Staff were nice and helpful but lots of flies in the restaurant. This is very annoying to me as well as my family while having breakfast together in the morning.

Great place to stay!
Great place to stay. Clean, friendly staff and nice breakfast. The area is great, very close to Rutland Water. Do not be concerned about being above a pub, there was limited noise and we were not disturbed at any point. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Crown, room was small but clean & cosy, staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was lovely. Hotel is in a good position for looking round the area

Great location for Rutland
Room was small but relatively comfortable. It was above the bar and the noise was annoying especially at weekends, when it went on (outside) until 12.30am! Weekend staff a little inexperienced on breakfast but overall options were good, and owner served week days when the service was exceptionally good. Very good location in the centre of town with lots of interesting places to visit and nearby in Rutland.

Uppingham Crown Sept 22
Food, the tapas, was excellent as was the beer. There was a mix up on check in but that got resolved. The standard double main room is small but had everything and I especially like the nespresso coffee machine to get my caffeine kick! Bathroom was immaculate, would stay again but only for 1 or 2 nights at a time. Location is spot on and on site free parking is ideal.

Lovely one night weekend stay, quirky
One next weekend stay with my daughter for nearby gig. Staff were lovely! Hotel was lovely and old and quirky with uneven floors and low doors, beams etc - very cosy. We had a top room (2nd floor/3rd level) at front but heard no pub or road noise. Just a note, hard to get a taxi, but eventually lucked out with an Uber (few and far between)

Great find
I do not normally review hotels as I stay in so many due to my work but The Crown was a gem. Working in Peterbro' I was pleased to find no hotel availability which led me to come across The Crown only a 30 min drive away. Late booking, late arrival and could not fault it. Superb service, great comfy room, fabulous breakfast and everyone I interacted with polite, friendly and sociable. Keep doing exactly what you are doing - brilliant Refreshing to find such good service

Very good stay.
I was made to feel very welcome by Laura and her excellent team. The room, while not by any means large, was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very satisfying and kept me going all day (in a good way). Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would definitely visit again.

The Crown is an old property. We were told we were in the oldest part which dates from the 1680s, It's recently been sympathetically refurbished. Although there were one or two hitches due to covid aftermath, the staff went out of their way to help.

Excellent location in the centre of Uppingham. Greeted by the most helpful and friendly staff. The Crown was clean and well kept with a good atmosphere. Breakfast (included in the stay price) was exceptionally good with a huge choice and all cooked and presented beautifully. Above all, the staff were wonderful.

Best hotel in Uppingham
The Crown was absolutely lovely. Laura the host and owner was so friendly as we're all the staff. Laura couldn't do enough for us and was so so helpful... Our stay was absolutely brilliant. Fresh coffee from a local roaster with a cafetiere in the room. Nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely go back, can't wait to go back in fact.

Most terrible experience ever
Feel got trapped by the comments. Arrived with my son and husband on a cold rainy night. The owner was not friendly at all, passed us the key at the pub while our room is at 2nd floor... just showed us the carpark from the backdoor in the dark and disappeared. she told us to park in front of coops but actually the inn's parking lot is next to that coops carpark. Very confused instructions! Shower was terrible...,.,the water pressure was small and water did stop in 3-5 mins whereas you just have time to either wash your hair or body, in a fast motion! The lamps and hair dryers were full of dust. I didn't even dare to touch them. Wifi was not working...the part time staff suggested us to use it at the pub. Breakfast ...the owner cooked for us but the sausages were overcooked and were black when serving. Having been staying at more than 10 hotels in the UK , this is my most terrible experience ever! Feel like I was being trapped by the good comments. Talked to the locals after checking out and they didn't recommend it either. I regret not to choose falcon where I had lunch there.
