I booked this property as it was reasonable priced and centrally located. There were various restaurants within walking distance. The staff were extremely helpful. The communal areas looked a little aged although the room was clean, tidy and comfortable. The continental breakfast was satisfactory with free refills of juice / coffee. On the whole a pleasant stay.

Stay is alright, but the room bathroom is a bit squeeze. Need to get in and out carefully. Plus there are power cut in the middle of the night. Other then that, the hotel staff are very helpful and friendly. I would recommand for a short stay.

Great Stay!
This was a great stay! We stayed in the family suites upstairs. After a long day of driving the coast of Normandy, it was the perfect place to lay our heads. Quiet, clean, comfortable. Staff was friendly and breakfast was great in the morning.

Could be improved
Value for money i would say yes, the fact they have permanent residents up stairs with kids running up and down corridors and being noisy doesnt help for a relaxing rest and there clutter makes a bit of a eye sore, bikes toys and rubbish. I was also told i would be able to get a evening meal, but then found in the evening kitchen would not be open as told on arrival. Great walking distance to war museum

Quirky Crocus
A quirky little hotel with friendly staff and a “care about the community” feel to it. The food and drinks were good and we spent a happy night there. The rooms albeit dark were clean and comfortable. The decor was different which added to the quirkiness of the hotel. I liked it! More recently I’ve stayed at a luxury hotel and to be honest I felt more welcomed at the Hotel Crocus. This tells me that price and fancy rooms are not always the best option.

The staff here were amazing. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They really made this place what it is. As an electric vehicle driver, I was delighted to see three EV Charge points on site. Breakfast was very good with a range of continental and cooked offerings. The hotel also does dinner, I believe, but we didn't use the restaurant so can't really comment apart from saying that the menu looked very good. Now for the room itself..... Oh dear! This really let the hotel down, badly. In these days of Covid, it was advertised as 'deep cleaned'. There was a lot of dust and, what appeared to be, someone else's pubic hair on the bathroom wall. The bed was fairly comfortable but the tiny bathroom really wasn't up to standard for any hotel. It's badly lit and when you pull close the dark brown shower curtain, you're showering in the dark. It was like something you'd expect to see from the 70's bed and breakfast establishment.

Awful . Didn’t even stay , reception was not open until 11pm as we were advised. Attempts to contact other numbers were unsuccessful. It was not clear what to do next! Did see staff in car park spitting near our car so decided to leave and go elsewhere Would not recommend, looked awful Staff over the road at the Brit hotel were much more helpful than even though we weren’t staying there. Try them instead
