Spent just one night here last week. Our room - no. 9 was beautifully clean and quite spacious with views over the fields to the river. The bathroom was large but the basin taps were designed for appearance not for practicality and were also loose and the bathroom floor was exceedingly slippy - quite dangerous after a shower. The staff... more

My wife and I have just stayed for the sixth year running at the Crown and Castle. This time we took advantage of their five night package (Sunday to Thursday), very good value with the bonus of, among other things, free entrance for two to Orford Castle (amazing views, well worth the climb, and from 30 June you also get... more

We have just come back from The Crown and Castle after a three night stay, we knew that this hotel was a good choice as we had it recommended to us by a freind, after many years in the travel industry we are a little spoilt by our experiences and I have to say that this was one of the... more

Stayed here for four nights on a repeat visit very recently. We enjoyed our break a great deal. Found the service worthy of special mention and the quality of the food well up to good London and international standards. The menu at dinner varied commendably on a daily basis, not by much, but by enough to make a real difference... more

We chose this hotel because we felt the standards would be high and their publicity promotes this idea. The staff are very well trained, but head waiter over solicitous in his enquiries, the experience was patchy. Nowhere to sit in the too small bar, repetative menu on 2nd night, both night problems with my food, 1st night cold fish 2nd... more

We stayed three nights and really enjoyed ourselves looking forward to each breakfast and each dinner. The dinner menu changed a little each day which was just right and the wine list covered the price / quality spectrum really well. The service was excellent and we felt the hotel put the emphasis on just the right priorities in an individual... more

We have just come back from 2 nights at this hotel and we were not disappointed. Most of the reviews on this site are accurate and match our own views (biggest exception is the comment about the steak - I had this and it was excellent, perfectly cooked and very tasty, nothing like the other reviewer had experienced). I liked... more

We stayed at the lovely Crown and Castle recently and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We stayed in one of the garden rooms, which we loved, it was large and airy, with a little garden area at the back. The bed was huge and very comfortable and the room and bathroom were immaculately clean. We brought our dog with us and the... more

My partner and I have stayed on many occasions at the Crown & Castle Hotel in Orford, Suffolk, over the past five years. From the moment we enter the hotel reception, where we are always warmly greeted by a very genuine member of staff, we immediately feel welcome. We booked in for a one night stay last night (11/06/09). After... more
