I didn't sample anything the hotel had to offer other than the room I was in. It was one of the "Boujee" suites, room 29. On first entry it seemed lovely. But it's a good from far, far from good kind of deal. First thing you realise that it's very dark. There's no option to brighten the room. Reading anything requires a torch unless you're directly under the main room light. The lounge area of the room is so dark it's hard to even see the sofa or table in front of it. You definitely need a torch to figure out which is shampoo, body wash or conditioner in the shower. The bathroom only had a curtain separating it from the bedroom. Good luck if you need some privacy in there. Better hope your partner packed some earplugs. Air freshener too because the windows don't open. No fridge in the room. The bath is a nice touch and so is the water which falls from a concealed pipe in the rafters above. It's unique and memorable. But the noise as the water fell into the bath is irritating. The bath isn't comfortable to sit in either. It' The worst thing though is the bed. It's obvious what people come here for. The beds will see some action. My mattress was soft and badly sunken in the middle of the mattress. It's clear what section of the bed endured the most activity. It gave me back pain. 3 hours after checking in, I left for home and didn't come back until it was check out time 2 days later. I made complaints about the bed but nothing was done about it. Never again!

Staff very friendly and helpful. Amazingly over the top decor but fun. Pool very clean and refreshing. Thai restaurant food incredibly good. Plenty of areas to chill out and relax with attentive staff.

Everything was near enough perfect however there was a lot of dust in the bathroom cupboard, the lights were very confusing and didn’t turn off or on when you would press them. However the worst part was the bed, it was so hard that we ended up leaving at 5am to go home and get some actual sleep !

Staff didn’t have a clue what they were doing, always hidden charges. Arguing between themselves in the background. Whenever I mentioned anything that wasn’t written down (getting charged more than was said) they’d look at me and talk to me like I was a massive inconvenience. Over rated tbh, food was average.

The room was stunning! But for that price i would expect a kettle and tea and coffee facilities in the room. Also a curtain for the bathroom wasnt pleasant when the bed is directly next to bathroom. I would say its overpriced by a long way!

The hotel is beautiful our bedroom was on main road and there were some cobwebs above the shower. Also there was an air freshener that was so so strong and I didn’t live the smell. I can see the appeal and I knew when booking the rooms looked dark but I think I prefer more modern. The staff were lovely, restaurant was very nice and even when we thought we missed breakfast staff were very accommodating. Definitely happy to experience the hotel.

The hotel is extremely unique and the décor is great. You can see the attention and investment, and I'm sure it's a lovely experience in the right room. However, our room was very expensive (£250 pn) and was very small. The listing said Queen bed, it was a double. The bathroom was right by the bed's headboard, which didn't even have a bathroom door (it was a curtain)! Then to wash your hands you need to walk around the bed to the other side of the bed after using the bathroom - awks. There was minimal walking space around the bed too (less than shoulder breadth). The room was super dark and we had to use our phone torches to see in half of it (yes the light was on) but I appreciate that is partly due to the atmosphere of the room. Parking is terrible and should be more obviously stated - it's a free for all! Food and drink was good but pricey, as expected. The outside pool was lovely and so was the afternoon tea. Overall I'm sure this is a great place to stay, but in the right room for the right price - which this wasn't. We would recommend waiting for one of the better rooms or paying half what we did.

Never again
Over priced for what you get. Decor was over the top and the room was tiny! We paid for a deluxe double room and really the room is the same as a standard room. Tiny wardrobe and poor shower. Nothing romantic about the place instead rather seedy and cheesy.

We stayed at The Crazy bear for our wedding night. On arrival the younger lady on reception (didn’t get her name, dark hair very polite) was extremely welcoming, happy to see us and remembered it was our wedding day. She was very informative, offered to collect our bags and showed us to our room. We had afternoon tea and evening meal at the Thai restaurant (left a review on Open Table) which we have mixed reviews. The hotel room was as expected, decor was ok, it was highly cleaned, a downside was that the tv was a bit crazy, poor quality channels or, we could purchase out of date movies at a high cost, not really the service expected from a higher end hotel. The service in the bar was good, the waitresses were great, the cocktails were amazing and the hotel overall was good. Some of the staff really make us want to return again, not to stay but to eat in the Thai Restaurant and to have cocktails in the bar. We do need to say that the younger lady at reception was outstanding! Our waitress in the Thai restaurant (Frederica) was amazing, a real credit to The Crazy Bear. We hope they are both appreciated for the work they do. We will eat in the Thai restaurant but not stay.

Really poor service, at dinner I had to ask for a second drink which took over 20 minutes as they forgot. For the swimming poor you have to walk through the bar with no charging rooms by the pool. This is not a 5 star hotel. 3 stars at best.

If you don’t like confined spaces.... swerve!
On check in my mother and I asked about the room, the receptionist told us it was a nice room. When we got there it was a king bed (not appropriate for family). We were shown to our room and it was dark and claustrophobic (no windows) myself and my mum and a terrible nights sleep because of this. You can’t fault the facilities but there should be a warning before you book to alert customers to say “if you do not like confined spaces please speak to reception”. I spoke to the lady who showed us to our room and said I don’t think I’ll manage in here, she abruptly said there’s no other rooms. I was disappointed for the size of the room and the lack of windows when I paid £450.00 for one night and this did not include a cooked breakfast.

Quirky hotel with wild decor and a feeling of opulence- suitable for “couples”. There was a slight musty smell throughout the hotel and in the room. Room was too cold, even though we whacked the aircon up to the max. No turn down service on Christmas Day, which was disappointing given how much we had paid. We had a deluxe room but there was still barely any space to walk round/get in and out of the bed. Our room was in an outside building which meant we had to wear coats to get to breakfast.
