off putting. We will stay there again.

I was upgraded to the Thomas Paine room and it was amazing. A very special room, with sitting area, writing desk, high ceilings and just gorgeous. The shower was not as powerful or user friendly as I would have liked, but I could cope. There was confusion over breakfast - it has to be booked in advance online, and is only a box breakfast. There is currently a lot of building work going on in the public areas, but this is hoped to be finished soon and the final result looks as though it is going to be amazing. The owner was very friendly and proud of his hotel, rightly so. I would definitely go back, especially once the building work is finished.

After travelling 260 miles it was very disappointing to find that the entrance to car park was blocked off due to construction work. We had difficulty navigating the one way system and pedestrian walkways etc to find an alternative entrance at the rear of the hotel. Also the main reception door was locked so we had to carry our luggage round the exterior of the property to enter by a make shift front entrance where decorators were working. There was no breakfast available and no bar do to the refurbishments being carried out. Won't be returning to this hotel again as it was definitely not good value for the price paid.

Centrally located and check-in service. However the rooms and public areas leading to the rooms could benefit from a fresh coat of paint.

Fantastic hospitality! Gez and Rosie made me feel like I was family in my hometown. The meals were lovingly prepared from scratch and locally sourced beef! They were absolutely delicious! My room was a large corner suite with a newly renovated bathroom…quiet, comfortable and stocked with tea, coffee, milk and lovely biscuits.
The gin selection is fantastic along with great wines at the very warm and friendly bar…staff and family were always on hand to take great care of you.
I would highly recommend a weekend stay if you’re passing through town as a solo traveler.
Then what’s more is the history of Thomas Paine himself…if you don’t know about Thetford’s famous son…then take a trip to the Thomas Paine Hotel for walk through history on inspirational American Independence.
Will definitely be back for a visit!
