Bodged Decor and in need of repair.
Always wanted to experience this hotel. Reviews are fantastic and it looks amazing! However... on closer inspection the decor is haphazardly applied and isn’t as practical as you might think. Although it’s a very ‘Jazzy’ boutique hotel some of the design choices cause issues. The room we stayed in was also I need of a repairs. If they didn’t charge previous guests for damage then that’s on them and still needs to be repaired. If they DID charge previous guests then why haven’t the repairs been carried out? It’s an experience but we wouldn’t return. Great to take photos and say you’ve stayed but not worth the money in our opinion.

Poor room
The hotel facilities were lovely. The room was dull, unable to walk around due to low ceilings and no windows. The stairs inside the actually room were dangerous and to steep. Was never asked if my mobility or if I was fit and well when booking this room.....very poor and a ridiculous room for anyone. Not even able to carry belongings up safely!! If I wasn’t in a wedding party I would have wanted to be moved cause unacceptable.

Stunning venue. Quirky rooms. A little TLC wouldn’t go amiss in the classic bedroom though. Fantastic cocktails. Delicious food. Very polite staff. Will return. Tip - if you’re staying in room 306 the fan outside the room does turn off at the end of the dinner service. Don’t be afraid to ask!

This place gives a lot of expectation but does not deliver. The room was poorly laid out and in definite need of refurbishment with 2x iron marks on the carpet, shower curtain smelt mouldy and the staircase needed repainting. I understand the idea of opulence but the lighting is too low and felt depressing after a while. The service and food were also not that great. Not a place I would ever return to and left feeling very disappointed.

Terrible experience, it was our 10 year anniversary so I specifically booked the suite with the free standing bath as shown in the pic and suite as my partner has always wanted to go to make it special. Rather than that we ended up having to follow a staff member 5 minutes down the road to another place in the middle of nowhere on our own, and of course no bath as I payed for. I asked the lady who showed me the room why we have no bath and she said that no rooms in here have a bath but you have a lovely shower 🙄. If I wanted a shower I would have asked for one. It completely ruined our experience as I didn’t book and “garden house suite” which is different from a “suite” on hotels.com. The whole point of going to the crazy bear is to be within the hotel and experience it. We experienced staying in a beautiful shed with nice rooms, I could have done that at home, especially when you pay that silly amount of money you expect to get what you pay for. Once we were leaving the next day I told the staff that I was not happy. At first they said I didn’t have that room because there was a wedding, then it was hotels.com fault for false advertising, who knows...but either way I will be getting this resolved immediately. Anyone who wants to stay here make sure you ring them first and find out what you’re getting, hopefully it won’t be 400 pounds worth of disappointment like mine was.

Certainly a different experience
Lovely suite. Was part of a house that was up the road from the main pub building but they had a driver on hand to transport you when needed. Food was great too, although the service in the restaurant left a little to be desired based on the price. Whilst I don't think (!) we're a demanding couple, having to ask for everything (like water, additional drinks etc) when paying those prices isn't great. That said wouldn't put me off but just could be better, maybe it is better in the Thai restaurant. Overall a different experience and we had a good time.
