Good Points: Most importantly the duty manager was an absolute star! She made really all effort to make us welcome and was very efficient indeed! A service with a smile and personal touch that you can not find very often anymore. The room was excellent apart from our little problem in the night everything was brilliant.
Bad Points: Plumbing! The radiator in the bathroom was banging all night which limited our sleep to a couple of hours max and unfortunately marked an otherwise superb stay down.
Further Comments: I would have liked to be warned about the problem with the plumbing in the bathroom instead of finding out at 23.00. However I guess it might not be that obvious since we did not hear anything in the daytime. Very recommended indeed however and we would definitely stay again. We did not get to taste to food in the restaurant but the menu looked absolutely superb and we will most certainly stay again and sample this when we are in the area next!

Good Points: The decor; comfortable bed
Bad Points: A smell of smoke permeating from the bar beneath the room.
Further Comments: The room was well appointed and clean; the bathroom was spacious but the shower was broken which meant that it cascaded over the top of the shower door and onto the floor, making it slippery and wet. There were tea & coffee making facilities but it would have been nice to have had some bottled water. It was useful to have an integral iron and trouser press.

Good Points: This is an excuisite country style public house on the edge of the common. The facilities where excellent and the room I stayed in was stylish with the most wonderful Victorian style bath. The service and welcome was typically that of a family home, full of warmth and genuine interest. I enjoyed this hotel and the location and intend to return
Bad Points: This is not a dislike, but it is worthy of note the room is above a public house, i would not recommend it to someone who likes to go to bed early.

Good Points: Modern, unfussy, functional, clean
Bad Points: Ready prepared breakfast with communal tea/coffee/etc, poor quality of cooked foods
Further Comments: Good for overnight stay but breakfast could have been much better considering price we paid - have stayed cheaper but received much higher quality meal. No late night alcoholic drink facility for resident guests - disappointing having bar close to guests at 11.00pm especially as we held a function at the venue

Good Points: More than adequate. Simple without being clinical and a supremely comfortable bed. Windows that open. Quiet and clean.
Bad Points: Nothing, really. If I have to find a negative it would be the garish blue flushstuff that dribbled down the loo in a bathroom that was otherwise almost luxurious.
Further Comments: We arrived late on a Sunday long after the kitchen closed and checked in at a riotously busy bar. The manager signed us in and then provided an impromptu snack that involved warm ciabatta, cheese, ham and a skilfully-dressed salad. He showed us to a table in the restaurant so we could eat in peace and served wine from an outstanding by-the-glass selection. On checkout, in pouring rain, a taxi was summoned and we were helped with luggage. This is a busy out-of-town pub as well as a comfortable hotel and the byword of the whole enterprise is simply - hospitality. I was very impressed with the Crown.

Good Points: Big, comfy room. Good proper pub downstairs. Excellent position. Good bathroom (which you don't normally get) but smelled damp.
Bad Points: Bathroom was a wonderful size and design - but smelled damp.
Further Comments: Good - pleasantly surprised. But you need to sort out whatever causes the smell in the bathroom!
