I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Marriott Waterside. Staff was very friendly and helpful. My room had a beautiful view and was clean and stocked with the essentials I needed for my stay there. I didn’t dine at the restaurant on site but the drinks from the bar were really good! Would definitely stay there again and would highly recommend for anyone staying in the Norfolk area

The room was very clean and the staff were excellent (very helpful and polite). Our club room included access to the first floor lounge and accompanying breakfast, which was also excellent. Unfortunately, the first room we were given was too hot on the first day, so they had to move us to a different room for the remainder of our stay.
