My stay at The Crown Hotel was quite enjoyable, thanks to its excellent location and charming atmosphere. The room was spacious and comfortable, although I did encounter some hiccups with check-in and the parking fees were unexpected. Still, the attentive staff and good dining made for a pleasant overall experience.

Although the hotel didn't have air conditioning, which is to be expected in older properties, the facilities were adequate. I made use of the car parking available on-site, though the £12 per night fee was a surprise.

7.2/10

I found The Crown Hotel to be a magnificent building with a regal charm that takes you back in time. While my executive room was spacious and clean, it did feel a bit dated, and I was disappointed by the lack of privacy due to the window treatment. The breakfast buffet was excellent with plenty of options, though I did read some guests had issues with the dining experience. Overall, the central location was perfect for exploring Harrogate, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

7.0/10

I had a mixed experience at The Crown Hotel. The historic charm and warm staff really stood out, and the food was quite good, especially breakfast. However, the thin walls and the lack of ventilation in my room made for a less restful stay than I hoped.

Rooms

6.0

My room was pretty simple, with squeaky floorboards and no way to open the window for air, which was a downside. The bed was definitely comfortable, but I did notice the two single beds pushed together didn't help my back.

Service

The staff were super friendly and accommodating, making check-in smooth. I couldn't have asked for better service during meals; they were always around to help out.

Location

The facilities were decent, though I missed having better management of parking and some modern touches to the room. The local toiletries were a nice touch, adding a community feel.
