Weekend away with dad.

Had a really enjoyable overnight stay with my elderly father. The room was excellent spotlessly clean the beds were comfy. The best part of our stay was the breakfast- so much variety, and choice. All the staff from check in to the breakfast were so friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend, and look forward to staying again!

The Crown Plaza lies on the river Avon in the heart of Stratford upon Avon. Clean, pleasant and the pool, gym and spa made it extra indulgent. Within a 5 minute walk of all the bars restaurants and shops who needs the car. Shakespheres theatre is less than a 19 minute walk as is his house. We had a very special couple of days in a beautiful part of the country.

Great service but terrible bed

I recently stayed at the Crowne Plaza Stratford-upon-Avon and had a mixed experience. The mattress was extremely firm, which unfortunately led to poor sleep and sore hips in the morning. Room 3042 also had a maintenance issue—the bathroom tap was barely attached, making it difficult to get decent water pressure. On the bright side, breakfast was excellent with a wide selection, and the staff were consistently helpful and attentive throughout my stay with my daughter. Winter heavy duvet was not great either as too too warm

Great stay!

First time we have stayed at this hotel; stayed on a bed only booking. Room was great and the bed was very comfortable. Went to the Theatre in the evening; it was great to come back to hotel after the play had finished and to be able to sit outside at hotel and have a drink. We were very lucky with the weather though! Would like to come back to explore dining room as well as the other facilities.
