Top hotels in Bowthorpe
Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort
We like this hotel and have stayed several times. Our stay was spoiled this time with thoughtless people next door awake and talking loudly at 5am. Walls in the area we stayed in this time are obviously not well made. We will request to stay in the older part of the house if we stay again.

Sprowston Manor Hotel, Golf & Country Club
Hotel was clean and a really lovely place to stay. Unfortunately the room we had was nothing like what was shown on the website and was below average. The room was quite small and the shower was very basic. We asked for another room but because it was valentine's weekend it was fully booked.
