Room was on 2nd floor and up some quite steep stairs, however all doable and room was very nice, clean and tidy but getting a little tired in places. However I believe the rooms are all going to be given a makeover in the next couple of months. Staff were all brilliant, very welcoming and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. Ate in the bar both nights and the food was great, very reasonably priced as there was a meal deal each night. Breakfast was outstanding and the lady serving was brilliant. All in all a fantastic stay. Thank you all.

We enjoyed a 3 night stay at the Crown Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. All the staff were welcoming and friendly and ensured that we had everything we needed. The en-suite room was clean and comfortable and the meals were generously proportioned. We will recommend this hotel to friends and family.

An old quirky building full of character but the main staircase is demanding. Our room was comfortable and in keeping with the building. Staff were generally helpful and friendly especially Caroline who got each day off to a great start with her helpful advice about the local attractions. Food was good quality with a variety of choices. All in all a very pleasant stay.

Pleased to find a place to stay in London.

A good find as it was a reasonably priced place to stay in Lynton.Comfortable very clean room, nicely decorated. Good facilities in the room. A nice well presented breakfast. Parking facilities were somewhat limited, but we managed to find a spot.
