We had a lovely stay at the Crown Hotel and every member of staff was welcoming and helpful. The room was a little tired but still nice, and the bathroom floor could have done with a good clean, but the rest of the bathroom was spotless. All the little extra touches were appreciated like the doggie welcome pack and complimentary drinks coupon. The range of options at breakfast was great, and we really enjoyed our breakfast. Overall we felt our stay was really good value for money and would recommend the Crown Hotel.

Looks great from outside, and very welcoming from the start. The rooms are clean and spacious with great quirky decor and a very comfortable bed. We used the bar and restaurant during our stay and found the food very good and the service excellent. Staff were friendly, and the breakfast was tasty with lots of choice. We would definitely stay again.
