The best scones I have ever tasted. Whoever is their pastry chef a very well done. The cakes were divine, not sickly sweet at all. The service whilst friendly and helpful was rather slow but the staff were lovely and I would recommend the Afternoon Tea, a fabulous experience. At 39 it was good value, we will return.

We always use Mr & Mrs Smith to book rooms for our city breaks and they have never disappointed. However our stay at the Royal Crescent Hotel fell far short of the quality we have experienced from other hotels. In particular, I felt that the attitudes of the staff (especially the door and reception staff) was particularly noteworthy - very unfriendly and on some occasions downright rude. I expect better from a five star establishment. Will be using Mr & Mrs Smith again, but will not be booking the Royal Crescent Hotel.
