      A Perfect Day
      We had our wedding reception at the Crown Hotel on 22nd May 2010 and everything was perfect from start to finish. The venue was wonderful and decorated just how we had asked. The food was amazing. Francesca did a fantastic job at organising everything, we would like to thank her and all the staff at the Crown Hotel for all their hard work. A Perfect Day.

      Nothing was too much trouble!
      What a credit the staff are to this hotel! A big thanks to all of them, they worked so hard to make our daughter's wedding reception so special. Everyone we came into contact with was polite, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The behind the scenes staff cooking etc the food was amazing. I must mention, I think his name is Robert, he oversaw the day and I wish I had some of his energy!

      Exemplary organisation
      Dear Robert and Francesca, We would like to express our sincere thanks to you and all the staff at the Crown Hotel for making our wedding day so special. The organisation from start to finish was exemplary, the food was excellent, as was the service and the table layout was perfect. We have had nothing but good reports from our guests who thoroughly enjoyed their day as did we, and that was all down to you. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Crown Hotel to anyone.

      Praise and Appreciation
      We held a wedding reception at the Crown Hotel on 29th May and would like to register our praise and appreciation for your staff, and especially Robert and Sophia. Both Robert and Sophia could not have been more helpful in making sure the event went smoothly. In fact Robert exceeded our expectations in dealing expertly with the small difficulties that occured on the day. A big thank you to all your staff for producing a very enjoyable and successful event, which we both will remember in the years to come.
