    The was comfortable but could have been a king size ! Few places to put stuff down such as a small desk - but minor issue.

    Staff were superb and the best breakfast we have had. Location was great and fantastic view over the cricket pitch. Very clean and comfortable.

    Breakfast was great, and it seemed we could ask for anything, but it would have been helpful to have seen a menu.

    Excellent restaurant, good choice of dishes, including catering for vegetarian.

    Could not work coffee maker in room but that was just us not understanding how it worked.

    Location was perfect as we were going to Gravetye manor for William Robinson garden festival we also visited Nymans & Borde hill gardens all within half an hour drive away from accommodation.The Breakfast & Evening meal was excellent & The Staff made you feel very welcome & could not have been more attentive.

    The entrance to the rooms was up some back stairs via a door saying staff only - we couldn't find the way to breakfast

    Friendly staff, quiet, really excellent breakfast (specially pork and hop sausage)

    Stair case leading to rooms dirty/ clutter on landing/ apparently only one room key and therefor room was not cleaned/ kitchen door left open had to squeeze past to get to the bar / cups in room too small for coffee pods and therefor over flowed/ room relatively clean as was the bath - would question marks in the toilet/ breakfast not available as we had an early start definitely not value for money @£210 for 2 nights - won’t recommend or return

    Quaint village location close to where we’re were working for 2 days

    The bedroom areas away from the main pub felt a little neglected. The entrance hallway to the rooms was really quite unclean with cleaning buckets and mops in the corners and I didn’t enjoy having to negotiate the gap by the wedged open kitchen door to get to the rooms. And generally just a little lacking in attention to detail. I suspect, looking at the cleaning log, that my room hadn’t been used for a while, but the information book with the WiFi code etc was missing from the room, the bathroom lightbulb was failing (flashing) and unusable , the coffee pods provided were old and tasted stale & the mattress could do with replacing as it was quite saggy.

    The Crown is a lovely old building in a beautiful location overlooking the cricket pitch to the rear and the green to the front. The staff were friendly and helpful. I felt reasonably comfortable staying there on my own. The food and drink were generally good. Towels and toiletries were nice and it was nice to have bottled water and a coffee machine available. Bed linen was crisp and comfortable

    Minor thing...breakfast didn't start until after 9.00 which meant we only had one breakfast as we had appointments and needed to leave the hotel by 9 am. That was excellent though!

    The hotel was really comfortable and the bed was great, comfortable and lovely linen and pillows. Jules was super friendly and helpful and the meals we had were very good. Our room looked over the green and the cricket pitch, really lovely position. Everything was fine, good parking and nice surroundings.
