The Crown Inn, Old Amersham

We have just come back from a one night stay when visiting Harry Potter Studios. Perfect location for that. High Street has nice shops. Hotel room felt newly refurbished and for the cost of a Standard Double in one of the outbuildings very good value. We only ate breakfast which was a good standard with plenty of choice. If visiting the Amersham area again we would definitely stay there.

V dark, my mum fell flat on her face up a step because it was so dark. I told the ataff and no one came to help, or even ask if she was ok. Shes 86. Food expensive tiny portions. Toilet squashed in between wall and sink in folks' room Lucky my parents are skinny. Bar staff too cool for school. Not enough space in bar for guests. V expensive rooms. 180 for just a smallish room. Hall carpet covered in stains. They've had this feedback but chose to ignore me so tada going public with it.

I have become somewhat of a regular at The Crown recently as I work a few days a week nearby and I absolutely love staying there. The rooms are so lovely, a friendly, quaint and luxurious feel. The hotel has a great location close to lots of lovely restaurants and not too far from Amersham tube/train station for a journey into London. I will keep coming back every week I'm sure. My job starts early in the morning so I have only been able to make the breakfast twice, but it is amazing!! Definitely would recommend. Angelica Richardson.

My wife and I stayed at the Crown Inn Amersham recently. What a brilliant spot. Great service (exceptional actually). A true quaint, olde world Inn in the beautiful old Town Amersham. Staff were outstanding. Upon checking out I left some clothes in the room by mistake. The team contacted us immediately and unfortunately; we were at Heathrow already flying home to Australia. The team at the Crown Inn arranged to package the clothes and have them mailed back to Australia. Received them today! Brilliant service. Thanks much!!!

Visited the Crown Hotel in Amersham recently. The staff were really nice and welcoming, and the vibe outside was lovely – a great spot to sit and relax. The food, however, was a bit of a let-down. I ordered the smashed burger, which was disappointing. It didn’t really qualify as a smash burger, more like a standard burger, and overall the food felt pretty average compared to the setting. A nice place for the atmosphere and service, but the food could definitely be improved.

Corrine (sorry, I’m not sure if the spelling) and the other staff were so kind and caring when we all came for refreshments after a Thanksgiving service of a dear relative. Corrine was especially good, not ignoring the fact, but saying “sorry for your loss”, and ensuring that we were well looked after. Thank you to all who contributed- from making the food (and the lovely scones) to clearing away afterwards. Your service and kindness made a big difference.

Nice Town to visit, walk around. The inn is an old buiding and with it's charm. Friendly staff. I did not try the restaurant and the pub but was allways with people there.

We had a lovely stay at the Crown, cosy rooms, comfortable beds and great breakfast. To be recommended !

Loved my room with its superbly firm bed, massive walk-in shower and lots of creature comforts. Would have preferred a room not directly above the street but honestly it wasn't a big deal (Amersham's a pretty sleepy place on a Saturday morning - not a lot of traffic related bustle outside). Brekkie was good and ample. Maybe if I would have had to pay for it separately, I wouldn't have been as happy with it, but as it was part of my b-n-b package I was pleased. However, I would be remiss if I failed to mention the spaced out and incredibly nonchalant attitude of one of the breakfast servers. "Yeah man" probably isn't the best way to answer the question of "May I have some more coffee". For the most part this 'dude' was more amusing than anything but he didn't have any clue how to do his job and seemed to just stand around with a dazed look on his face (I kinda think he might have been stoned). Personally, I didn't care all that much but I could see how older clientele (whom I think make up the majority of guests here) might have been incredibly irked. Dopey waiter aside, I'd stay at the Crown again. I found Amersham a pleasant village within easy reach of London (it's even on the Metropolitan Line!). Staff were friendly, the inn had a quaint feel to it and as I mentioned at the start of this review, I really liked the room.

We spent a weekend afternoon late lunch here after a long hike in the countryside. It was a very cold day and the Inn was welcoming. The decor was a combination of modern touches (minimalist furniture) mixed with the very old: wooden beams and floors, low ceilings, pewter bread plates. The food was very good, my only complaint is that portions were extremely small. After walking for nearly 3.5 hours, my friends and I were extremely hungry, and the portions just did not satisfy. Perhaps the portions are larger at dinner. Also, the staff seemed a bit uninterested and service was a bit slow. The menu wasn't large, but had enough choices. My pork loin was perfect, tender and moist. My friend had Venison three ways which was lovely as well. The appetizers of beetroot and blue cheese salad, while excellent, as I said, were on the small side. Everyone enjoyed their desserts of rhubarb crumble, sticky toffee pudding and lemon posset. The boys also enjoyed some rather nice real ale (can't recall the name, but then again the waiter didn't know it either) and I had some good Australian Shiraz. The place being very old, the dining room was rather drafty. They lit the fireplaces just as we were leaving. Although the food was good, I think it was a bit overpriced for the portion sizes. I would recommend going here for a few drinks in a beautiful setting. And possibly for a bite to eat, but don't expect a pub lunch, it's not very hearty.

Wonderfully warm and welcoming bar with local ales a roaring fire and original beams.
