Fabulous apartment right on the Sea Front overlooking the sandy beaches. Hard to fault, seamless check in due to digital door locks on front door and room door. Room was superbly decorated and clean. Kitchen had everything you could need for a trip, I was there for 4 nights and it was perfect. Bathroom smart and clean. Bedroom fantastic with a lovely view to wake up to every morning. Glad I found this little oasis in Great Yarmouth.

Great place to stay and a wonderful location. Highly recommended. Local facilities are good and right on the seafront. Excellent. Cleans and tidy with very well appointed kitchen and bathroom. Plenty of parking too.

Great location. Comfy bed. Communication seems fast and efficient even if there is an issue. Room could do with a kettle and a toaster. . ( I know there is. Hot tap but not boiling water .. ) Quiet Heating does work well but not instant. Very modern system - but on a cold night you’ll need to wait for it to catch up. Parking good. Check in and out easy. No one on site so can’t answer about service. Room clean. Bed and sheets clean and comfy. TV in the bedroom maybe ?

Cannot fault this place. I frequently come to Great Yarmouth to see a customer and usually stay in a Travel Inn or such like. This apartment was outstanding. Clean, luxurious, well equipped. Loved Suite 3 with the steps leading down into the kitchen with another television. the hot water tap instead of a kettle resulted in even faster coffee making for a cofeeholic and I'd happily stay in that Suite long term. Gorgeous. And everything was outstandingly clean and brand new. It's location on the Sea front as a photographer was also welcomed. Whilst not a massive fan of 'remote' service this was brilliant when i arrived earlier than expected and the access code obviously wasn't working. A minor gripe is not having a small desk to work at, but the kitchen table was just fine in reality. I come to the area several times a year on business and would definitely use this Rampart again.

We found this hotel on Google Maps. It was the only five-star hotel in town. And of course, we checked in. Imagine our surprise when we found ourselves in our "home" instead of a regular hotel. The suite had everything you could want or need on a business trip. The mini-kitchen was equipped with everything you need for any occasion, and everything was thoughtfully located. The service and thoughtfulness were beyond praise. It felt like we hadn't left our own home. Bravo! We promised ourselves we'd definitely return there... to the same room.

Great place to stay. Admittedly part of the reason is that it was right next to the start of a race we were running in - but the studio (which had a small kitchen, bathroom and bedroom) was very nicely done, comfortable and clean. Only feedback is that it was a relatively small bed (regular double, I think) - but the room could probably have taken a queen or king size.

My son and i stayed in suite 8 for the night in January. The hosts were beyond helpful/accomodating when i had a question regarding my luggage. The apartment was beautiful...very well equipped with everything we needed. The cookies and mini milk bottle and the beautifully scented toiletries were a wonderful touch. The location was perfect, and on the doorstep of the beach. The staff at the pool were brilliant. My son has informed me that he would like to return and try each of the 9 suites so we will definitely be back soon! Thank you for a wonderdul trip. I really can't find any faults at all.
