Norfolk Guest House Inn

Since my son now attends University of Guelph, I have needed to stay in Guelph overnight multiple times over the last year. I haven’t chosen the same place twice because each wasn’t quite what we were looking for. Norfolk Guest House is very well priced for what it offers. It is in a very good location, parking was easy (and free!) Breakfast was included (and made to order!) The host and house were both lovely! I have found my place in Guelph. Thanks!

This was the best decision I made for my 5 days trip to Guelph. Wi-Fi, parking and breakfast are included in this charming cozy house and what a great healthy breakfast everyday! I would recommend to anyone travelling to Guelph!

It's an expensive old fashioned way to stay walking distance from downtown Guelph. This is a traditional b&b with non-traditional Airbnb style no-contact self check in and a door code. They provide free parking on site for small cars. Unfortunately, there is cleaning equipment around the hallways including vacuum. A full mop bucket blocked access to the common fridge on the upper floor. We stayed in the second cheapest option, Pandora. It has a queen foam mattress that is pretty soft -- your feet will be higher than your head. There are 2 armchairs, a table that could be used as a desk, blackout drapes (that don't let in the morning light), a tiny closet with many hangers, and a full bathroom with a jet tub, rainhead shower, handheld shower, black toilet and black sink. Some of the white towels were stained or shredded edges. They provide liquid hand soap and shampoo and conditioner but the actual contents of the pump containers do NOT match the labels, so beware if you have any allergies or sensitivities. (They contain standard cheap soap, shampoo and conditioner). Bring your own robes and slippers. We were not able to adjust the heat and it was fairly warm. Free WiFi. Water is softened so there are a couple of dispensers to get good drinking water upstairs and downstairs. They do not provide decaf tea or herbal tea so bring your own. Jen cooks breakfast between 8-9:45 am and does a nice job. They provide yogurt, orange juice, watery light brown coffee (not good), zucchini walnut bread (dry and boring) and yogurt fruit granola parfait (good). She also offered us a free cooked breakfast of one egg huevo ranchero on a thick potato latke with tomato basil arugula salad. That was actually very good and much appreciated. The owner Jan was around at checkout and charged us for our stay. They do prompt for a tip which is funny because of the self service aspects of the stay. On the bright side the room was $200 including taxes and fees, but other rooms are well over $400. It's not for everyone. We would not stay again.

The Turkish room is lovely. The bright colours made for a cheery stay, and thr linens and oleasure to cozy into. The bathroom is a couple stairs down, a unique and fun feature when choosing tobstay outside of big brand hotels. Exceptionally quiet was my favourite highlight

Not a good experience. They’re not set up properly -No privacy. No security. The place felt dirty and did not feel secure. Would not recommend.

We had an amazing night. Loved the whole house, beautiful decor and an amazing breakfast prepared by sweet Amy! We will definately be coming back and already have our next room picked out!

Very flexible arrival arrangements - great for our late flight arrival. Really friendly and helpful host - lovely property!

It was just an overnight stay on my way to a destination. I would remind folks that when they book their room to contact the guest house to get the access code to the front door.

Great spot close to downtown. Property is beautiful and the room has many great amenities.
