"Location excellent easy to find, parking available on a first come first served basis."
"A lovely old fashioned pub with rooms dating back to the 15th century, so very quirky."

“The Crown Hotel, steeped in over 450 years of history, makes a point of connecting with the Alton community through events and welcomes guests with diverse dining and live entertainment; all rooms have private bathrooms and include free parking. I think its friendly atmosphere and caring approach make it a convenient base for exploring Jane Austen's House Museum or the South Downs National Park. This is a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking a central location.”

Satisfactory Stay
clean roomsoap dispensertea provisiongreat location
The room was very clean and had plenty of space. The bathroom included soap dispensers for both hand and shower use. I found tea and coffee provisions available in the room. The food was excellent and the prices were quite reasonable. The location is great, and the staff are friendly. The room I had faced the car park at the back, a quiet place once the pub closed.
The car park has a limited number of spaces, holding about six cars. It was consistently full .
