The Crown Hotel, centrally situated in "The finest stone town in England" offers 17th Century style with 21st Century Hospitality standards.

A hostelry has stood on the site since the 17th century with gradual alterations throughout the years then a major re-build at the front of the building in 1909. This has combined a variety of architectural styles with the comfort of modern facilities.

The Crown Hotel is set in the centre of Stamford in All Saints Place, adjacent to Red Lion Square. Stamford is an attractive stone built town with many properties hailing from the medieval and Georgian eras which are favoured with film makers and producers of costume dramas i.e. Pride and Prejudice, Middlemarch and The Da Vinci Code. There are many historic sites to visit in the town and the surrounding areas including Burghley House which hosts the famous Burghley Horse Trials. The Crown really is at the hub of Stamford life both socially and commercially and we can assure you of a warm welcome at any time of day.

Michael & Sue, a brother and sister partnership with local connections, have recently transformed this dated property into a more contemporary and stylish boutique hotel. All the traditional features have been retained whilst the best of new technology has been installed throughout. The two new lounges are cosy and welcoming with comfortable seating and glowing open fires. There is also an attractive, heated patio area for al fresco dining. Be warned; The Crown is a no smoking establishment but in order not to upset the smokers a covered and heated shelter as been erected!

At certain times of the year the Cottage and the Townhouse can be let for weekend breaks at special rates, please contact reservations for prices.


Dining

The restaurants are very popular with locals and residents alike due to the appetising menu devised by Head chef Richard Brandrick. It offers the best of British traditional dishes alongside more european influences and all meals are cooked to order. Local produce is used wherever possible with a noticeable use of lamb from the owner's own farm nearby. During the winter months there is also a preponderance of game on the menu also supplied form the farm and local estates. Visit the Crown in late spring and you will be able to sample the delights of our own Asparagus as well.
