Premier Inn, Norwich City Centre, Duke Street

Free parking is available at a car park just next door. The licensed restaurant in the hotel has a delicious selection of main meals, snacks and serves Costa coffee.

With its ancient buildings and city wall remains, Norwich is the most complete medieval city in Britain. It is dominated by a superb cathedral and a Norman castle – plus a vibrant mix of theatres, shopping (one of the UK’s top ten places), pubs and restaurants.

There is also easy access to the Norfolk countryside: the picturesque Norfolk Broads are a short drive away, with their windmills, unspoilt waterways and abundant wildlife. The Norfolk Coast is also nearby, with peaceful resorts to the east, and timeless villages and dramatic scenery to the north in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
