About The Crown at Wells
The Crown at Wells occupies a former coaching inn on the Market Place, a two-minute walk from the cathedral and directly on the site of the twice-weekly market that has traded here for over eight hundred years. The building's history runs deep: Quaker William Penn once preached from an upstairs window after being arrested nearby.
The hotel's rooms are individually decorated, mixing exposed beams and period features with contemporary furnishings, and its ground-floor restaurant and bar are popular with locals as well as guests, serving a menu built around Somerset produce.
Its Market Place location makes it one of the most central places to stay in Wells, within easy walking distance of the cathedral, Bishop's Palace and the city's independent shops.
