“The Crown Hotel is absolutely beautiful. Old beams, creaky floor boards, wood fires. Fantastic food in the evening and the breakfast was enormous! The staff were a highlight of the stay.”

We stayed because the Crown was hosting the 1st Maverick music show, we arrived early but it was no problem checking in early. Millie asked us if we wanted to change rooms as they could offer a better 3rd bed which was excellent. She also arranged for dinner to be taken outside the dining room and next to the concert room so we could have first choice of seats. All the staff that day were exceptionally helpful even though very busy. Sunday breakfast was served by a wonderfully sweet young lady for whom nothing was too much trouble, she was just so polite with lovely smile and a great attitude. We had a great stay. Nothing to say

The room was lovely although it was a bit cold and the spare heater did not work. But overall the stay was very nice. The food was not good! I'd recommend the place to stay but not the food.

This was a weekend break. We had a very well appointed room with sitting area adjacent and en-suite facilities. It was a winter's stay and the room was very well heated. Staff were very friendly and very helpful. The food was excellent and not expensive although the menu was quite restricted. The hotel was well situated in the centre of Framlingham and was full of character as you would expect from an old coaching inn. A most enjoyable stay and one which offered excellent value for money Plumbing was a bit ancient and water took a while to work its way through the system. Once arrived the water was very hot.

The Crown Hotel is absolutely beautiful. Old beams, creaky floor boards, wood fires. Fantastic food in the evening and the breakfast was enormous! The staff were a highlight of the stay. Nothing was too much trouble for them; they were friendly and cheerful at all times. There was a nice mixture of young and old, creating a lovely atmosphere. I can't wait to visit again!

The old world atmosphere and the location in the centre of the small town were good and the staff were friendly and helpful. As one would expect at Christmas the staff were stretched and did not provide information that they should have done about the state of the hotel including the absence of heating in the room I was allocated. The hotel is overpriced for what it currently offers.

The room (No.6) was fantastic with nice furniture, especially the bed! I loved the creaky floor - it just added some extra charm and authenticity to this old coaching inn. The rest of the hotel was also charming and had been appropriately decorated for Christmas. I had a lovely breakfast at the hotel and returned with my three younger children aged 5, 8 and 14 for lunch. All three (different) adult meals were very tasty and large; the children's portion of ham, eggs and chips was massive. The staff were very helpful and also took a picture of us in front of the Christmas tree. Although I like to try different places, if I need to stay in the area again I'll definitely consider staying here. The only thing that I could fault them on was the location of the socket in relation to the table although this could be my fault for not having a power lead to my laptop that is of sufficient length! This was the best WiFi access out of all the hotels I've stayed at over the last few months.

I was in room 2, a very nice double room for single occupancy, with stairs down to the bed and seating area. The Crown is in a very good location, and within easy reach of being able to drive to surrounding areas for sight-seeing. I ate a few times at The Crown, and on each occasion I thoroughly enjoyed the food. Overall, I found the staff to be lovely and very helpful. (Any issue raised with the Manageress was dealt with speedily. If resolution was within her power, it was dealt with quickly and nothing was ignored).

Loved the feeling of it being a very old building. It has not been spoiled by too many modern alterations Pleasantly surprised with the room as it was different to the one we expected to get after seeing the picture at the online booking. If all your rooms are this good perhaps you should change your online photos.

The Crown is full of character and a wonderfully old building. Some of the rooms had poor views i.e brick walls. Staff although extremely friendly not always efficient. Too expensive compared to comparable accomadation.
