The staff were very friendly and helpful. Checkin was very quick. Upon realising we booked a smaller room by mistake, we were upgraded to a more spacious room without charge. Overnight parking is free for guests. The room was spacious and clean and was serviced daily with clean towels. The temperature was good and complimentary robes were offered to us. The hot water didn’t work in our room on the penultimate day. They offered to change room for us but we declined. Instead, we accepted the offer for us to shower in another room until they had fixed the problem. The Bar and restaurant had a nice chilled atmosphere, although the bar opening time was a little later in the day so it wasn’t possible to order a coffee in the morning but coffee is served in the restaurant with breakfast. The sauna/spa was great too, a perfect way to end a long day sightseeing but can be busy. The gym is small but complete. The location is excellent as it is only a 10 minute taxi drive from the centre which is very pretty and where you can find many restaurants for meals. Sainsbury’s is just next to the station which is also 10 mins drive from the hotel. If you don’t have a car there is a local supermarket just down the road. The airport is just 20mins away in the taxi. All in all, a fantastic 5 day stay with nice staff. I can highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again.

Spa gets busy and is sometimes unavailable to guests because non staying guests have booked spa days. This means you can’t even use the pool or steam room. Make sure to book a slot for the pool etc in advance.

We spent a night at this hotel to be able to catch an early-morning flight at Gatwick the next day. It’s only 15-20 min drive from the long stay car park of the north terminal. Our room was clean, modern and had everything we needed. We particularly liked the restaurant/bar and the swimming pool at the hotel. The food was delicious. The pool was clean and had a nice jacuzzi, a sauna room and a steam room. Using the pool must be prebooked but is only a phone call away. The staff members at the hotel were friendly and courteous. Overall, our experience at the hotel was highly positive.

The room was great, the staff were lovely and the food was excellent. What ruined it was the loud noise the air conditioning system made throughout the night every 15 minutes or so. My brother heard it too in the next room. I turned my aircon unit off yet the noise continued. Probably should have said something to receiption at the time. Great stay apart from the noise

Let me start by saying that the staff here at the Crowne Plaza Felbridge Hotel where absolutely amazing, where kind, attentive and more then welcoming. This review is not reviewing the staff it is reviewing the hotel as a building. Below are the issues faced. - The loud voices from outside the rooms. - I understand that it was a weekend when I booked but what I heard was incredibly loud and you could hear people outside your room like they where standing next to you. You had almost no privacy, meaning that they would also be able to hear the noise and conversation coming from inside the room as well. There was no sound proofing around the doors and it just seemed poorly thought out especially for a Spa Hotel, the noise also continued through till well after midnight. Floorboard Creaking Above - The room I booked was large with a queen size bed, very spacious, and looked absolutely great, that was until the guests above us arrived and checked into their room. This was such a bad experience as I had an awful nights sleep due to the sound of almost very floor board creaking across their entire room underneath them. It seemed like there was no insulation beneath the room above and the room below. I could hear when they where getting out of their bed and heading to their bathroom their door ect. It was loud enough to wake me up multiple times across the evening when the guests upstairs required to use the facilities. Those are the 2 main issues however not all the issues

I had a pleasant enough room. Check-in was very slow and the staff member did no know what to do. In the evening I heard banging and jumping on floor from the next door room. I called reception to get the, to ask the people in the room to be quiet. They did nothing. I called again and they said it was a child and there was nothing they could do. They told me I would have to move room if I did not like the noise, but the new room would be a ‘broken room’. I refused and told them they should move the noisy people. They refused. When I complained and said I would have to ask their guest to be quiet, the receptionist became aggressive and said if I did not like it I should leave the hotel. I looked out in the corridor and me a lady from the Floor below who had just complained, but the banging continued. When I rang reception again, the French lady receptionist became aggressive again and told me to leave the hotel. I spoke to the manager who was rude aggressive and totally uncooperative. I said in all the years of staying in hotels I have never come across such an attitude. He just shrugged and said he was wanting to get home. I left in disgust and found another property. The manager’s name is Shantarv Tarc. I would say, don’t stay there it is an awful place and the staff (except a man called Tibor) are all dreadful and unpleasant!

A Wonderful Stay Marred by One Unfortunate Encounter "Buttergate" We recently stayed at this hotel and found so much to love about it. From the moment we arrived on Friday night, we were greeted by a very pleasant lady at reception who made us feel instantly welcome. Shortly after arriving at our Room the telephone rang, it was the duty manager asking if everything was to your satisfaction, a really nice touch. The Highlights Our room #114 was impressively spacious and spotlessly clean. It was well-stocked with amenities, free bottled water and the bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The hotel is in a prime spot—very convenient with easy parking and close to many local attractions and amenities. The Breakfast Spread The food itself was delicious. There was a wide selection of just about everything you could ask for to start your day. A Note on Service We had a very disappointing experience on Saturday morning. My wife politely asked an older lady working the breakfast shift where the butter was located. She was met with an incredibly abrupt and rude response: "In the refrigerated area where you would expect it." When my wife tried to explain she had been looking near the jams, the staff member snapped back, "Why would they be next to the jams? They would obviously melt!" It was clear this individual did not want to be there, and her attitude was completely uncalled for hence our 3 star rating otherwise it would be a 5 star

What a beautiful way to start our adventure around the UK. It was a short distance to the Gatwick airport and was about a £25 taxi ride. We were warmly welcomed and they allowed us to check in early without any fee. The rooms were clean and comfortable, we had a nice view of the garden area. We were able to get lunch at a local pub and went for dinner at the restaurant in the hotel ( £40 and £52 ). The service was AMAZING at the restaurant. Victoria served us and answered all our silly questions about the UK. The hotel has a steam room, sauna, spa, pool and hot tub which is really nice to help with the jet lag. The rooms also have blackout curtains'. We got breakfast included and it was probably the best continental breakfast I have ever been served ay a hotel. So many options and all really high quality. Overall 10/10, would recommend it to anyone!! Only downside is that the carpets in the halls to the rooms are not very luggage friendly.

Our room was a spacious “club” room looking out towards a large courtyard area. It was far too cold to explore outside! I had reserved and I had paid for four “club” rooms as this was a celebratory occasion for my wife’s 80th birthday. Reception were very helpful in providing one twin room, at check in, which I had originally requested. The heating in our elder son’s room was not working properly and although reception undertook to resolve this the room did not achieve an acceptable temperature until breakfast time! He has independently taken this up with management after our departure. The buffet style breakfast was of excellent quality and well presented. The staff were courteous and helpful. We had intended to take dinner in the restaurant. Regrettably the menu, although extensive, did not provide suitable choices for several of our family. Too many of the offerings were not unadulterated, the exception being fish & chips which was hardly a celebratory dinner! I was advised that the menu provided was dictated by Head Office - clearly they need to address this! We therefore were obliged to eat elsewhere which was not the same as eating in the hotel restaurant and partially defeated the purpose of our stay. From this experience I would not choose the Crown Plaza group for any future celebration. Although children were accommodated they were poorly catered for regarding use of the swimming pool -only available during breakfast or after 6p.m. - during dinner time!
