The Spotlight on The Crown

Historic Charm Just Outside the City Buzz

A beautifully preserved 16th-century coaching inn, The Crown in Old Amersham blends rich history with modern comfort. Located just a short drive from London’s major music venues, it’s a peaceful retreat with easy access to the M40, M25, M1, and M4 — ideal for concert-goers looking to escape the city noise after the show. With free Wi-Fi, free parking, and a mix of classic and contemporary rooms (including the famous four-poster suite from 'Four Weddings and a Funeral'), it’s a memorable base for your music-filled weekend.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Crown is a top choice for fans heading to gigs in and around London thanks to its easy motorway access and peaceful location in historic Amersham. After the noise of a packed venue, guests appreciate the quiet, countryside atmosphere for a restful night’s sleep. With flexible check-in from 15:00 and check-out at 11:00, it suits late-night arrivals and slow mornings. Free on-site parking is a bonus for those driving in from venues.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends wanting a character-filled stay with space to unwind
- Solo travelers on a musical pilgrimage looking for comfort and charm
- Couples turning a concert into a romantic getaway
- Fans needing a quiet place to decompress after the show
- Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value beyond the city limits

Food and Drink Options

Dine in style at the AA Rosette-awarded Hawkyns Restaurant, where fine dining meets historic charm. For something more casual, relax with a drink in the on-site lounge and bar. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the bar stays open late enough for a nightcap after your gig. Breakfast is available — perfect for a slow start after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While Amersham is more mellow than metropolitan, you’ll find cozy pubs and local bars just a short stroll away. If your night doesn’t end with the encore, enjoy a drink in the hotel’s inviting bar area or explore the charming High Street for a laid-back vibe.

What People Say

Reviews highlight the hotel’s beautiful historic interiors, excellent dining, and comfortable beds. Many guests rave about the easy access to motorways, making it a convenient base for events in London or nearby towns. The character-filled rooms and peaceful setting earn repeated praise as a perfect post-concert retreat.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the historic building can mean creaky floorboards and walls that carry sound — part of the charm, but worth noting if you’re a light sleeper. Room temperatures can vary, especially in summer, so check ahead for fan or AC options.

The Bottom Line

The Crown offers a charming, restful escape for concert-goers who want easy access to the action — but a peaceful place to land after the encore.

A little bit disappointing

Liked: The room was nice. The bar area was lovely.
Disliked: The location of the room was bad, like trying to sleep in the middle of a multi-storey car park. The menus in the restaurant and at breakfast did not match the ones in the bedroom. There were ants on the tables in The restaurant. My breakfast had balsamic vinegar poured all over it. The fire alarm went off several times very early in the Morning with no apology or explanation
