Radiator loose, we found a baby bib and a sock in the bedside table, the lamp didn’t work, the WiFi and Netflix in the room didn’t work, a filthy ironing board and a shower that was impossible to enjoy as it kept switching from ice cold to scalding hot. The saving grace was the breakfast.

Beautiful hotel lovely location clean amazing breakfast

This is our 4th stay at The Blackboys Hotel. Our room was a good size and clean. Good choices at breakfast but the portions are way too large.

All staff friendly and efficient. Great to have, in our opinion, excellent food -evening meal and breakfast, good ale and choice of wine by the glass, and service, all on the premises making for an easy stroll back to our room! Our room had cold water coming from the hot tap and vice versa. Took a while to work that out. Informed the manager who made a note to deal with it. We enjoyed our stay and would do so again next time we're in the area.

Very very good value stay after cycling the Marriotts Way from Norwich.Exceptional (large) portions of food and an outstanding Black Boys' 'full English" breakfast lasted us all day.Very comfortable rooms,good real ale bar and restaurant,all very efficiently run.Highly recommended for value,location and service.

The room was clean but a bit dated and the shower cubicle was much to small, the staff were brilliant and the food was the best we have had in a hotel and the portions were very big. Aylsham itself is a lovely village.

Great pub. Dog friendly, lovely food and room.

A delightful very old hotel with much history...old features,jacobean staircase Exposed beams. On edge of market square with small car park. Rooms good size, walk in shower modern, beds comfortable. What made hotel superb was excellent food and menu....portion sizes enormous Staff without exception relaxed/ very helpful and wanting to ensure guests stay goes well.

Room was nice, bed felt like a small double but overall nice. Pub was great and in a good location, had a very good lunch.

The Hotel was quite Olde Worlde dated in places but to be expected given the age of the place,nice comfy bed,clean room, bar area lovely and the outside bar and marquee was excellent,The staff really nice and friendly nothing too much trouble for them,we stayed 2 nights with breakfast very very good portions we struggled a little was very tasty too,we always managed to park behind in the small car park hopefully will return soon.

We really enjoyed our stay with great food and very helpful staff.

We really enjoyed our visit. The only thing we could say is the bed in room 103 could do with replacing, quite uncomfortable. The bathroom should be updated, along with a new bed would make the room excellent. The food we found to very good and overall we will definitely recommend The Black Boys hotel, thank you.

Another fabulous stay. The team are all amazing; food great and the hotel has a great atmosphere.

We had a fabulous stay here, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the room was lovely and the food was out of this world. The only thing I would say is that the parking is a pub carpark and if does get quite busy

We moved room when we first arrived and chose a brighter room, all the staff were super helpful and so friendly, room was bright and spacious, very modern bathroom, breakfast was amazing, huge portions that we could barely finish, lovely lovely stay. Thank you to the team.

Stayed again at this lovely hotel for Easter, food was excellent, very friendly staff, love that they allow dogs, ideal location to explore other nearby places

Breakfast was excellent. Room was adequate, beverage tray had a biscuit added second day but a nice extra. Very dated I’d say, dirty clothes from previous occupant found in unit beside bed! Shower rose totally dislodged in bathroom so water came through the head not the holes, they were hanging down! Waitress from second night was very attentive second morning but staff did not make eye contact & were not friendly disappointedly so when travelling alone.

The hotel was ok considering its age our room was extremely noisy had no sleep for the two night's we stayed due to a busy road and the windows rattled so loudly the second night as there was a high wind we had to fill it with cardboard and tissue paper to try and dtop the rattle On the plus side the staff are lovely and the food great. The hotel is in a good position in the small town

Breakfast and dinner menu was ok.

Room quirky but nice. Staff very helpful. Food and beer good.
