I stayed in The Southern for several weeks and couldn't have asked for more. Sally and the whole team were very welcoming, the breakfast was big and good and arrived quickly. The small bar catered for our evening entertainment and there were always helpful suggestions for places to eat out and things to do. My room was large with a... More

I enjoyed my stay at the southern on entering I felt a warmth which made me feel right at home from the moment I entered. Staff were lovely and friendly and cleanliness was at a great standard. It was only a few minute walk from the pier and seafront which was ideal for our weekend visit. Food was great full... More

Was greeted by a very rude and abrupt landlady upon arrival. Downstairs smelt badly of dogs and upstairs of an old peoples home. Views from room were disapointing and over priced. More

We were disappointed that Phil found us to be lacking and that he felt I was rude, not everyone understands my sense of humour. We do have dogs but they are not allowed into any public areas in the hotel. My guests would be disappointed to be put into old folks home catagory. I would comment the same as the... More

The Southern once a Merchant's House with it's wide impressive carved staircase, overlooks private grounds in a quiet position but close to the Wellington Pier, Leisure Centre and Outer Harbour. The Southern having undergone a complete refurbishment when purchased 7 years ago is continually being redecorated to keep it in the best of decorative order. We now have some “... More

Booked this hotel for a short break. Having never been to Great Yarmouth before chose the Southern Hotel after reading reviews. Couldn't have chosen better, only 3 mins to beach and in the quieter part of Great Yarmouth (which is really important if you want a good nights sleep). The hotel is in a 200 year old property with lots... More

Walking up the stairs through the doors into the main reception area, the first thing that strikes you is the old Victorian staircase spiralling above the reception desk. From behind the desk Sally and Tony give you with the warmest welcome and proceed to show you in and make you feel at right at home. The rooms are well decorated... More

Very disappointed to find this review from "JohnJoker" from Newcastle maybe the clue is in the email address. As we have not had anyone stay from Newcastle since 2009 I can not identify this person however a week before the review we were awarded a "SIlver" award by VisitEngland which would not have been awarded if we were in fact...
