Property Description

Located in the historic quarter of Norwich city centre, opposite the famous Norman cathedral, the Maids Head is believed to be the oldest hotel in the UK. Dating back to the 12th century, it is rumoured that Queen Elizabeth I and Catherine of Aragon have been among its many guests. Today, it offers both contemporary and period character bedrooms, all with free Wi-Fi and satellite TV. Norwich Castle, The Forum and Norwich Market are a short walk away. The award-winning WinePress@Wensum Restaurant serves fine food, with 40 wines available by the glass. The hotel has its own tapas bar and a Jacobean snug bar, once patronised by Horatio Nelson.
