Crowne Plaza Royal Victoria Sheffield an Ihg Hotel
This is what I loved most. The staff are actually friendly. Not the fake, corporate “have a magical day” kind of friendly. Real, proper, “let me help you carry that bag because I’m a decent human” friendly. They remember your name. It makes you feel like a regular, even if you’re just passing through.

There’s also a quiet little gym and a pool. Did I use them? No. I was too busy eating scones and lying in that divine bed. But they looked pristine and inviting, like a spa for fitness people. The pool is a nice size for a quick dip to wash away any travel grime.
The Only Tiny, Silly Problem
Okay, I have to be brutally honest. The Wi-Fi is good, but not world-beating. If you’re planning to upload a 4K movie you made, you might get a bit frustrated. For scrolling, streaming Netflix, or a Zoom call? It’s perfectly fine. Just don’t expect to hack into the Pentagon with it. And the air conditioning can be a little noisy sometimes—like a small, enthusiastic jet engine in the corner. But you can always turn it off and listen to the peaceful Sheffield hum.
