About The Bank House

The Bank House occupies a Grade II* listed Georgian townhouse on King's Staithe Square, directly on the King's Lynn quayside and within the historic and business heart of the town. The building's former life as a bank shows through in details such as the bar, set in what was once the bank manager's office, alongside a brasserie restaurant serving modern dishes built around local ingredients.

Bedrooms are individually decorated in keeping with the townhouse setting, and the hotel serves all-day tea and coffee with homemade cakes as well as a full afternoon tea. Its quayside position puts the Custom House, the Purfleet and the Saturday Market Place all within a few minutes' walk.

This is a good choice for visitors who want a characterful, independently run base right on the historic waterfront rather than a larger hotel on the edge of town.

People say this hotel offers excellent meals, including delicious full English breakfasts and tender roast beef, with many highlighting the comfortable beds and quiet rooms. Guests also mention the friendly, attentive staff and the cozy, romantic atmosphere.

Some reviews mention there can be a lack of proper cleaning.
