The Crown at Playhatch

The room was in poor condition. The toilet badly stained. The bathroom floor had not been cleaned. The woodwork damaged and unsightly on the plus side the staff were friendly and we had a nice meal . About 15 minute drive to Henley. Playhatch itself has nothing to offer so you need to drive out.

Fantastic service, room and local surroundings!

Exactly what it says it is… perfect for an overnight stay.

I asked for a drink at 10.30pm on a Thursday. I was told ‘the bar is shut, the tills are locked’ wtaf

The relaxed and informal approach by staff did not detract from the quality and standard of our stay.

Great place. Very good value and lovely staff.

Staff amazing, and building amazing. Rooms what you expect at the price point but breakfast was the best in a long time.

Rooms were very nicely made up & comfortable. Food was excellent & staff even better. Bit of a gem of a country pub in my opinion, would happily stay again.

Stayed for two nights. Amazing staff, amazing stay.

Great place to stay. Good food. Warm and friendly staff. Good clean and well presented bedroom.

Really nice pub, rooms separate away from the pub itself so nice and quiet. Clean, well decorated and comfy. Excellent breakfast too

We loved our dinners on 2 nights, breakfasts were very good also. The decor was interesting & authentic. Parking was very good.

Brilliant location, nice room, small but had everything, great breakfast and friendly staff. The only thing I can think of that wasn’t perfect was the fact I couldn’t seem to turn the outside light off but other than that it was brilliant. Will be back

The coffee was very good… most of the staff were charming but unfortunately some were not! The dinner was ok but a bit rich and fussy, the breakfast disappointing and the staff serving breakfast seemed inconvenienced by us showing up on time! The rooms in converted stables were cozy though the bed sank in the middle. Be warned they use a booking system EVIIVO that takes out the room fee a few days before arrival and puts it in pending in your account. It then stays in pending for several days after you’ve settled your bill which basically means you pay twice for your room for at over a week! I phoned The Crown and asked for the pending payment to be removed and was told it takes between 3 to 5 working days which frankly is a scam!

5 star review all round definitely worth the stay

I was so impressed with the friendliness of the staff so helpful and polite. It seemed to me that nothing was too much trouble. That staff friendliness was so important to me and made my stay so good

Bedroom stank of bleach … upon investigation this wasn’t coming from bathroom …hideous Safety light above door to room shone so green all night as to thwart decent sleep One of pair of bedside lamps was broken (lampshade propped unconvingsing on top of lamp base) Towel rail in bathroom corroded and rusty

Lovely room, very clean, comfortable and quiet. Overall great value, especially as room rate included breakfast. We’d stay here again if we are in the area

Lovely big spacious room. Good shower good service. I found the bed a little soft but still slept well

Enjoyable nights stay, room was nice. Bed was below average. Would recommend at this price
