Great location with free on site parking.A lovely,old hotel with all the attributes you will love and appreciated Especially one which is over 350 years old. A very nice beer garden at the rear was also a bonus.Friendly,helpful staff who also served up a delicious breakfast.All in all,a very pleasant stay

Not one one for general moaning but the only thing I can mention in a negative manner is the the size of our particular bedroom.It was a tad on the smaller side.Manageable for a night but any longer,it may have caused issues.This is the only aspect of our stay that stopped me giving the hotel a perfect 10 score.

The property was very nice and the room was comfortable and very clean and a lovely size. The breakfast was very nice and nice and hot and a good choice. The lady that was serving breakfast was very helpful and very friendly. We had an evening meal which was very nice. It was a very relaxing place to stay .

We brought a fe round of drinks and the staff was very helpful but every round was a different price even though we had the same. One morning at about 7.20 the music went on in the back quart yard it was a member of staff I thought that was in appropriate as a lot of the rooms backed onto the quart yard so if you wasn’t up then you would have been .

On arrival the restaurant was packed and had a great atmosphere! Found the room to be cosy and clean. Check in and out was breeze which is always helpful and the staff were very pleasant. The hotel benefits from its own free parking which takes the stress away of having to find somewhere to leave the car and the location is perfect for a short stay in Knutsford.

The noise from the cleaners in the morning and the emptying of recycling bins etc. Avoid room 5 if you don't want constant foot traffic coming past your room.

Really lovely traditional pub and that felt like a romantic British pub you would see featured in a mushy American Christmas rom com (e.g. The Holiday!) Especially with the tasteful and traditional Xmas decs. The food and atmosphere were also excellent.

Small complaint - the Bathroom was a wee bit chilly, but we warmed it up by keeping the shutters closed and the door open to let some heat in. But the hotel value, interiors and charm of the pub and experience make this only a very minor thing. And shouldn’t put you off from staying there.

Very polite staff who were always available and willing to help with anything they could. Food was great although not a massive menu.Our room was serviced every day during our 3 night stay which we didn't expect so bonus points there. All in a great stay, thanks to all the staff.

Room was slightly cool even though the heating was on. There was an electric oil heater left in the room for us witch we had on and warmed the room. Can't complain because it was absolutely freezing outside.

Lovely staff, great bar & restaurant. Breakfast was included which was of a very good standard.

The only downside was that our room overlooked the pub garden. It was extremely noisy when we were trying to go to sleep around 10pm. This wouldn't be a problem if you were out yourself & returning to your room after 11pm (when the noise died down), but we were there to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday, so were having reasonably early nights. The weather was lovely, so the pub garden was full. This wouldn't be as much of an issue in the colder months when the garden was less busy.

The breakfast was second to none. Cooked to perfection. Normally vegetarian sausages are over cooked and dry. The temperature was fantastically hot too. We had a highly successful Sunday lunch too. The only thing I would suggest as an improvement would be to have some lined curtains in the bedroom. We shut the blinds but the street lamps from the high street below were shining. This was not too much of an issue due to the time of year I wouldn’t appreciate it during the summer.

It was all perfect.

The Rose and Crown was perfectly situated for us as we travelled from Scotland to France . Matthew and his team were so helpful , friendly and professional and couldn’t have made our stay more enjoyable . Ed was a star ! Excellent customer service throughout our stay and Matthew was the best in managing everything we needed and his team . Super dog friendly with lovely dog areas , segregated from non dog areas for non dog lovers yet we didn’t feel compromised in any way . Great menu with good choices which we thoroughly enjoyed . Very comfortable bed

There was nothing we didn’t like at all but noted that the pillows could do with being renewed . They were a bit flat and old ! Shower head leaks and needs replaced .

Our whole stay was amazing. Staff are helpful and friendly, there's parking just outside (around the back) breakfast is included (continental and full English) The room was comfortable, nice touches of hand soap, shower gel and shampoo plus tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. There's a fan and a heater in the room, for all seasons. There's a hairdryer too. We stayed here to attend a nearby festival. We had time to visit local shops on the lovely high street and a makers market too.

There was nothing to dislike

Travelling with Dog: Minnie was made to feel very welcome. She came down to eat with us. There is a short walk directly behind the Inn and a larger field one block down the quiet road to the castle. The room was spacious and warm and comfortable. It was quiet. There is a good restaurant downstairs and we had tomato soup and Margarita pizza which was very nice. There was plenty of free parking. There were Apps on the TV.

Travelling with Dog: we feel £20 supplement for a dog is a bit steep and affected the 'value for money' rating. The only vegetarian dish on offer had sold out, but we still ate well, see above. Wifi is only available in the Bar/Restaurant area. This was fine for us as we travel with our hub anyway but is useful to know.
