Best Western Plus Oaklands Hotel

Stayed at Oaklands for a 14-day quarantine prior to joining an offshore vessel. Elly and her staff made us very welcome and did their utmost to accommodate us during our stay. The spacious lodges (Calthorpe & Barten) and garden, as well as the excellent evening meals and great selection of wines were particular highlights. Obviously our stay cannot be compared to one under pre-Covid days but any limitations were more than compensated for by the friendliness and attentiveness of all the staff. Many thanks Elly for your personal touch. I would highly recommend staying at the Oaklands during the current Covid period should quarantining be a required element of your job. Would like to thank all the staff and wish Elly & Co the very best of luck in the future. Hope to pass by again...Robert. less

During lockdown i have been working more shifts at the Hosptial and I have stayed at the hotel for a few nights as i am traveling 40 minuets everyday to work. The staff have all been very friendly,helpful and professional at this awful time following all of the procedure that are in place. The room i have stayed in were clean and comfortable too. I have also had evening meals at the hotel which were delicious. I will definitely be returning with my husband when it is allowed and safe to do so. less

Although I didn't stay at your residence, I still wanted to thank and give recognition to all the kind people at the Oaklands during this though time. I can not thank them enough for the many splendid home made meals the darlings have been delivering to my door. I don't know what I would of done without them, thier kindness and generosity. It's overwhelming. Best Regards Grace less

Beautiful setting across the road from the River Yare and a very short walk to riverside pubs and Thorpe Marshes. Very kind helpful staff. Double room lovely and clean, very comfortable and bathroom spotless. Well done for supporting key workers - it is so greatly appreciated - I will definitely return in better times! less

During the lockdown I've been able to continue working as an A&E and air ambulance doctor only due to the hospitality of the Oaklands Hotel. The staff could not have been kinder and more supportive going out of their way to ensure I've been able to rest between busy and chaotic shifts at the hospital. My room was spacious and immaculate with a very comfortable bed and a lovely bathroom. The generosity of members of the public buying meal vouchers for front line staff has meant this is another thing I've not had to worry about. The restaurant staff and the choice of menu was exceptional and the food absolutely amazing. By staying open and caring so well for front line staff has in a small way produced a little positivity out of such a devastating situation us to continue to do our jobs and save lives. less
