Hotel Victoria  

It is ideally located for town and/or beach front. Lovely location and not too big. Have stayed at the hotel before and, if anything, it has improved. Staff are really friendly

I couldn't get a sea-view room, all taken. I shall book earlier next time.

Excellent location. Lovely premises. Good restaurant.

Staff were great.

The hotel is well located and overlooks the esplanade and sandy beach. The gardens are well kept. The room was spacious, clean and tidy. Hotel Staff were pleasant and attentive. Breakfast service was good and plentiful. We would recommend Hotel Victoria to our friends and family

All OK

Poor in house maintenance

The view over the North Sea is fantastic, easy to walk to the beach and an excellent restaurant. The service was excellent especially in the restaurant.

The location - on Kirkley Cliff above the beach in this much underrated seaside town. It's actually one of England's best beaches and Lowestoft has sun for much of the year so a good choice for winter sun. There are also some good places to eat. The Victoria's restaurant is excellent. Sea view rooms and the sunrise. The staff are friendly.

The rooms are a little drab (cream paint and green flooring in the bathroom) and utilitarian rather than luxurious. Beds with sheets and blankets have to be well-made (bottom sheets smoothed etc..) to be comfortable. Duvets (we had one on the campbed provided for our ten year- old) would make a difference. The shower was difficult to get working and the tiled surround to the sink meant the mirrors were at an awkward distance. This would be ok if the room plus breakfast wasn't costing us £160 a night (£10 charge for the extra bed). It's not the Lowestoft way, I know, but a little luxury and more attention to comfort and design wouldn't go amiss.

Friendly staff, good breakfast choice, nice views and location.

There was a function in the restaurant resulting in very loud music in my room, I was told by staff it would finish by 9.30, however it continued until after 11pm. There was also not enough parking, resulting in me having to park on the road quite a way away from the hotel.

Being upgraded to a truly magnificent room overlooking the beach and sea.

Only staying one night! A few nights with my wife would have been ideal.

Food was very good & at a reasonable price

The sea view would have been great if the sea gulls hadn't splattered the window.

Already stated above

Smashing room with sea view, large and comfortable. Very frendly staff good food but bar prices a bit high. The only place to stay in town.

Perfect location next to the beach. Room large and comfortable with a lovely sea view.

The only thing that spoiled our stay was the restricted breakfast hours. We were told on arrival that breakfast was served until 9.30 but when we went down at 9.15 they had finished serving. We checked the menu and it said 7.00 - 9.00. Plenty of staff around but we were only offered toast and coffee. This spoiled our stay because we had a long drive ahead of us that day. When I complained management reduced the bill by 15.00.
