Absolutely beautiful hotel situated in the middle of Stratford upon Avon literally a minute walk to Shakespeare’s birth place home. The staff are so helpful and nice. We arrived late yet still able to grab dinner in the restaurant at 9pm. The food here is outstanding. Breakfast included also on point. Truly we didn’t have anything negative to say about our stay.

This is our second time visiting because we loved the place the first time. We stayed in 303 this time. Unfortunately I would not go back again. Room was constantly plagued with sewage smell. The staff tried to help but were unsuccessful in resolving the issue. On New Year’s day even the ground floor bathroom had to be shut for a period of time because of the same problem. Also throughout our stay we had no heat in the room and it was freezing temps outside. The staff brought us a small heater which did help but that made the already small room even smaller. The food was lovely and so were the staff but when we complained about the issues we were offered a small discount for another visit. Hence we will not be going back again. It’s worth a visit but just make sure you don’t stay in room 303.

Room was clean but cold. We had to ask for blankets and a heater. The staff at the front desk didn’t know where the key sites were which was unusual given that the town is very small and there are only 3 main sites to visit. The restaurant was good but very rushed.

Good and bad

Location was perfect for shopping and restaurants. Our room was OK, bed was comfortable. We were given a handicap room next to the elevator, which we did not request or need. The bathroom was large but when taking a shower water was everywhere in the bathroom. The voice in the elevator could be heard in our room every time some one used it and overall the room was small and very dark, even with lights turned on. I did appreciate the history of the building and the breakfast was delicious.

I wish we had stayed at this hotel for more nights while visiting the Cotswolds and Stratford instead of booking another hotel in between Bath and here. Our room was recently redone, very clean and comfortable. Parking was across the street, literally just feet from the hotel.
