Looking at the posts on this forum there is a huge demand for a hotel around Dulwich. Even just looking at the weddings/ births threads. Not everyone can squeeze into the Victoria Inn. A hotel would create jobs too. Bring it on ( as long as it does not try to be too expensive- in which case they would have to seriously upgrade the pub food).

A hotel lives or dies by the quality of its service, so this can only be a good thing surely?


I'm assuming that it'll largely retain its pubness downstairs?


"it'll largely retain its pubness downstairs" My, my, one superfluous letter could give that a WHHOOOOLE new meaning!!

Good news. I've been looking for something like this for friends and family to stay in when visiting, actually was hopeful The Dog would have a few B & B rooms and surprised and disappointed when I found out this wasn?t the case. The biggy is going to be how much they are planning to charge...
Yes this is definitely the Crown and Greyhound in Dulwich Village. There is a notice up (not a planning application notice but an information sheet) outside the post office in Dulwich Village. The pub are proposing to convert the building into a twenty-room hotel. They will retain the function room at the front of the building, and convert the function room at the back of the building into (part of the) accommodation. The pub and the restaurant will remain. Should this go ahead, the building will close for 15-17 months while the works are undertaken.

Would the whole place need to close Jagger?

The main reason we are not getting married in Dulwich next year is lack of hotel rooms for those coming from out of town / abroad....I think there must be demand for a nice, 4 star "boutique" hotel in the area. Would be a boost for the area I reckon.

Worst meal I've ever had anywhere, ever, was at the Dog.

The Dog has gone seriously downhill in the last year or so - not sure if there's been a change of ownership or management but the food is now appalling, it used to be just about passable - great waste, partic for what could be such a great place in the village. Very sad state it is in at the mo. maybe this will improve things. A sensitive, not corporate makeover is required.

    • It took the Tories 14 years to dig that 20bn blackhole. It's taken Labour 14 months to double it.  You cant get rid of Reeves though because the next person will actually be totally incompetent. There are no MPs in Labour capable of performing better than the current shower.
    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?
