I have stayed at the Griffin many times and will continue to choose this venue above any others in the area. Its just a pub with rooms upstairs. It has a good restaurant, and thats exactly what I am looking for. Onsite parking is tight but I've never had any issue parking outside.
450 yr old coach house in the middle of town.
The staff helpful. Free parking, breakfast included.
Rooms were good and clean with comfortable beds.
The main bar and dining area needs a full revamp , carpet would benefit from being removed and the old wood flooring brought back to life, the odour of old stale smoke from an era of open fires still hangs in the air. It’s time for fresh blood to take the reins and the owner gentleman to think about enjoying his latter years and not trying to continue working to the end. I have empathy for his willpower but sometimes you need to consider calling time
A very interesting ancient inn. The town is spoilt by the fast roads going through the centre and the limited options for eating out other than in the hotel. The church is beautiful!

Very friendly staff in an old pub / hotel setting. Room very clean and comfortable with a great breakfast in the morning. Great location for Snetterton race track that I was visiting
It's a 470 year old inn; so the floors are a bit wonky and there is no lift but the bedroom is otherwise good 3 star standard and the staff are courteous and helpful, the restaurant serves good Englsh cuisine at reasonable prices and the bar atmosphere is that of a village pub. and it couldn't be closer to the centre of town
Room clean and comfy with plenty of space. Be aware the floor in room not level but not a problem for us once we realised. Stairs to room a bit wobbly so you need to take care. Old building but clean. Breakfast was delicious with local butchers sausage and bacon. Parking a bit of a problem so we had to park in public car park for 3 Hours ( Free) until space available.
A lovely English Inn. It's an old building looking out on the town and church.
The bed was comfortable and room was warm.
The staff very friendly. Breakfast was great.
Richard is a character. Will come again when visiting family.
Its just an old Coaching Inn. A pub with rooms on the upper floor, and that is precisely what I love about the place. Never an issue with parking, and two large Supermarkets within a few minutes walk. Takeaways line the main road if something varied is required, but the Griffin has an excellent restaurant serving excellent wholesome fresh tukka. The breakfast option is also excellent. I have stayed there many times and will continue to do so.

Our room had several cracks in the walls and ceiling. The shower had very little power and the mattress was old and uncomfortable. Underneath the bed was very dusty. The breakfast was ok although no fresh fruit. But the staff were friendly and it wasn’t expensive. Given a choice we wouldn’t stay there again.
