There were six in our party and we booked for Sunday lunch to celebrate a birthday and it was the first time that any of the party had eaten at the Crown. I found it was a good experience from beginning to end. On arriving we were pleasantly met and glad to remove our coats as it had been raining... More

Stayed for one night with breakfast. No sound proofing in rooms could hear the persons in rooms next door - not the best use of the English language. No tea or coffee making facilities in room. Breakfast was an absolute joke. You get better in a Premier Inn and it is all you can eat. The service was very poor... More

My husband and I were keen to escape London for the weekend, and came across The Crown by chance whilst I was investigating somewhere to eat on Saturday evening. Gorgeous hotel with wonderfully comfortable and elegantly decorated rooms. The food is divine; we shared the rib of beef - possibly the best beef I have ever eaten. The assortment of... More

Only a review for the food as I didn't stay the night. On arrival myself and my partner were greeted very nicely, and asked whether we would like a drink in the bar before we were seated. I chose a local ale which was superb, my partner had an apalls cyder, which as always, was good. We had the tasting... More

Three of us had dinner here in February. Two of our party work in high end catering and both thought that they could not have done anything better. The food (from the a la carte menu) was faultless, creative, well presented and delicious with the service not too far behind. We'd recommend highly to anyone and will definitely return when... More

Upon arrival we were given a special A4 sheet of instructions headed specifically for Groupon Customers. This immediately left a bad taste. There was no complimentary tea or coffee in the rooms (this was available to order at £2.50 per cup). We decided to use their restaurant and this was a big mistake. We were recommended by the waitress to... More

This highly-rated restaurant is worse than "Poor" ( the first time I have used the "Terrible" rating). It is pretenttious, desperately wants to be "posher" than it is, has the old British class-system at the fore---not knowing that we don't have it anymore ! They don't even know that the dreaded "nouvelle cuisine" disappeared along with the snobby class-system. The... More

We stay regularly at hotels & I think I am a very fair reviewer. I like to be honest as it is only fair for future guests. The Crown itself is a stunning building & is decorated to a very high standard & very tastefully. It is an old building & there are several open fires which also add charm.... More
