Nice place for a meal. a drink. a cup of tea......It seems to serves the local community well, the young manager is efficient and friendly and he makes the place feels welcoming. More

14 girlfriends enjoyed our Christmas get together at the Crown Hotel. We joined in with one of the 'organised' party nights. We were well looked after (apart from the lack of cloakroom attendant) all night. For a mass catering event the food was very good and certainly plenty of it. The speed of service was good and the customer service... More

We stayed here on Monday evening and although the hotel was busy with a function the service we received was of a high quality. The food was excellent, the bar was very good too. It was great to take advantage of the late summer weather in the beautiful courtyard. Parking was ample with additional spaces around the back. The room... More

Stayed here 27th August. Our room was clean and well furnished, on the 2nd floor with lift access if required. Hotel had plenty of character, with a relaxed atmosphere. Breakfast was very good and included in our room rate. If you can get yourself out early, about 7.30am and walk over the bridge near the car park, go along by... More

I've been coming to the Crown for 30 years on and off because of its convenient location and traditional offering - and although I've changed with the times i'm not sure the hotel has. It has a tired feel now, with ancient lift and creaky stairs and landings, gloomy panelled restaurant, and unrefurbished rooms. My room had a heavily marked... More

No one has been unpleasant but it is extremely apparent that despite previous clients comments about the service here it still isn't taken seriously. The food room and friendliness of the staff is great; they just don't get that waiting 10 minutes for a bottle of wine with only 9 other guests in the restaurant is not acceptable. I really... More

Second time of staying and all I can honestly say is that it gets better each and everytime, ideal location with pleanty attractions nearby! Room cleanliness is great and decor is superb! Staff are really friendly and always helpful! Brewery that owns the hotel has a great selection of drinks available for residents and local town just supports the image... More
