We had a one night stay at The Crown on our way to the south coast. I wish it could have been longer. We found the hotel to be full of old world charm and character and so was our room, with it's beams and creaky wooden floor. Very tastefully designed, well appointed and comfortable, particularly the bed and pillows,... More

I recently took a two night break at The Crown in Amersham. I was unsure what to expect due to the mixed reviews that I have read on this site. However, I was very pleasantly surprised - it is a beautifully decorated period building with a modern twist which enhances its period features. The roll top bath in the bedroom... More

I went to The Crown in Old Amersham as part of my birthday present. I had been wanting to go there for a while as I heard good things. I also saw that it was three courses for £25 but when I looked at the website on the day this had gone and a call to the restaurant confirmed it... More

I booked this one night stay as an anniversary surprise for my partner and I on the first May Bank Holiday. Prior to the trip emailed the hotel and asked, if it were possible on the day, for an upgrade or something just to make it that bit special (have only done this once before, a few years ago, at...

We stayed in the main inn, our room had a huge tub in the bedroom, the bed was very comfy and the attention to detail was great.

We spent Bank Holiday Sunday night at the Crown Inn and thought it was lovely. Our room had been upgraded, which was an unexpected touch and we stayed in the beautiful room 12 (complete with listed, hand painted wall). We had our dog with us and everyone was very welcoming.

Second time I stayed here, the first time was in October 2012 and gave me enough reason to book again. I had been lucky (the 1st time) and got a very spacious courtyard room, so no neighbors above me. Now during my 2nd stay, I was given a room in the main building. As to be expected in old buildings... More

Dear ArnoJa Thank you for your review, I'm really pleased you chose to stay with us again after your first visit in 2012. As you, quite rightly pointed out, this is an 'old house', 600 years old, and our rooms possibly don't have the sound insulation a modern hotel has, we like to think this adds to the charming character!...

We decided to have a quiet Sunday night away from it all and figured the Crown Inn fitted the bill. It was relatively local and the rooms looked lovely. It was not cheap, more boutique hotel rather than Inn, so we were glad not to be paying the full bill, but used a gift voucher with Mr & Mrs Smith... More

We went here for a night including dinner and breakfast. Our room was lovely, spacious and comfortable. Dinner was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was a bit slow but they were very busy but the food was lovely. Would recommend, the building is just beautiful and we had such a relaxing stay

We do get very busy at the weekend during peak breakfast times, and as we cook everything to order, it can sometimes take a little while, really good to hear you did enjoy your breakfast though!

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Crown in Old Amersham, situated at the end of the Metropolitan Line and 40 minutes from London, is the second in a family of modern day coaching inns recently renovated by the designer Ilse Crawford (other works include Babington House). The old timber building is situated in the centre of the historic market town, attracting locals, restaurant guests and night time travelers. The inn’s interior is made up of rural materials – from Ercol chairs made in High Wycombe to traditional plaster made from lime and horsehair. The ‘back room’ with its inglenook fire and view of the cobbled courtyard is perfect for private gatherings and feasting of up to 40, while the bar and restaurant area is the communal heartbeat of the inn. The kitchen serves seasonally inspired, locally sourced food with in-between times satisfied with home baked cheese scones and fruit cake with Cashel Blue while the main menus changes daily. ... more   less
