The hotel is a large old inn on the outside, but inside is modern, clean and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and looked after us very well. For example: we were shown to our room on arrival (never had that before) and were a font of knowledge about the various local walks and sights. There is even a map painted on the ceiling of the bar! Restaurant was an excellent source of hearty and freshly cooked meals (breakfasts and dinners). Highly recommend.

Very welcoming

The hotel staff were very welcoming. The room was lovely and clean and there was a choice of teas, coffee and hot chocolate with biscuits in the room too. The breakfast at this hotel was fantastic and the choice is amazing.

The hotel is such a great location & lovely inside. The cons: no fridge which can be tough if you have a little one. Also, no charge point for electric toothbrushes. Parking is a gamble. There are paid for parking nearby but a shame the parking spots aren’t reserved for guests. Also, we got stung by the breakfast drinks. We didn’t realise until the end how much we were spending on hot chocolates & lattes. I think the hotel should give you a bill at the end of each breakfast so you are made aware exactly how much you are paying for drinks. The hotel staff were very friendly & it was a great stay otherwise.

Pooley Bridge Crown Inn hotel

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable but noisy at night outside, and lacking air con, which was a bit of a issue as it was too warm not to have the window open. Food was standard we felt and a bit over priced for the quality. The curry was very mild and while the food was ok it lacked a bit of love.Parking if you were lucky was outside otherwise at a farmers field 600 yards away. Busy busy place to visit. Our room was rwo floors yp and with a dog was a little tricky to navigate but ok with caution. Overall 6/10 for me.

Good location but slow service

Good location, comfy bed but slow service and no consistency in the quality of food served at breakfast. Sat in the residents lounge but no one took our order. We were ignored by staff. Brought all of the above up at check out and the lady behind the bar simply said "oh". No apology for poor service offered. Left feeling short-changed considering what we paid

Relaxing stay

Room 3 was a converted out building next to the inn, the room was small but comfortable as i was on my own, modern decor and new, bed was very comfy and bathroom was spacious and nicely furnished with a large rainfall shower and very clean. Amenities in room very good with a good selection of fresh coffee and tea, fresh milk is provided and huge flat screen tv which can be angled on wall mount for perfect viewing. Also a fan is provided which helps keep room cool in hot weather. The inn has been re furbished with ample seating and table service in a modern app ordering system which was very efficient with promp delivery of food and drinks with very friendly and courteous staff, food is exellent and breakfast is pre ordered on arrival with a large selection and very satisfying. The outdoor seating is scenic overlooking the river and wildlife (ducks) Only downside is that room 3 is nextvto the delivery acces to the inn and can be noisy from 7am with delivery drivers 😒 good job i was planning an early start to the day.

The room we were given in the annex was very small and not what the write up and previous reviews had stated. It was a lot of small things that made our stay ðifficult. There was no shelf in the bathroom for toilets, milk for tea and coffee had to be collected from the main hotal because there was no phone in the room. The parking was ok but again if we were not able to park in the shopping spaces then we would have to pay to park. We were informed the resturant may close early due to the lack of staff. There are a few small changes that could have made all the difference to our experience. The room we were in, i got the impression from the other guests that their rooms were much bigger, ours could not even fit in chair. When you have been walking all day we really wanted to sit in a chair rather than just having a bed. Over all we were very disappointed, and were told when we arrived that the last room had just gone to a couple who had just turned up and not booked. The staff were lovely, but the price for the room which was not the standard room was not worth the money we paid.

Unfortunately, we didn't end up traveling as had an emergency. We booked 3 hotels for our hiking trip and this was the only one that didn't try to accomodate us in some way. I understand their T&Cs are no refunds, but so were the other hotels, and they kindly gave us a partial refund or moved the dates. This hotel also spammed our inbox with several automated/template marketing emails, but don't actually check their own inbox incase of issues. I was also a little surprised to find they had no parking at the hotel, which they clearly advise you after you've booked but is not clear at all pre-booking, which felt slightly misleading. Although we didnt stay, i very much got the feel that this is a corporate chain or large venue whereas the other hotels i communicated with in the similar area gave a much more personal touch.

Very nice hotel in a beautiful setting. I didn't think it was worth the money as we had to pay nearly £10 for parking and we had to keep the curtains closed as we were over looked by customers on the terrace. There was also a large crack in the sink that had been there some time. The breakfast was tasty, good quality sausage, but would have liked the option of two slices of bacon or two eggs. We had dinner in the pub. Service was poor, we were left without drinks for over half an hour after our meal and again after our dessert. The chairs were uncomfortable. Overall, we didn't feel very welcome, which is a shame, because we were trying the hotel as a possible destination for our honeymoon, next year.

Good apart from availability of dinner tables

Everything was good at the Hotel except that you said there was no tables available for dinner at 7. To 8pm and when we got there there was plenty of tables available so that was rubbish you need to get your system right
