Overall Ratings & Reviews The Old Crown Coaching Inn

I had a wonderful experience considering there was a 3 day music festival right outside the Inn. I had a slight issue with parking and luggage but the whole experience had been wonderful. The Hotel Manager upgraded my room.

Stayed for a couple of nights to meet up with family. The room was spotless and very comfortable. Had an evening meal with the family and was blown away by the flavour and exceptional cooking techniques on display.....highly recommended so dont mias the opportunity to sample. The icing on the cake, showing excellence in customer service, was when I tried and failed to book a taxi, a member of staff gave a lift to my wife and I to our destination without blinking an eye...superb. Will definitely stay when I'm visiting the area in the future

A great property with a great owner/manager. One of the best places we stayed at during a 15 night road trip. We also had the added bonus of arriving on Folly Festival day and enjoying the courtyard DJs. We had an excellent evening amongst the locals. Rather sadly though, the owner was let down by his young bar staff who couldn’t care less or find it in them to offer meaningful assistance when we arrived to find roads closed and no parking. Having seemingly been blamed for not knowing and been spoken to as though we knew the area, it was left to us to find somewhere before we paid to park and lugged our baggage across town in 30 degrees heat. The two barmaids do not seem to have accepted the validity of our disappointment because later that evening in the bar we were pointedly made to wait to be served as they continued their conversations and then when we were served we were overcharged. £5:50 for a pint is acceptable, but £7 for half pint of apple juice straight out the carton? Really? Feeling unwelcome we avoided the bar for the rest of the evening rather than expose ourselves to the rest of their repertoire.

Quiet few days away very nice hotel and restaurant can’t fault it

Very efficient and polite staff. Food was amazing.

Room dirty. Unacceptable noise levels

We stayed two nights b&b in a dog friendly room. It was as we expected, an old coaching inn and busy bars. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was very good and the staff were attentive. Good value for money

Great place to stay. The accommodation is full of character, the staff are really friendly and welcoming, good food and the town is really nice. Excellent little coffe shop opposite. Give it a try.

Lovely place to stay staff couldn’t do enough for you

Lovely place, great walks around, great food, great staff

We were unfortunate to arrive on the day of a music festival in the hotel’s central courtyard so no parking available for my disabled husband and deafening noise. The manager was helpful in offering us a quieter room although the noise still penetrated and the smell of bad drains in the bathroom was very unpleasant. The pub across the road was permanently closed and we couldn’t find anywhere nearby open for dinner so ended up with scones and cake (very good) from bakery. The following morning, coffee & granola in the small cafe/gift shop across the road was very good - but our stay in Faringdon was certainly not we had expected!

The room was poor. Not well set up, uncomfortable bed, mould in shower, no glasses for water.. and other annoying things. Certainly would not recommend. The restaurant food was very good and the restaurant staff were very good - would recommend eating here.. just not sleeping here.

Need to inform guests who are staying on a weekend that they live music that shakes the building to its core

Amazing little find. Super friendly staff, excellent food and a beautiful room with a large comfy bed

We stayed one night with our little pooch, running late we rang ahead to see what time they finished food, it was after we would arrive but they put us up 2 roasts for when we arrived!! Great service, pleasant prices and one of THE best roast dinners I’ve had, and I’ve had a few! Goode wine selection and not overpriced, lovely friendly very helpful staff, nothing seemed too much trouble!! Will 100% stay again!

Stayed in this lovely accommodation for a couple of nights with our 3 year old son. Our family room was spacious, clean, tidy and comfortable. Just a tiny issue with the size of our bed only because of my partner being 6'2", maybe it's just something that the inn can consider looking at. The area was really good in terms of shops if you need some basic supplies, café and some good options for food. Not too far to drive to other villages in Cotswolds and nearby areas. Our breakfast here at The Old Crown Coaching Inn was brilliant. We all enjoyed the quality of the food. The staff were lovely and friendly. Will definitely recommend this place..

A lovely place to stay and would highly recommend. Historic building, friendly helpful staff and great food. Housekeeping is excellent too. Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. I stayed in Room 5 and my only complaint was it was a bit chilly at night, I had to sleep with a cardigan on! Also, if you are tall and/or elderly you might find sitting on the toilet challenging with it being so close to the shower door! There is no heating in the bathroom so might be chilly in the winter time. Single glazing due to it being a listed building. If you book meals ahead make sure you get a confirmation. I booked an evening meal for a Monday with friends, only to find on arrival, that there is no chef on Monday nights. This meant me changing plans at very short notice which caused disappointment.

Fantastic service out of this world food . Room perfect. Sadly bed was really hard not much sleep! But saying that it’s the third time of staying and I’m sure it won’t be the last .

so tight car park. room is a mazing staff are friendly and nice bit of delay during check in but its ok

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here this weekend. We booked to stay in the Superior Double Room (also called the Junior Suite) and the hotel very kindly upgraded us to the Honeymoon Double Room (the Master Suite). This is a lovely spacious and tastefully decorated room with an excellent en-suite and a super comfortable bed. It is above the main public bar of the hotel but, unless you want to go to bed really early, this is not a problem, even on a busy Saturday, as it closes at 11pm and not much of the noise makes it up through the floor anyway. We certainly did not hear anything after that and enjoyed a perfect night's sleep. Breakfast is menu style rather than buffet and was delicious. All in all the hotel definitely exceeded our expectations. Thank you.
