For other hotels with a similar name see Crown Hotel (disambiguation) The Crown Spa Hotel (formerly the Crown Hotel) is a large hotel in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England, overlooking the town's South Bay. Built in 1844, it was Scarborough's first purpose-built hotel and has been extensively renovated to 21st-century four-star status. HistoryThe original Crown Hotel was reputedly designed by Malton architect John Gibson[1][2][3] and opened by John Fairgray Sharpin on 10 June 1845.[1] It was one of the first purpose-built hotels in the world as well as the first in Scarborough. The hotel has been a location for television and film productions, including Little Voice, Heartbeat, The Royal, and A is for Acid. The hotel lost its 1978 "four-star" rating in the 1990s and was purchased by a new owner in February 2000. Four-star status was restored in 2008.[1] Redevelopment controversyIn 2005, the hotel overcame objections by local residents and secured approval for plans to increase its accommodation to 161 bedrooms.[4] In 2007, there were successful public objections to decking and a gazebo erected in front of the hotel without planning permission, and to inappropriate artificial construction material.[5] References1. ^1 2 About the hotel at official website 2. ^The Mount- John Gibson at Malton Buildings Group 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://ridings.info/index.php?p=1_17_Scarborough |title=Scarborough |publisher=The Ridings of Yorkshire|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120316062156/http://ridings.info/index.php?p=1_17_Scarborough|archivedate=16 March 2012}} 4. ^Hotel extension scheme approved.
