Fantastic service and beautiful scenery in the surrounding area. If you’re looking for a night or weekend away, I would thoroughly recommend trying this out! I booked last minute and they did not disappoint. The staff were really friendly too who gave us an upgrade for our anniversary. Will definitely be back. 10/10

Nice location and by taxi from Heathrow +/- 20 minutes. The stay was okay, the rooms were a bit basic for the price. Everything was clean and a good bed.

You have to be clear that there are two parts to Amersham - the new bit where the station is located and then right down the hill, Old Amersham, as quaint an english high street as you will ever find. Thsi concerns the older part. The street is basically one long, wide road with boutique shops spread out at intervals and the prices to match for this kind of location! There are several eateries in the area both on the high street and off. The pleasure of Old Amersham is the beauty of the buildings; glimpses into little courtyards; the covered market area. It is delightful to the eye. Nothing much to do there. Visit the church and sit and eat or drink surrounded by a feast for the eyes.

Great if you are stopping over for business - my stay was for leisure a small break - as a couple we like our food and history so this was perfect - a shame the museum and certain restaurants are not open on a Monday/ Tuesday. Overall stay was lovely met some characters in the local inns and in the park. Do research into what is open on certain days. We stayed at The Crown and it was great even caught a ghost on camera. Overall the village is quaint and has a handful of shops that are different and unique and well situated to the area. First night stay we went to Hawkyns thd food melted in your mouth and was superb. Easy to get to and walked to and from areas. The second day which was our last we went to The Kings arms to eat on the Monday was very quiet. Both loved the buildings and the history that came with them. We were told they do tours and a haunted pub tour. Will definitely come back in the future.

We enjoyed the restaurant that is inside The Crown Hotel.
We enjoyed the restaurant that is inside The Crown Hotel. It is called Hawkyns and serves the most delicious Indian food.
The evening was a celebration thanks to Chetan and Rohan's friendly service.
Amersham is a wonderful small town and I look forward to exploring it further.

The olde world atmosphere is amazing, with a laid back feeling yet the service weithin the many restaurants and eateries is excellent. Everyone we met wanted that our experience in their facility was the best we could attain. This is the place where Oliver Cromwell's wife was born, the place of the Quaker martyrs it is a place of Tudor buildings and Georgian buildings, untouched on the outside. The Saracens Head Inn in a Tudor building with low beam ceilings, horse brasses hanging on the low slung beams. On one beam there are horse brasses of old style depictions of the former English coins before decimilisation. farthing, half penny, penny. It has a varied menu of food for lunch and dinner all cooked and presented in excellent fashion. We also tried the Mughal Indian restaurant in the high street the food again was excellent, the service friendly, attentative, respectfu and the portions large.l

We used to live locally but moved to the coast about 15 years ago, so yes, we are biased. Old Amersham is a fine old town with many pubs and
restaurants, well worth a visit if you haven't been before.
It was also used in many of the TV series of "Midsomer Murders"
Do a little research before coming and you will find plenty to keep you busy for a day at least.
Located in Amersham's Old Town, the Saracens Inn exudes old-world charm, with its rustic decor and exposed beams creating an inviting ambiance into the pub. Our room boasted a large and incredibly comfortable four-poster bed. The staff were helpful and friendly, explaining us the quirks of the vintage toilet mechanism (no, it's not broken!) Additionally, full English breakfast prepared by the staff was a delicious treat, setting us up for the day ahead. Excellent location to visit old Amersham and hike in the Chilterns.
I had quite a surprise when shown to my room - it was huge. Even if I had been a family of 4, it would have been a big room.
The breakfast also exceeded expectation. None of the usual hotel offerings of pastries, cereal and toast but a selection of cooked breakfasts. I chose the French toast which came with bacon, cheese, maple syrup and blueberries. It was lovely.
Lovely old hotel in a nice location. Ideal for travel into London via car. I had a massive room with a super comfortable bed and the bathroom was fantastic. Staff lovely and accommodating - I was unable to have breakfast in the morning due to having to leave early for work so they delivered a tray of continental food to my room which was greatly appreciated.
The breakfast was very good, the staff were very nice, and the small town feel was enchanting. There was a beautiful courtyard with flowers. We also appreciated the air conditioning as many places we stayed at did not have air conditioning or fans during a hot spell in the UK. It was nice to stay at a local hotel.
lovely location - right on the village common land. Friendly staff and comfortable bar and restaurant. Quirky but surprisingly comfortable room (but mind your head!). Good outdoor seating area for the hottest day of the year! Great cooked breakfast and continental options available in room - with a fridge.
The public area was very nicely decorated and comfortable. Food menu very good
Location very good accessible to motorway and area where we had a party village and surroundings very peaceful and pleasant scenery.
Room was slightly small and would have put the cost of it at £85 -90
Great location in Old Amersham close to cafes, restaurants and great shopping. The old style, 16th to 17th century, beams etc Very good water pressure for the shower. Fantastic cooked breakfast and good dinner menu and friendly staff to boot.
The hotel was amazing a real old coaching house with lots of character - the bedroom floors were original floor boards and completely uneven which was fantastic - its great that buildings like this are kept in great condition and used!
Beautiful property in the heart of Old Amersham village, lovely beamed rooms with all of the facilities. The bar was lovely and the breakfast was great. Staff were all very professional and helpful
Great location in Amersham. Pub had brilliant atmosphere. Staff all exceptional. Only downside was very hard pillows. Breakfast was incredible. Would recommend this place highly.
Old pub in rural area. Within an easy drive to Windsor. Old Amersham is a nice town. Good breakfast and very good pub food, especially the pizzas. Good value for accommodation.
Very welcoming staff and charming old world ambience yet the rooms were modern and cosy.. Plenty of parking. The hotel is right in the centre of Old Amersham.
