"At Home Feeling Away from Home!"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
For over 60 years my family has enjoyed going to Holiday Sands in Norfolk. Through the years the hotel has had many updates and improvements. Now, under the management of Best Western it is awesome. From the time we arrived until we left we were treated with respect and kindness. The receptionist greeted us with a smile was very helpful with our check in. Our room was clean and met our needs. A short walk to the beach yielded great beach fun. We enjoyed the full breakfasts and the kind staff. We truly enjoyed our stay at Best Western Holiday Sands. We recommend it to families that want to make memories.
