The Old Rectory is a lovely clean, bright and friendly place to stay in Kings Lynn and in walking distance of the shops etc. We had a lovely big room, with huge bathroom and a lovely large bath and a separate shower. The room was lovely and warm, and the bed was very clean and comfortable. Towels provided were lovely... More

We arrived first and tried to pick the best room, as a group somebody always gets the box room but here all 4 fours were stunning and the refurb is amazing. Great breakfast and some excellent recommendations from the host as to where to visit in the area. If you're going to stay in Kings Lynn we'd highly recommend it.

Very clean accommodation. We asked for a top room and got one - beautifully dual-aspect. It's a lovely building in its own right. The proprietors are friendly and helpful and cook a mean breakfast - although no sausages. Great location just across the park from the railway station, and not on the main road like a lot of the other... More

Our basement room was relatively small, but light, with two windows, and the bathroom was also light with its own window. Both the bedroom and the bathroom were extremely clean, and the white bedding and towels were spotless. The 'tea-tray' was also extremely well stocked. Breakfast was good [a combination of self-service cereals and toast, with eggs, bacon etc cooked... More

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights at the Old Rectory. We previously stayed at another B&B in Kings Lynn, and were determined to find something better this time. The Old Rectory did not disappoint us! First of all, they have off road parking. Our room was beautiful, light and well furnished. The bathroom was huge, with a bathtub... More

Stayed in this nice b&b recently and would have given more more stars but the room we had was very small and in the basement..when I inquired about the other rooms I was told they were the same price as mine. They were double the size and very lovely. I think that we should have at least been given a... More

During the 3 nights we stayed at The Old Rectory we found the owners both pleasant and very helpful. Our spacious room was clean and tidy with refreshments and biscuits supplied daily. The breakfasts were more that adequate, with a variety of cereals, fruit, yogurts and freshly cooked fry ups. The Hotel is ideally situated for travelling around the area... More

Wonderful room, large bathroom, very clean. Close to town center, yet very peaceful. We had a good night sleep with the window open in a comfortable bed. Cooked breakfast friendly served, who can ask for more.

Its been difficult in the past to find somewhere nice to stay in ths area, however The Old Rectory fits the bill. Its clean and quiet and yet not far from the centre of Kings Lynn.
