Dunston Hall Hotel is a mock Elizabethan grade II listed building in the English village of Dunston, in the county of Norfolk, United Kingdom. The hotel is part of the QHotels group of hotels. The hotel has an AA four star rating.

The hotel is 4.8 miles (7.7 km) south of the city of Norwich and is located on the A140 Norwich to Ipswich road, just south of the Harford interchange with the A47

The current Dunston Hall was built for Robert Kellett Longe. Construction began in 1859 to the designs of the architect John Chessell Buckler and was completed by Edward Boardman in 1878. It occupies the site of an older house, an early 19th-century copy of Blickling Hall, although records show that there were also two previous post-medieval halls which stood slightly to the north and east on the site of the present Hall Farm.

The house was bought by Keith Shaw, a local businessman, in 1991, and opened as a hotel in 1993.
