We loved our triple room, gorgeous view from the window.
The breakfast and the dinner we had in the restaurant was great, the bar was very quaint also.
We missed the last bus from Moreton in Marsh, but a phone call to The Crown and they helped us out with a pick up

Excellent, very polite staff, superb small apartment in grounds rather than room in main building....it was quiet, clean & tidy, with the added benefit that I could park right outside of my room....

Room was small, and bathroom without shelving.
The main problem with Room 2 was that any movement from the floor above was audible - creaking floor boards, speech, flushing loo, shower - so loud further sleep was impossible. A clear need for more sound proofing.
Breakfast, incidentally, was excellent.

Pleasant Cotswold hotel
Good hotel in pleasant village. Staff friendly.
Car park has just enough off street spaces but access from street through main arch
is difficult for larger cars do to age of the building.

Hotel and our room were clean albeit a bit tired and could do with a bit of TLC. We have a dog and this hotel is very dog friendly, ate an excellent meal in the bar in the evening and a nice breakfast in the dining room. Staff were excellent throughout, only downfall was the road up to the car park through an archway and then a very bendy narrow road upwards and the car park itself which could be challenging for some.

Room for improvement
Arrived on curry night, which was delicious. Breakfast not great (Nescafé masquerading as filter coffee) under cooked bacon, over cooked egg. Staff are friendly and helpful. The whole place has something of the 1970s about it, the bed was not that comfortable and the headboard was not properly attached so that if you turn over in bed it bangs against the wall, giving the neighbours the impression that Ron Jeremy is on an all-nighter. Such a beautiful village. I’d say it’s good value, but could be so much better.

If you a doubt just book it you won’t be sorry!
It is an incredible stay. Blockley is an amazing walking town. The Crown is clean and affordable. The best part is the staff! Amazing and extremely professional. Breakfast was amazing! Great place for dinner and a pub. The stories the local tell are a lot of fun! And Father Browns church to boot!

Nice little hotel in the quiet village without trouists. People are very mince as well as the staff.
A lots of birds are singing in the morning like camping site.
The building is old so walk softly. If living in the top floor, it shouldn't be a problem.

A well priced gem in a beautiful spot.
This hotel is excellent value for money especially considering the beautiful area it is in. It’s a bit tired in places and the rooms could do with some updating….but the price reflects this. However, it was spotlessly clean.
The breakfast offered was good quality and plentiful.
Evening menu was excellent and superbly cooked.
Staff were brilliant….courteous, friendly and efficient.
Would definitely stay here again.

The service was good. The food was good. The room however, was substandard. The carpet was very lumpy, as if there was no subfloor or underlayment flooring; and the carpet was directly on top of cobblestone. There were four steps up to the bath and tey
were uneven rise and run making nighttime navigation risky. The towels had large holes in them. the room was not serviced and when I asked, they said every other day unless requested. How would I know? There’s supposed to be a sign; there wasn’t. The hot water faucet leaked when used, all over the floor.
I should never have accepted this room!! Especially when I saw other rooms. We were two women and I really felt we got the short end of the stick!
