This is an old building, which I think is being up rated, but the overall feeling was that the building is looking a bit tired, which is a bit sad because potentially it is a lovely building in a very good post. However, the staff more than make up for any shortcomings in the building. They are all very welcoming. friendly and helpful,

A wonderful hotel.

A traditional period hotel with charming features, a nice atmosphere and spacious character bedrooms. Good range of food on the menu although would have liked more dairy free options for our daughter. Good complimentary toiletries and the fans in our rooms were a perfect addition in the warm weather. Helpful and friendly staff and a big/free car park. A little noisy where we were at around 730-8am, due to cleaning/food trollies.

We had a lovely stay at the Crown Hotel and every member of staff was welcoming and helpful. The room was a little tired but still nice, and the bathroom floor could have done with a good clean, but the rest of the bathroom was spotless. All the little extra touches were appreciated like the doggie welcome pack and complimentary drinks coupon. The range of options at breakfast was great, and we really enjoyed our breakfast. Overall we felt our stay was really good value for money and would recommend the Crown Hotel.
