The Crown Inn  

In leafy Chislehurst on London's outskirts, this historic pub with rooms sits about 18 km from central London and is within easy reach of Eltham Palace, Tower Bridge and the O2 Arena — a great base for city sights or nearby Brands Hatch.

Recently restored to retain its character with a stylish twist, The Crown offers seven boutique bedrooms, some with private balconies over the Common. Rooms feature luxury pocket-sprung mattresses, Nespresso machines, Smart TVs and Roberts digital radios; the Imperial Crown room adds a roll-top bath and several rooms have Drench rainfall showers.

Relax in the orangery or courtyard garden, sip a drink in the bar/lounge, and enjoy terrace and garden views. The property offers free self-parking and a complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast to start your day.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout the property, desks and in-room phones, plus free newspapers in the lobby and an elevator — convenient for guests working on the move.

Chefs focus on fresh, seasonal local produce in the restaurant and orangery, with covered and open courtyard seating. The bar/lounge pours drinks and a complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast is served weekdays 7:30–9:00 and weekends 8:30–10:00.
