Cosy one-night stay

Stayed one night for an event just literally down the road, a couple of minutes' walk. Easy check-in. Cosy and warm pub, busy with a welcoming vibe. Room was warm and comfortable. Shower room/toilet small so not great if you're a large person, but OK for us (the sliding door was broken so would not pull across totally). Really comfortable bed and pillows. The stand-out feature at this place was the very friendly and welcoming staff! Would definitely stay here again if visiting the same area.

The hotel is located above a pub in Hackney Central. The pub closes at 11 p.m. and I never had a problem with noise. The room was small but had a very comfortable bed. The water pressure and temperature were excellent (and I was on the 3rd of 4 floors). All staff were friendly and helpful. I loved the area - real people, no pretensions, and very few "chain" shops. It's a pleasant 5-10 minute walk to the Hackney Central overground train station.

Fantastic stay

Fabulous guesthouse attached to a brilliant traditional pub both the room itself and the nightlife in the bar made it a great spot. The Crown was clean, comfortable and we can't speak more highly of hosts as we was made to feel ever so welcome. We will certainly be back!! Just a couple of mins walks from nearest tube station the entire city of London is easily accessible and a such a reasonable rate you will do well to find anywhere better.

Great transportation access

Easy place to stay with great access to public transportation but NO PARKING. Don't bring a car, I had a rental for several days and it was a nightmare finding somewhere to leave it. Room could use some touch-ups...a lot of missing paint spots on the walls, and the furniture was pretty dinged up, but it was comfortable and clean. Nothing fancy. Everyone who works there was super kind and helpful. I was warned that there was karaoke a few of the nights I was staying, but I couldn't hear any of the noise from the pub on the third floor. There's a lot of noise from the street below until about midnight if you have a street-facing window, but it wasn't enough to bother me. If you're sensitive, you maybe want to bring earplugs. Do be warned, there are some pretty steep, narrow stairs necessary to access the rooms. Fun area, would stay again.

Nice and convenient place to stay in Hackney. A little old and the bathrooms were tiny, more like a closet but they were functional and clean. Staff downstairs at the pub were very helpful and friendly. Overall a good place for a few nights.

A warm welcome

The welcome at the Crown is very warm and friendly. Staff are lovely. This was my second visit. It's an old building, so no air conditioning and London in August is hot and humid so for me the summer months are not a good time to stay.

It was a room for two nights to watch the rugby at White Hart Lane. Good location for Hackney Downs and the rail to White Hart Lane.folks were super friendly and room was good. Not too much to do nearby, but that wasn't the reason for staying - which was access and location. FYI it's a pub, so super quiet it isn't, but super friendly it is
