Wonderful

Lovely overnight stay, service great, food lovely - extensive breakfast menu, spoilt for choice, we wanted to eat it all!
Good size room, which had everything we needed - not the greatest view, but can’t be helped if you’re at the back of the building. Parking was a bit of a pain, I had to drive around a few times, possibly because the exit barrier was raised which meant that parking was a free for all?
Staff friendly and engaging, would certainly stay again.
We really enjoyed this hotel. Staff were really friendly and efficient and very dog friendly.
Our room was lovely , super comfy bed.
Breakfast was excellent and we really enjoyed the outside seating area.
Husband loves the ales!! 😀
Excellent hotel in the centre of Blandford Forum. The Crown has attractive period features and our room was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The staff were pleasant and attentive. The breakfast was excellent.
There is ample onsite parking.
Stayed here for Teddy Rocks as we had stayed before for a wedding. Yet again friendly, competent staff, always helpful.

Lovely place
Lovely building and really lovely, friendly staff.
The food was good and the Guinness was very well kept.
The room was nicely done but could perhaps do with a refresh.
It was a shame that there was so much noise from 7am which woke us up
What a lovely change to stay in a place with character. The small touches in the room, tea pot, and tea cups, the old styled phone etc. unfortunately the bar was not open on a Saturday night at 12, not even for a bottle of wine to the room!
Very nice hotel and great staff. But i cant mark it any higher as the rooms have the worst sound insulation of anywhere I have ever stayed (at least in room 16). I could hear absolutely everything from the neighbouring room, even light conversation very clearly. I really hope this can be sorted as everything else was great!
The family room was incredible. Exceeded expectations and was extremely clean. Beds were comfortable and the bathroom was wonderful. We enjoyed it so much, we extended our stay for another night.
