We recently had three nights here. Our room was on the top floor, where there were nice views down towards the sea front and overlooking the square. We were pleasantly surprised how spacious the room was, with a good size ensuite too. The double bed was just two pushed together, however the bed was comfortable and didn't really bother us. The shower was roomy and gave options of rainfall or spray showering, with good water pressure. (For those that like to keep their hair dry) There are no lifts in the Hotel, with two flights of stairs to climb, with cases/bags maybe a little difficult if elderly or have a disability. (If this was the case however, you could always check with the Hotel before booking, to maybe sort something..so don't let this put you off) There is also first floor accommodation for consideration. The weather was good so the Bar below our window, became reasonably busy, so you could hear people. This again didn't bother us, and the Bar closes at 22:00. Likewise with the theatre opposite, you could hear the music, however we rather liked this. With temperatures being as they were, we felt the hotelier should have considered some fans for the rooms, as even with windows flung wide it was extremely hot/uncomfortable. Food for thought? At the time of our visit the restaurant was closed for food, due to staffing shortages. The Hotel has a sister restaurant a short walk away, which we visited for a drink only, but must say it all looked nice with plenty of choice. During busy times I would recommend pre booking restaurants in or around Hunstanton,as it is extremely busy and you could be left disappointed. A lesson we are learning. The Hotel does have parking for 6-8 vehicles, although it can get busy, we never had any problems. Once you receive your key from the bar area, and a few service instructions we never saw anyone after that, and with the hotel being busy hardly saw a soul. Overall a pleasant stay. We recommend this Hotel, which is really good value money, and wouldn't hesitate to use the in...

Read moreI recently stayed at the Marine Bar Hotel, and it exceeded my expectations. All the staff were friendly and welcoming upon arrival at the bar.
The room I had was comfortable and well-appointed, with all the amenities you’d expect. The flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi were a nice touch. Stunning sea views from my room, which were a perfect way to wake up in the morning!
The on-site restaurant in the bar area was great. I enjoyed delicious breakfasts and meals at reasonable prices. The bar also offers an impressive selection of drinks, and you are able to enjoy them with seating inside and out.
The Bar Hotel is conveniently located in the middle of Hunstanton, which makes it easy to walk to the different tourist spots and local attractions.
If you’re arriving by car, the bar hotel has a car parking area on the side that is free to use for guests, which is a massive bonus.
I highly recommend the Marine Bar Hotel for anyone visiting Hunstanton. It’s a great place to stay, with great service and great food and drink.
I’ll...
