Crown Inn staff super friendly!

Very friendly staff. Made a fuss of us on our anniversary with complementary Prosecco and mini dessert. Meal was excellent. Room clean and comfortable. Very convenient for our visits to Great Dixter gardens and to Scotney Castle the day after.

The food was excellent and the room we stayed in (room 12) was in excellent condition. The staff couldn't do more to ensure our stay was a pleasant experience. They were all cheerful and anxious to please. We were especially grateful to Sharon who was a credit to the management team. We would happily return to this hotel in the future.

Lovely room, good food and staff really welcoming

Lovely room and location and the staff were all brilliant. Only downside was that our room was directly over the bar so was quite noisy from that and we could hear very loud talking from neighbouring room until gone midnight each night…just unlucky with who was in next room I guess. Not hotels fault, but if you want early night then maybe a different room further from the bar would be better.

Highly recommend

Highly recommend this b&b. Mattress was on the soft side for me, but other than that, it was lovely. Room was clean, breakfast was fantastic quality with lots of choice. Ate dinner here too, food was cooked very well, including the steak. Location great too. Although on a main road, there was minimal traffic noise. Shower was awesome, with plenty of hot water. Staff were attentive, friendly and polite. If I am visiting this area again, I wouldnt hesitate to come back. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We were welcomed by friendly staff and shown to our room. Attention to detail was high. Sat out the front of the hotel for drinks in the sunshine. We didn’t need to leave our seats! The staff were very attentive, noticed when we were empty and brought our drinks out to us. Perfect! Food was brilliant. The breakfast was the best ever! Would recommend.
