Maids Head Hotel
Our four-star hotel is situated close to the old centre of Norwich. Bedrooms are individually decorated and are equipped with TV, telephone, hairdryer, ironing facilities and hospitality tray. The hotel has a lift, but as this is an historic building, there are a few steps necessary to negotiate.
