There can be few more imposing hotels in the east of England than the Dukes Head. Its striking powder-blue façade, a study in Georgian elegance, is as much a part of King’s Lynn’s Tuesday Market Place as the stalls that have traded here for generations. It’s the quintessential market town hotel – a handsome hostelry with history at every turn, restored and restyled for the discerning twenty-first century traveller.
Stay here and you’ll join quite a guest list. Political icons; princesses; the who’s who of King’s Lynn’s past – the Dukes Head has played host to them all. Today, period charm meets contemporary chic, spacious rooms envelope you in comfort, and the very best local produce is served – in an acclaimed restaurant and a buzzing new bar.

Artisan coffee, inventive cocktails, fine wines and fabulous, flavourful food – the Dukes Head is a dining destination for every occasion that never misses an opportunity to showcase Norfolk’s best. Massey & Co is a former bank turned buzzy bar and lounge, while Turners puts the art into à la carte, with a contemporary twist on traditional British fare and a coveted AA Rosette for its food and service.

Our first visit to the Dukes Head was in 1971 which we enjoyed very much. So coming back to Kings Lynn I wanted to stay again. We were not disappointed, of course the inside has been updated and the hotel made larger in back. Reception and check in was easy, efficient, and very friendly.
Stayed: July 2017, travelled as a couple
