After having many Shearings breaks the Carlton Hotel is the best yet, Warm 24 hours a day, spotless clean, rooms cleaned with fresh towels etc every day, best food ever with good sized proportions, cod was amazingly fresh and all food was cooked to perfection, the most relaxing hotel without doubt, bar staff very friendly and with four free drinks, top brands at that! Every day was a very good gesture on behalf of Shearings and finally a mention for our driver Derek, he couldn’t have done more!

Lovely time

We have just returned from a great weekend at the Carlton Hotel Great Yarmouth, We spent 2 nights in this hotel for our honeymoon and we decided to return there this year for our 20th wedding anniversary. The room was lovely and the staff were great and made our stay and weekend to remember.

Enjoyable break

I have just returned from a five day break at the Carlton Hotel, Great Yarmouth. My single room was lovely, a good size and very clean. It had a very generous sized bathroom. I had paid extra for a sea view which was worth it! The staff were friendly and helpful. The food choices were very good and the service excellent. The hotel is located in a great location and I enjoyed the trips out. All in all excellent value for money.

Staff Fantastic!

My 5th visit and the staff are just fantastic, nothing too much trouble. But hotel tired and in dire need of a total refurbishment. Food standard has dropped since last visited, not sure if food budget has been cut. Smoking arrangements appalling and very dangerous, smoker's expected to navigate down steep metal steps into a filthy basement yard about 4ft x 3ft full of rubbish and walls green with damp!

I Will Be Back

Just returned from our third Shearing Holiday at the Carlton Hotel Great Yarmouth. My wife and I were very impressed with all the facilities. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Good entertainment, great location and excellent food. I would like to give a special thanks to Mike for his great knowledge of the area, and being a great driver, as we’ve found all the Shearing drivers to be. Looking forward to my next Shearing Holiday. Thanks Again.

Reasonable

We have just come back from the Carlton. As far as hotels go we found it ok but as someone else says they could do with more staff in the dining room. Our room was very good and the meals were enjoyable. The evening entertainment was ok but the rules on free drinking were rather restrictive. The staff though could not be faulted. They were brilliant. I was concerned though that I saw no disabled facilities and the smoking arrangements were horrible. I am sorry to say we won't be returning.

Enjoyable stay at the Carlton

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Carlton Hotel through National Holidays it was a five day break. The entertainment was excellent. The food was good the only drawback was the waitresses were run off their feet. Personally I felt there should have been more staff for the amount tables they had to serve. But apart from that the staff were friendly and very helpful. The bedrooms were clean and quite comfortable. The rest of the public areas of the hotel were very comfortable.

An excellent stay at The Carlton

This is our 5th visit and it was wonderful. The room was clean and very comfortable. The food was excellent and so were the staff. Thank you for another lovely stay, we have already booked for September. We would like to thank Mike and Penny at reception and Tony and Paul behind the bar and last but not least Rui our waiter. See you all in September.

Have been back from the Carlton Hotel for 2 weeks and we enjoyed it so much we are going back again next week!! A lovely, warm and welcoming hotel, excellent location, great staff, superb food, absolutely nothing about the whole experience not to like, will definitely return again and again. Have been to many of Shearings Hotels since retiring but this has got to be the very best. Superb!!
